The Humane Society of Greene County, an independent, non-profit organization, is staffed solely by volunteers. All our programs are specifically designed with the goal of alleviating animal abuse and suffering throughout Greene County. We do not run a physical shelter.

Our Mission

To prevent animal suffering from overpopulation by way of a spay/neuter subsidy program. To eliminate neglect and abusive treatment of livestock by enforcing the statutes according to the Ohio Revised Code and additionally to promote education in the humane care and maintenance of all animals.

Our History

The Humane Society of Greene County has been in existence since 1961. Throughout the years it has helped animals and people in a variety of ways. Currently the Society works to prevent animal suffering through our spay/neuter subsidy program by controlling the overpopulation of dogs and cats. We also prevent livestock abuse and neglect by the enforcement of the laws contained in the Ohio Revised Code. Education is available through individual counseling or group events and can cover any aspect of humane treatment to all animals.

In 2012 we helped over 1496 animals with their surgery costs and we hope to surpass that number for 2013! This included helping 428 dogs, 495 cats and 573 cats in our s/n clinics. Thanks to everyone for their support in our programs!
