Humane Society of Valdosta/Lowndes County
Our Mission
The Humane Society of Valdosta/Lowndes County is dedicated to promoting responsible pet ownership by teaching compassion, respect, and the caring treatment of all animals. Our motto, We speak for those who cannot speak for themselves, guides our daily work to improve the lives of animals through rescue, education, and advocacy.
Our History and Commitment
Established in 1989 as a local non-profit animal welfare organization, we have served as a voice for animals in our community for over three decades. We operate as a private organization, relying on generous donations and community support to fulfill our goal of achieving No Kill status for our region. Since 2013, we have positively impacted thousands of animals through our dedicated rescue and outreach programs.
How We Help
We are a private, non-profit organization that works tirelessly to provide homes for pets in need, often pulling animals directly from the local shelter. Our approach emphasizes education, outreach, and the elimination of pet overpopulation through spay and neuter initiatives. We strive to provide affordable resources that benefit both the animals and their forever families as they transition into new lives.
The Adoption Connection
When you choose to adopt from the Humane Society of Valdosta, you are gaining a partner in animal care and helping us save more lives. Each animal we place is fully vetted, microchipped, and altered, ensuring they are healthy and ready for their next chapter. We use a thoughtful, committee-based adoption process to ensure every match is a success, as we carefully consider the personality and needs of both the pet and the adopter.
