LOCAL RESOURCES

Coastal Humane Society is an all-volunteer 501(c)3 charity supported entirely by community donations. Every contribution gives an OBX pet owner facing financial difficulties a hand in keeping their pet family members healthy and safe at home. 

We recommend Outer Banks Clever Canines for that extra special one-on-one dog training need. OBCC is operated and owned by Jackie Gibbs, a Certified Canine Trainer and Registered Veterinarian Technician, who offers behavioral modification training to strengthen the bond between owners and their dogs for the best life possible for everyone. 

Feline Hope is a 501(c)3 non-profit, all-volunteer organization that provides spay, neuter and medical assistance to the Outer Banks community to enable owners to keep their pets. They sponsor monthly low-cost spay & neuter clinics which include FVRCP and rabies vaccinations as well as deworming and flea treatments.
