This is a very nice humaine society. They treat all the animals with love and kindness. I saw fresh hay in the bunny cages, cats had comfortable beds and toys, all dogs had nice beds, toys and blankets. Very clean. The staff knew all the dogs and characters.

Questions & Answers

Are there any small dogs for adoption?

Monica Luce | Aug 20, 2018
Waltzs budgetBumpin | Aug 20, 2018

It varys, ive seen dogs of all sizes it just depends what they have recently taken in. The last time i was there this summer they had a mumma dachshund with 2 juvinile pups. They looked very lovie wanting to go home with someone. One time before that there was a mini poodle he was a sweetheart i carried him around the whole time i was there, i felt bad everytime a dog barked he shudderd but i felt better when they said an older gentleman got him and was coming to get him. I have a rescue pit/blue tick but personally would love to also find a jack russell there little clowns.

Pope Memorial Humane Society | Aug 12, 2022

Hi Jean, thanks for asking. We are asking people (if possible) to hold off on donating linens to PMHS right now. We are currently under a mountain of linens and having a difficult time finding storage for all of them. If you don't mind checking with other local organizations, that would be wonderful. Otherwise, maybe in another month of so we might be able to accept them!
