The Hudson Valley Humane Society is a dedicated, no-kill, full-service animal welfare organization committed to promoting the cause of animal welfare through rescue, rehabilitation, and finding loving homes for every animal in our care.
Our journey began in 1891, when a group of trailblazing local women united to protect and shelter injured and abandoned animals. For over 122 years, this community-driven spirit has guided us as we grow, evolve, and continue to serve as a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.
Operating as a private, non-profit 501(c)3, we focus our energy on humane law enforcement, public education, and providing low-cost spay and neuter programs to address pet overpopulation. Our dedicated team of volunteers and staff works tirelessly to provide professional care, always putting the wellbeing of our animals first in every decision we make.
We believe that adopting a pet is a joyful partnership that enriches both your life and the life of a deserving animal. By focusing on responsible ownership and thorough pet counseling, we ensure that every adoption is a successful, lifelong match that brings happiness to your home and stability to our community.
Whether you are ready to adopt, interested in volunteering, or want to support our mission, we invite you to connect with us. Visit us at our Pomona headquarters, explore our available pets online, or stop by our adoption events to meet your new best friend—we look forward to meeting you soon.
