Golden Belt Humane Society
Our Mission
At Golden Belt Humane Society, our mission is to provide a safe, caring environment for all the animals that come through our doors. We are dedicated to the welfare of animals and strive to find loving forever homes for each and every pet in our care.
Who We Are
We are a non-profit organization serving as a vital resource for the city of Great Bend and the surrounding areas of Barton County. Our team consists of passionate animal lovers who work tirelessly to provide temporary housing and comprehensive medical care to pets in need of a fresh start.
How We Care
Our shelter acts as a haven where animals receive the love, attention, and medical treatment they deserve. We also believe in the power of community, which is why we actively utilize a foster network to provide a home-like environment for animals who need extra socialization, specialized medical care, or a break from shelter life.
Your Perfect Match
Adopting a pet is a joyful partnership, and our team is committed to making the process easy and thoughtful. By completing an application and meeting with our adoption counselors, we help ensure a successful transition that considers your household, lifestyle, and the individual needs of your new companion.
Start Your Journey Today
Whether you are looking to adopt, volunteer, or become a foster parent, there are many ways to make a lasting difference in the lives of our furry friends. We invite you to browse our available animals online, apply to join our volunteer family, or visit us at our Great Bend facility to meet your new best friend.
