About Lynchburg Humane Society

For over seventy years, the Lynchburg Humane Society has operated as a private, non-profit organization, caring for lost and homeless pets. Last year, our Lynchburg Center for Pets helped 13,034 pets and 13,233 people. We are a 501(c)(3), as well as a no-kill Humane Society, where we firmly believe that no healthy or treatable pet should be euthanized. By operating the public shelter for the City of Lynchburg, we accept lost or unwanted pets surrendered to us, as well as provide shelter and care for pets that have been victims of neglect, abandonment, or abuse brought in by the city’s animal control officers. We help pets who are at risk for euthanasia at other shelters by transferring them into our care. We accept those that are easily adoptable as pets, as well as those that require special care due to experiences of abuse or neglect. In addition to our Center for Pets, we also operate a regional spay/neuter clinic, which performs approximately 8,000 spay/neuter surgeries annually. It is the help of the community that makes our life-saving programs possible.
