Action For Animals Humane Society

Action For Animals Humane Society was founded in 1983 to shelter and provide care for abused, abandoned and stray dogs and cats of Westmoreland County. We adopt animals into responsible homes and vigorously promote the spaying and neutering of all pets to eliminate the cruelty of animal overpopulation. We are a non-profit, non-government funded, no-kill shelter that keeps animals free from the threat of unwarranted euthanasia.

Additional adoption info

Adoption/Visiting Hours: Tuesday-Saturday from Noon-4pm. You're welcome to come to the shelter during adoption hours to visit with our animals and fill out an adoption application. You MUST have a pre-approved application before visiting with a puppy 4 months and under.

Please bring vet records of your current pets and proof of home ownership when you come to the shelter. If you’re a renter, we will need to contact your landlord. You can take your new best friend home the same day if your adoption application is approved and all required information can be confirmed.

If you have dogs at home, we require a meet and greet with the shelter dog you are interested in. However, for the safety of your pet and the shelter animals, please be sure to bring all of your pet’s vaccination records with you to the meet and greet.
