Rehoming or surrendering your pet is never easy. Rehoming your pet can take weeks to months. Be patient and allow yourself the time needed to find the best home for your furry friend. Ensure your pet is up-to-date on vaccinations. This not only keeps your pet healthy but also reassures potential adopters.
White River Humane Society would love to be in a position to say yes to everyone to help them with the hardships they may be facing. However, we have to balance our capacity and resources available at all times. Just because you might see a kennel open, doesn't mean that we have capacity as animals may be out at the veterinarian office,
White River Humane Society would love to be in a position to say yes to everyone to help them with the hardships they may be facing. However, we have to balance our capacity and resources available at all times. Just because you might see a kennel open, doesn't mean that we have capacity as animals may be out at the veterinarian office, or specific kennels may be on standby for an incoming police hold, animal cruelty investigation, animal at large, etc.
Remember to explore all options before deciding to surrender your pet. Even the nicest animal shelters are a stressful environment for pets. There's nothing like having a home and if you can rehome your pet on your own, it will reduce stress for the animal. Shelters across the nation are full and pets receive more attention in a home, t
Remember to explore all options before deciding to surrender your pet. Even the nicest animal shelters are a stressful environment for pets. There's nothing like having a home and if you can rehome your pet on your own, it will reduce stress for the animal. Shelters across the nation are full and pets receive more attention in a home, than they ever would in a shelter. Many shelters simply do not have the room to take in additional animals, so this is a last resort and could possibly be a circumstance where you'll have to call multiple shelters to see if anyone has openings.
We rely on donations to keep our operation running in support of the lost, abandoned, neglected and homeless dogs & cats of Lawrence County, Indiana.
