News
Virginia State Law requires that all animals adopted from a Humane Society must be spayed/neutered. It is our policy that no adoptions are made outside of Amherst County, Nelson County, the City of Lynchburg or counties not adjacent to Amherst unless the animal is at least six months old and can be neutered before it leaves the area. Adjacent counties include: Appomattox, Bedford, Campbell and Rockbridge.
We have plenty of kittens and cats and puppies and dogs looking for loving homes. Remember, any time is a good time for a new companion! If you don't see what you're looking for today, keep checking. The perfect pooch or kitty may be just around the corner! :) Puppies under 3 months of age can not be adopted to families with children under the age of 6
Have a great day and remember...Until there are none, adopt one!
