The Humane Society of Bay County is completely supported by donations from local citizens and businesses. Since we receive no funding from the Government or U.S. Humane Society, you keep our doors open.

Our shelter is operated by a dedicated staff and governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. Your membership dollars, donations, and adoption fees help us to:

Continue to provide food and shelter to homeless animals.

Provide medical care for injured or ill animals. (Foster Care Program)
Find loving homes for thousands of animals every year.
Help spay or neuter pets of Bay County families.
Provide pet vaccinations
Provide educational programs and materials
Foster under-aged and “special needs” puppies and kittens for later adoption.
Provide "Just for Paws" - The Humane Society's quarterly newsletter
Provide many other programs and services to the community.
