Montgomery County SPCA

Our Mission

The Montgomery County SPCA is dedicated to providing protection, care, and shelter to animals in need while facilitating their placement into loving, appropriate forever homes. We strive to promote public awareness about proper pet care and the vital benefits of spaying and neutering.

A Legacy of Compassion

Founded in 1904, we have maintained a long-standing tradition of protecting homeless, neglected, abandoned, and abused animals in Montgomery County, New York. For over a century, our commitment has been to provide a safe haven for animals in need and to foster a community that values the well-being of all companion animals.

Our Care Model

As an independent, non-profit organization, we provide high-quality care for hundreds of animals each year within our shelter facilities and through our dedicated foster network. We take great pride in our 97.82% live release rate and our promise that we do not euthanize animals for space; our rescues stay with us as long as it takes to find their perfect match.

Finding Your Forever Friend

We believe that adoption is a joyful partnership, and our thorough process ensures that every pet is placed in a responsible, long-term home. By checking veterinary histories and conducting home visits, we strive to ensure that pets who have been displaced once never have to experience that heartbreak again.

Join Our Family

Are you ready to find your new best friend or get involved with our mission? We invite you to explore our available pets, visit our shelter in Amsterdam, or discover how you can support our work through volunteering or donations. Together, we can create a brighter, kinder future for every animal in our community.
