Who We Are

The Humane League of Lancaster County is an inde­pendent, non-profit charity that is recog­nized as the area's leader in animal welfare. Our dedi­cated staff and volun­teers provide compassion and care to thou­sands of pets each year through a variety of services.  Through low-cost spay/neuter clinics we are proac­tively addressing the problem of pet over­pop­u­lation in order to create a no-kill community. 

Our unique foster care program allows to us save even more lives while our part­ner­ships with other rescues and shelters help us place an ever increasing number of animals in permanent and loving homes.  Outreach adoption sites and activ­ities also take our animals into the community where they belong.  We value our volun­teers, members, and supporters as important contrib­utors to the work that we do.  Through working together, we can achieve our vision of creating a humane community where all animals are protected and wanted.

Adoption

Our goal is to match companion animals with families who are willing and able to provide them with a lifetime commitment of care and love. We hope that our adoption process involves a back and forth dialogue between our staff and yourself as a potential adopter, so that we can work together in your search for finding your new best friend!
