Humane Society of Lebanon County

Our Mission

The Humane Society of Lebanon County is dedicated to the prevention of cruelty to animals and to fostering a community that truly understands and values the ways pets enrich our daily lives. We are committed to providing exceptional, compassionate care for every animal that comes through our doors.

A Legacy of Compassion

Since our charter in 1939, our organization has grown from humble beginnings into the only animal shelter serving Lebanon County. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we rely entirely on the generosity of local residents and businesses, as we receive no funding from state or national welfare organizations.

How We Care for Our Guests

Our Myerstown facility provides a safe harbor for stray and surrendered animals, featuring modern kennels, a dedicated cattery, and a specialized medical building for spay/neuter services. Our devoted staff and volunteers offer vital socialization and behavioral enrichment to ensure our residents thrive while they wait for their forever homes. For those who need a little extra TLC, our foster program provides a loving alternative environment.

Finding Your Perfect Match

We believe adoption is a joyful partnership, which is why we take a thoughtful, individualized approach to matching every animal with the right human companion. Our adoption process prioritizes the safety and long-term success of our pets, ensuring they are placed in homes where they will be loved and flourish. We are proud to facilitate these life-changing connections through professional, caring guidance.
