My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bess (looks like Lab/Hound Mix) was a stray surrendered to us, so we don't have any background information. Her estimated DOB is 12/16/2021, and she weighed in at 42.5 pound on 9/14/2024. Bess is a happy, playful girl who has been here WAY too long and needs to find her forever home. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but with a bit of patience, she warms up and loves to give kisses and tummy rubs! I mean, she really loves tummy rubs! Bess knows a few things like her name, come, leave-it, sit, and down! She does play well with other dogs; however you should always bring your dog for a test if you decide to adopt. Come meet Bess today and see how sweet and lovey she is!

Our adoption fee is $125 for small breed dogs under 20 pounds and $100 for all other dogs and cats unless otherwise noted in their bio. Every pet available for adoption is current on shots spayed/neutered, and microchipped. You may submit an application online for pre-approval and to set an appointment or you can visit the shelter Wednesday - Sunday from 11am - 5pm. Please note that the kennels close for pet viewing at 4:30pm.

More about this shelter

The mission of the Humane Society of Pulaski County is to rescue, care for and find homes for abandoned, abused, homeless and unwanted animals; to reduce suffering of animals; and to reduce the number of homeless animals through adoption, spay/neuter, and through education.

The Humane Society of Pulaski County provides access to low-cost, healthy, inoculated, sterilized animals to people seeking to adopt animals as pets only. Adopters are screened to see if they can provide the basics of care for the animals, proper housing, and continued veterinary maintenance; and have no history of animal abuse or irresponsible ownership.

The Humane Society is a private no-kill shelter, supported solely by donations, fund-raisers, bequests and grants. We receive no city, county or state funding, nor are we affiliated with any other organization. We have been rescuing animals since 1946, and have been in our present building since 2000.
