Henry County Humane Society (HCHS) is an all volunteer run, no-kill animal shelter located in McDonough,GA.
HCHS was founded in 1979 and functioned as a foster home based rescue group until 2005. In 2005 Henry County Splost Funds were used to build a new animal control shelter and Henry County's Board of Commissioners granted HCHS use of the former animal control building. After a complete renovation, the Henry County Humane Society shelter opened as a happy safe haven for Henry County's homeless pets.
HCHS depends entirely on private donations, fundraisers and adoption fees to carry out its mission. HCHS is a private organization, not a county agency, and receives no government funding nor any funding from national humane organizations. Donations can be made via PayPal from a link on our homepage at www.henryhumane.com or mailed to HCHS, PO Box 941, McDonough, GA 30253. Donations are much appreciated!
HCHS is a non-profit organization and licensed by the Georgia State Department of Agriculture.

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.
