About Barnesville/Lamar County Humane Society, Inc.

We are the Barnesville/Lamar County Humane Society, Inc. We rescue and foster pets. We also spay/neuter the pets before they go to a forever home. We help elderly and indigent people who already have a cat or dog to have them spayed/neutered. We feel as if the only way we can help save lives in our city and county is to spay/neuter. We have averaged as many as 200 - 300 spays/neuters a year. We offer low-cost spay/neuter. We transport others pets to our vet (40 miles one way) for a spay/neuter clinic since most work and cannot take time to go to the vet. We love animals.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
