The Bahamas Humane Society (BHS) is a non-profit animal welfare organisation headquartered in Chippingham, New Providence. In addition to operating as an animal shelter and vet, it seeks to promote humane treatment of animals and prevent animal cruelty through education. It is Nassau's oldest charity. Originally called the Dumb Friends League, the organisation was founded in 1924 and was based on Parliament Street. In its early years, the group primarily focused on the care and protection of the horses, donkeys, and mules that were used to pull carriages at the time. There were also efforts to feed stray dogs. In 1937, the Parliament Street premises were destroyed. The shelter moved to its current site in Chippingham in 1947, by which point it had rebranded to the Bahamas Humane Society. The BHS employed the country's first veterinarian. Through a spray neuter programme, the BHS was able to become a no-kill shelter. More information...
