The Humane Society of Young County has been helping stray and unwanted animals of Young County, Texas, since 1979. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and rely on donations to keep our doors open. We are dedicated to the welfare of all animals. We are strong advocates of spaying and neutering all pets to reduce the overpopulation problems that we now face. There will never be enough homes available for all the dogs and cats being born today--we cannot adopt or rescue our way out. The only answer to this problem is through spay and neuter. We serve all of Young County are also the reclaim center for Graham Animal Control. We regularly network with rescues to help find homes for our animals.
Please go to our Upcoming Events Page to find information on all our upcoming events and fundraisers. We have links to our ongoing online fundraisers with Grounds and Hounds Coffee Co, as well as links to seasonal online fundraisers as well. Check it out!

***Donations made to R-Pal Through Kibble Wishes (use the link below) will buy dog and cat food and other supplies for our dogs and cats. Your donation will go even farther here since the supplies are discounted for shelters and rescues. Our partnership with RPal allows us to purchase high quality feed at very reduced prices. We try to offer quality foods to our animals because so many come in run down, stressed and need good nutrition to get in good shape for adoption.

In 2019 HSYC took in 1,493 animals.
(858 dogs & 616 cats)
701 were owner surrenders.
Please research and plan before you bring home a new family member. Always spay and neuter to reduce the number of unwanted pets in the community.
The answer? Chihuahuas
Pit Bulls & Bully Breeds are the number one most euthanized dog breed iin shelters today and Chihuahuas are the second. Stop breeding these dogs that are destined to become a statistic. Adopt those already awaiting homes in area shelters!
Pitties and Bully Breeds
Some of our sweetest dogs through the shelter are pits/bully breeds and their mixes, yet they are some of our hardest to place. Many adopters are looking for this type of dog and rescues who work with these breeds stay full and unable to pull many from shelters.
We must do better!
