Welcome to the Humane Society of Warren County, Virginia

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.

🐾 Meet Athena! 🐾Athena is a beautiful 3-year-old Pit Bull mix looking for an active family to call her own! She is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and weighs around 60 pounds.This sweet girl has a big personality and an even bigger heart! Athena absolutely loves her people and is happiest when she's spending time with them. She has tons of energy and would thrive with an active family that can keep up with her adventures.Her favorite things? Toys, treats, and running around the play yard to burn off all that puppy-like energy! Even though she's 3 years old, Athena still acts like a puppy. She can get a little nippy when she's excited and doesn't always realize how big she is, so we feel a home with older children or teenagers would be the best fit.Athena will need to be the only animal in the home so she can soak up all the love and attention. She is incredibly smart and very food motivated, which means training should be a fun and rewarding experience for both her and her new family. She would greatly benefit from continued training to help her learn good manners, boundaries, and appropriate ways to channel all of her energy.If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion who will keep you smiling and always be ready for the next adventure, Athena just might be your perfect match.❤️ Could Athena be the missing piece of your family?

She absolutely LOVES toys and nothing makes her happier than running around the play yard, chasing her favorite toy, and enjoying every minute of freedom.

Being confined to a kennel without the chance to run and play as much as she'd like has left her stressed, and she's hoping someone will give her the active lifestyle she's been dreaming of.Because of her energy level, Carmella would thrive with an active family that can keep both her mind and body busy. She would also benefit from continued training to help her learn good manners, boundaries, and improve her leash skills. She's a smart girl who just needs someone willing to invest the time to help her shine.Carmella is looking for a home where she can be the only pet so she can soak up all the love and attention. She would do best with older children who can match her enthusiasm while respecting her space.If you're ready for an adventurous, toy-loving companion who will keep you smiling, Carmella is waiting to meet you.
