The Humane Society of Young County is a non-profit organization dedicated to the welfare of all animals. We are strong advocates of "spay and neuter all pets" to reduce the overpopulation problems that we now face. Our shelter takes in an average of 170 pets per month and is forced to euthanize many wonderful pets due to lack of quality homes and lack of shelter space.

There will never be enough homes available for all the dogs and cats being born today. The only answer to this problem is the spaying and neutering of all pets. We depend on donations to fund our shelter operations and animal welfare programs.

We serve all of Young County and several surrounding counties. We are also the reclaim center for Graham Animal Control. We are currently networking with several other shelters to help find homes for more animals. We also work with breed rescue organizations when possible.
