The Humane Society of Missouri Auxiliary is formed by a group of dedicated women with the hope of raising funds to subsidize different needs of the Humane Society of Missouri. Their first exciting endeavor is to organize a pet supply shop, “Adopt n’ Shop,” located within the Macklind Avenue headquarters. It is the first shop of its kind in the country within a humane society, and is so successful that another shop is opened at the Maryland Heights branch. The Branch is also soon equipped with a clinic and laboratory thanks to the Auxiliary, which provides funds for the additions.
