Our mission is to improve the lives of dogs and cats, and their human companions.
Our Vision
By 2025, through community engagement, the rate at which dogs and cats in the Tulsa area are abandoned, neglected or unnecessarily euthanized will be reduced.
Core Values
Teamwork
We believe in the power of teamwork and positivity, both internal and external, in achieving our common goals. Practicing respect, empathy, honesty and assuming good intentions will allow us to progress further as a team.
Stewardship
In addition to meeting the minimum legal and financial standards for nonprofit organizations, we believe our responsibility demands we keep our mission at the forefront of our decision making. We will ensure impact optimization through transparency, effective use of resources, and being true to our high professional standards.
Public Education and Outreach
We believe education and outreach are key to long-term improvements in animal and human lives. Through active and compassionate listening to our community, we aim to identify where the needs are so we can be a non-judgmental resource where understandable and forward-thinking information is vital and easily accessible to all willing to participate.
Compassionate and Humane Treatment of Animals
In all program aspects, we will ensure compassion and humane treatment of animals is our primary concern. Following Fear Free® principles in our interactions with animals, adherence to the Five Freedoms model, staying up to date on animal welfare practices, and keeping our capacity for care in mind are aspects we consider core to this value. Additionally, reserving personal judgment and prioritizing facts and compassion is key. This includes the ability to acknowledge when humane euthanasia is the best option.
Animal-Human Bond
We believe the benefits between animals and humans flow both ways, thus the size of your bank account should never determine your ability to experience the love and companionship of an animal. Meeting people where they are and providing resources to strengthen the animal-human bond is critical. These resources include: access to affordable veterinary care, removing adoption barriers, and other tools to help keep animals and humans together.
SPCA News
Ginger is a 5 year old female Australian Shepherd who came to us as an owner surrender. This affectionate girl loves to carry her stuffies around, finding comfort in her plush companions, and she's happiest when she's close to someone who's willing to give her some love and attention.
Ginger can be a little shy while walking on leash. With a little patience and encouragement, we're sure Ginger will gain the confidence she needs to explore the world around her.
Bath time isn't her favorite, but she tolerates it like a champ! Her sweet, submissive personality makes her an easy-going companion. If you're looking for a loyal and loving furry friend who will happily curl up by your side, gender might be the perfect match for you.
Ginger is spayed, up to date on vaccines, on parasite prevention as well as microchipped!!

These dogs are VERY smart and extremely loyal.
The question is how many Aussies can one have? 😂 if I can convince my friend they’d make a good pair
She has the softest fur! 🙂
Stray alert. This guy was found on our campus. Please let us know if he belongs to you.
