Asheville Humane Society

Description

Asheville Humane Society takes in nearly 7,000 animals every year, and works diligently to adopt out at many as possible into permanent and loving homes. Last year we placed more than 1700 animals into such homes. All had been spayed or neutered, had all their first shots, received free ID tags and a free first visit to any local veterinarian. The care and adoption of homeless, unwanted animals is our most important mission, and we carefully match people with animals by providing screening and counseling services to assure successful adoptions.
