Bedford Humane Society

The Bedford Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1994 and dedicated to eliminating the overpopulation of cats and dogs in Bedford County, VA through education, spay/neuter programs, and companion animal adoptions. We are NOT the tax-funded Bedford County shelter on Falling Creek Road, although we do try to help the animals there whenever possible. Our adoptable pets live in volunteer foster homes where they receive the care and attention they deserve while awaiting a permanent home. Our various programs for Bedford County and City of Bedford residents include:: •A low cost spay/neuter program for area pets •The construction of an adoption animal center, Vernon D Lybolt Adoption Center, at 829 Ole Turnpike Road in Bedford. •Find homes for abandoned and homeless animals through our adoption program. •Help pet owners with unexpected expenses involving their pets, through our Emergency Fund program. •Provide humane traps and spay/neuter subsidies for feral cats through our Forgotten Felines program. •Humane Education program for area Scout troops and schools.
