Best Friends Animal Society, founded in 1986, is an American nonprofit 501c3 organization that is one of America’s best known animal welfare rescue groups. Best Friends works with shelters, other rescue groups and members nationwide to promote pet adoption, spay-and-neuter services, and humane education programs around the country. A key component of Best Friends’ work is operating Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, the nation’s largest no-kill safe haven for displaced, homeless or unwanted domestic animals, located in Southwestern Utah near the town of Kanab. The society also publishes Best Friends magazine, which has more than 250,000 subscribers. The hour-long series "DogTown," filmed at the sanctuary, is the story of Best Friends' ongoing work with dogs. The program debuted on the National Geographic Channel Jan. 4, 2008. See Less
