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 BROWN BEAR! This handsome 2-year-old Pit Mix is ready to find his forever family—and he’s bringing ALL the fun and energy with him! Brown Bear is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. He’s a sweet, playful guy who LOVES toys and going walkies! He also rides well in the car, so he’d make a great adventure buddy.Dog friendly! A dog test will be required. We’re unsure about cats, so slow, patient introductions will be important. We think Brown Bear could do well with kids, but he is VERY high energy and may accidentally knock little ones over while he’s excited. Older kids may be a better fit.Brown Bear will benefit from some training to help him learn leash manners, boundaries, and general good-boy manners. He’s smart and sweet, and with the right family willing to give him structure, exercise, and guidance, we think he’ll be an amazing companion. An active family would be ideal for Brown Bear—someone who will help him burn off that energy appropriately through walks, playtime, adventures, and training.One important note: Brown Bear recently completed his heartworm treatment. He will need to be retested in 6 months and remain on heartworm prevention for the rest of his life.If you’re looking for a goofy, energetic, toy-loving adventure buddy with a whole lot of love to give, Brown Bear might be your guy! Come meet Brown Bear and see if he’s the perfect addition to your family! ...
