Our Mission

Building loving relationships between people and pets.

Our Vision

To build a community in which all animals are valued and family life is enhanced through relationships with pets.

What We Do

  • We find homes for homeless pets.
  • We reunite lost pets with their families.
  • We reduce pet overpopulation through proactive spay/neuter programs.
  • We work to eliminate animal abuse and neglect through cruelty investigations and community action.
  • We serve as a resource for pet owners, to enhance the human-animal bond.
  • We collaborate with community organizations and companies to make our programs more effective.
  • We strive to be the area's most proactive and effective animal-care agency.
The Humane Society of Greater Dayton is a not-for-profit organization supported entirely by the generous contributions of the community. We have served Montgomery County for more than 100 years and are the oldest, most established animal-wellness center in the area.
