Community

At Pamlico Animal Hospital, helping pets and animals is not only our job - it's our passion.
The veterinarians and staff at our hospital support the health of animals in the Washington community by assisting local organizations and events whenever possible.

The Humane Society of Beaufort Co.

The Humane Society of Beaufort County is a non-profit, all-volunteer organization dedicated to protecting the welfare of animals in our community. The main problem in our area is over-population with a large number of animals still not spayed or neutered.

Freedom for Friends

​Freedom for Friends is a group composed of animal loving people whose mission is to better the lives of chained dogs in Washington, NC and surrounding areas. They do this by building fences, spaying/neutering, vaccinating and providing basic shelter, bedding and other supplies that a dog needs.

Spay and Neuter Programs

SNIP (Spay and Neuter Incentive Program)

The SNIP program is an income based program designed to help those receiving public assistance or low income households in Beaufort County with the surgery cost of spaying and neutering personal pets. One application will cover all pets in your household. Applications are available through the Beaufort County Animal Shelter, Dept. of Social Services and the Health Department. This program is not supported by tax payers’ dollars but you can offer support by purchasing Special interest plates issued by the NC DMV.

  • Get the pet scanned for a microchip.
If the pet is not wearing an ID tag, the best course of action is to either take it to your local animal shelter, veterinarian, or police department to be scanned for a microchip. Although it may be tempting to keep a lost pet and try to find the owner yourself, it is absolutely essential that the animal be scanned for a microchip.
  • Take pets with no ID to an animal shelter.
If the animal has no ID tag or microchip, its best chance of being reunited with its owner is generally at an animal shelter. The shelter is the one obvious place where owners are likely to look for lost pets.
