Humane Society of Charles County, Inc.

Description

The Humane Society of Charles County had only 25 members and less than $100 when it began in 1978. Our one objective was to rescue dogs and cats hit by cars. Through the years we have grown to over 1700 families strong. Our services have greatly expanded and we are now able to shelter and rehabilitate and adopt rescued animals in our modern facility on Industrial Park Drive in St. Charles. In 1989, we expanded our dog run area from 10 to 24 runs, and in 1995, we added a larger cat area, a quarantine room with additional dog runs and cat cages, and a multi-purpose/humane education room. In March 1998, we began spaying and neutering all animals before adoption in our own spay/neuter clinic. In 2003, we began offering low cost spay/neutering services to other animal rescue groups.
