Dawson County Humane Society

Animal shelter in Dawsonville, GA

We are a group of dedicated volunteers that worked for 6 years to raise enough money to build an animal shelter in a County in Georgia that did not have one. We are a 501c3 Non-profit organization. We operate primarily on donations and gifts.
We believe EVERY animal deserves a home. We do everything possible to make certain they have a second chance at a happy life with a family that will love and care for them.
The greatest reward for us is a happy ending, a smiling cat or dog that has found love and companionship and brought a ray of sunshine into a home.
