Welcome to the Humane Society of Warren County, Virginia
Our vision is to be part of a community where every pet is a wanted pet.
The Humane Society of Warren County is a non-profit animal shelter in Front Royal, Virginia. Established in 1947, we have been a safe haven to the lost, abandoned and abused pets in Warren County for over 70 years. In 2012 we achieved no-kill status, and are proud to maintain it. You can expect an inviting and welcoming atmosphere when you visit the shelter, and compassionate care for our animals.
We have many community minded programs designed to educate and support our neighbors, including a free pet food bank, a low-cost spay/neuter program, and twice yearly rabies clinics at the shelter.
We are a passionate group of employees, volunteers and fosters working hard to achieve a future where every pet is a wanted pet.
Mission Statement: The Humane Society of Warren County is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing compassionate care to abandoned, abused, homeless and neglected animals in our community. We aim to educate pet owners on the importance of vaccinations and population control and to place adoptable pets in loving homes.
MEET PUP! Sometimes the dogs who haven’t had the best start in life are the ones who appreciate a little love the most. Meet 3-year-old Pup, a 30-ish pound Pit Mix who is ready to discover just how wonderful life can be! Pup can be a little shy when he first meets you, but give him a little time and patience and his spunky, curious personality starts to shine. Once he knows he’s safe, Pup absolutely LOVES being loved on! Outside is where Pup really gets to show his curious side. He wants to check out everything around him and take in all the sights and smells. He also walks well on leash, is housetrained, and does pretty well riding in the car. Pup has unfortunately not had the best life before coming to us and was kept outside most of the time. We’d love nothing more than to find him a family who will show him what it means to be safe, loved, included, and part of a family. Dogs: Pup is dog selective and seems to prefer female dogs. A dog test will be required with any current dog in the home.Cats: His previous owner said he was interested in cats but generally indifferent toward them. As always, slow and patient introductions are best.Kids: He has only been around older children, so we recommend a home with older kids who can respect his space while he gets comfortable.Pup is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. This sweet boy may need a little time to come out of his shell, but we think the family willing to give him that time is going to discover one pretty special dog. Could you be the person who shows Pup that his best days are still ahead? Come meet Pup and give him the chance to be your new best friend! ...
Meet Lacy! Lacy is a 3-year-old bundle of joy who’s ready to bounce her way right into your heart! This happy girl is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines — she’s all set to start her next adventure with her forever family.Lacy is super playful and has a ton of energy to share. She absolutely loves people and is happiest when she’s soaking up attention. With that excitement comes some enthusiastic jumping, so she’ll definitely benefit from continued training to help her polish her manners. With consistency and positive reinforcement, she’s going to shine!She can go to a home with kids, as long as the family understands she’s an energetic girl who’s still learning her boundaries. We’ll want any children in the home to come to the meet and greet to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone.We’re unsure how Lacy does with cats. We’re also unsure how she does with other dogs, so a dog test will be required for any resident pups.Lacy would thrive with an active family who can help her burn off energy in fun, positive ways — walks, playtime, training sessions, and lots of love. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate companion who’s ready to learn and grow with you, Lacy might just be your girl! ...
🐓🐖 THE FARM CREW IS LOOKING FOR A NEW ZIP CODE! 🐖🐓We've got a little bit of everything looking for a place to call home, and we promise this crew comes with plenty of personality!First up, meet our feathered trio! We have 2 roosters and 1 hen, one black and one brown (we're still working on figuring out who is who in the chicken world!). We aren't sure of their breeds or ages, but what we do know is that these three have spent their entire lives together and have gotten along wonderfully. They're a package deal and would love to keep their little flock together!And then there's Barb and Linda! These two potbelly mix ladies are under 5 years old and are ready to trade shelter life for a little farm living. They aren't the most socialized ladies just yet, but they aren't aggressive. They'll need someone willing to give them time, patience, and a chance to blossom.Now, we do need to talk about their figures. These girls are carrying a little extra farm-fresh fluff and could stand to lose around 100 pounds! We're thinking fewer snacks and more pasture strolls are in their future!One of the girls is also recovering from a previous injury and is doing much better with medication. Her medication will go home with her adopter so she can continue on the road to recovery.We're looking for a proper farm or home with people who understand that these animals may need some extra time, care, and patience.Whether you're a chicken enthusiast or a pig-loving human, this crew is ready for their next chapter!Let's find these feathered friends and their two big beautiful ladies the homes they've been waiting for! ❤️ ...
