Rescue FAQs

Located in beautiful Highland County Virginia, the Highland County Humane Society is dedicated to promoting the health, safety, welfare, compassionate care, and protection of animals through a cooperative engagement with Highland County, its citizens, and other like-minded animal welfare groups. We are a group of dedicated volunteers and foster homes taking unwanted animals from the public as well as the Highland County Pound and neighboring animal shelters. Our group consists of animal lovers and each of us believes that every animal deserves a loving home. The HCHS is completely funded through donations, private and corporate sponsors, grants, and fundraising events. Your tax-deductible donation provides day-to-day care, veterinary services, food, and shelter for the animals under our protection. We are a 501c3 organization formed in 2012 in response to a need in our county. We welcome any help and assistance you may be able to offer and we’d like to thank everyone who has been so supportive and helpful in our creation.
HCHS is located in beautiful Highland County, Virginia but we have no boundaries. Our organization takes in animals from the public, animal control and neighboring pounds and shelters. We have no physical facility, all animals are in foster homes and can be visited at a time that suits your schedule. One of our terrific volunteers may be able to meet you midway with the pet.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process involves an application, application review, and adoption fee. You are welcome to visit or ask questions about any of our animals for adoption. Animals are in foster homes and can be met there or at a central location. We encourage all members of your family to meet the potential new addition. All animals receive preventative vaccinations, dewormer and flea/tick medication. We also participate in a pre-adoption spay/neuter program which decreases possible litters as well as expedites the adoption policy for the new family!
