My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

FANG IS LOOKING FOR HIS NEW FOREVER HOME!

FANG is a 9-year-old husky mix who weighs around 56 pounds. He came in as a stray scared and very alone and was in a lot of pain from his teeth being so bad. He is ready to put his old life behind him and move on. He is a very loving boy who just needs a place to call home. FANG doses have to be the only animal in the home. Don't let his age fool you. He loves playing outside. Fang also knows how to sit; give paw this boy is so smart.

FANG is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his core vaccinations including DAPPV, BORDETELLA, and RABIES. If you're interested in FANG, please being your other canines for a meet and greet or call the shelter for more information at 740-314-5583.

More about this shelter

We are the Jefferson County Humane Society and , except for our humane officers (who are paid very nominally), we are all volunteers! Our members were instrumental in getting a local levy passed to build a new and larger shelter and the doors opened in 2011. We are currently participating in Iams Home for the Holidays Program and the Purina Pets for People grant program. We are actively pursuing other grants and recently have been asked by the county to partner with them in the operation of the new shelter. Since we are a humane society, our main focus is on getting animals spayed and neutered so there are no more homeless pets. To that end, we bring in a mobile animal surgical clinic who performs spays and neuters at a reduced rate. We are always looking for volunteers to help us in our efforts and, of course, for financial contributions (we are a non-profit, 501 (c)3) and pet adopters! Other items such as food, treats, pet carriers, cages, leashes, collars, food bowls, etc. are also ALWAYS welcomed and appreciated. Please contact us if you have an item to be donated or would like to volunteer with us to try to save some of these homeless, but very loveable, dogs!
