The new director of operations for the Washougal-based West Columbia Gorge Humane Society (WCGHS) wants to “firm up” the evacuation plan for animals in their care, in case of fires, floods or other disasters.
Megan Collins, a recent transplant from Savannah, Georgia, said that would involve taking the shelter’s dogs and cats further away than the Humane Society for Southwest Washington (HSSW), in East Vancouver, in case of emergencies.
