About this shelter

Wags to Riches Animal Rescue and Sanctuary in Union Gap, WA

Wags to Riches Animal Rescue and Sanctuary is a rescue organization based in Union Gap, Washington, in Yakima County, about 100 miles northwest of Tacoma, WA, and one of 5 animal shelters/rescues serving Yakima County. Guided by the motto "One by One… Until There Are None," the organization rescues and rehomes dogs and cats, relying heavily on foster homes to care for animals until they are adopted or transferred to other no-kill groups. Beyond adoption, Wags to Riches runs community programs including "Spay It Forward," which funded nearly 900 spay/neuter surgeries in 2024 for low-income, disabled, and military families, the Donna Prime Senior Pet Companion Program for pet owners 62 and older, a "We Will, We Promise" safety-net program for pets whose owners can no longer care for them, and kids' education programs teaching respect and responsibility toward animals.
