"On behalf of the Humane Association and all the Shelter Pets that have touched our lives, I thank you for your past and future support." - Mari Lee

The Humane Association of Warren County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center has served Warren County and Southwest Ohio for 36 years. We operate the only animal shelter and adoption center in Warren County and as a non-profit, animal welfare organization, depend on tax-deductible donations to support our annual budget. As we celebrate our 36th Anniversary, we are proud of the fact that, during those 36 years, we have provided a safe haven and loving care for tens of thousands of homeless dogs and cats, giving them a second chance for new and happy lives. In addition, we have reunited thousands of lost pets with their beloved owners.

Since our founding in 1973, our ultimate goal has been to find loving, life-long homes for every adoptable pet left in our care. At the same time, we have been successful in dramatically reducing the alarming number of unwanted dogs and cats in Warren County through our progressive, long-established spay/neuter initiatives. 

As the Executive Director and one of the original founders of the Humane Association, I promise you, we are not finished yet. We will continue to find new and creative ways to save the lives of the thousands of homeless pets that come to us every year for loving care and that second chance they deserve.

To do this, I need your help. Remember to donate, adopt, and volunteer. Together we can accomplish the monumental challenge of saving not just a few, but thousands of homeless pets each year.

We're Easy to Find!
Located at the intersection of Cook Road and Route 48 in Lebanon, our central location allows easy access for pet owners, potential adoptive families and drop-off/pick-up of lost and found pets.

Our expansion and renovation project, completed in 2004, doubled the size of the Shelter to a total of 22,000 square feet. The renovation added new super- sized dog kennels and cat cages, a larger, better-equipped spay/neuter operatory and recovery area, and an expanded education meeting room for pet related programs and classroom training.
