Southern Souls Animal League
Our Mission
Southern Souls Animal League is dedicated to serving Barbour County, Alabama, and the surrounding areas by providing life-saving care to animals in need. We operate with a primary focus on reducing euthanasia rates through active intake, vetting, and compassionate adoption services.
Our History and Purpose
Since our founding in 2013, we have worked tirelessly to support our community and the animals that call it home. We proudly assist areas that lack formal animal control, ensuring there is always a safe place for unwanted pets to go while they wait for their forever families.
How We Make a Difference
Our approach goes beyond the shelter walls. We provide essential outreach services, including low-cost vaccine clinics and our SNUG and Open Paws initiatives, which focus on spay and neuter access to reduce overpopulation. Additionally, our pet food pantry and hay assistance programs help families overcome financial hardships, ensuring pets stay exactly where they belong: at home with the people who love them.
Adopting With Us
When you choose to adopt from Southern Souls, you aren't just giving a dog or cat a new beginning—you are also reducing the demand for industrial-scale breeding operations. Every animal in our care receives comprehensive medical treatment, spay or neuter services, and individualized attention to ensure they are ready to thrive in your home. We believe that when you adopt, you are making room for the next life-saving rescue, creating a beautiful cycle of compassion.
Get Involved
We invite you to be part of our mission by meeting the sweet, unique personalities currently in our care. Please visit our website to browse our available pets, explore our upcoming community events, or submit an adoption application today. Whether you choose to adopt, volunteer, or support our programs, your kindness makes our life-saving work possible.
