We can't stress enough the importance of.adopting.... it truly saves lives AND there is no greater reward (or better karma) than giving a happy ending to an animal in need. This 93 lbs. hunk of handsome was adopted from Montgomery County Animal Care and Control & boy does he have a proud new daddy. We gave him one heck of a cool sendoff complete with a photo shoot & tunes.

We've had a little fun celebrating Shark Week this week... shark lifejackets in our Re-Tail Store, a neuter patient with his inflatable shark e-collar, and shark-themed cupcakes (complete with jelly filling... eew!) for our staff! Stay safe out there! 🐶🦈🐱
We learned there is a specific way to give & accept a coin as shown here by Dr. Waibel & Director Amy.
DONATION CHALLENGE for COTTON BALLS, LIQUID LAUNDRY DETERGENT, and DRY CAT/DOG FOOD are currently at the top of our wish list. Purchasing simple items like this helps offset other supply expenses, which run upwards of $8,000 per month to keep our spay-neuter clinic running. Every single donation matters big to us, and we soooo appreciate your ongoing support!!
Donations can be dropped off anytime Monday-Saturday 9am-2pm. Our drop off & mailing address is 940 Tennessee Ave. (behind Arby's on Riverside Dr.).
Just a little pre-surgery "ball"room dancing (no pun intended) in the clinic this morning to celebrate Ash's adoption from Montgomery County Animal Care and Control! Tennessee state law requires all animals adopted from shelters and rescues be fixed prior to adoption, which helps SO much with our fight against overpopulation, suffering and euthanasia. Ash's new family gets to pick him up from our clinic this afternoon, and I bet they had no idea they were getting such a talent!❤️#AdoptDontShop
If your pet is on the nice list (or even is he/she isn't😉), you have three more opportunities to shop our Re-Tail Store before Xmas: Tuesday (tomorrow), Thursday, and Saturday between 10AM and 2PM!
We currently have LOTS of toys, dog treats, and pet beds in stock, plus tons of other new & gently used pet supplies available at a fraction of typical retail pricing. You get grrrrreat deals, and 100% of your purchase benefits Humane Society programs & services!❤️
Credit/debit cards ($5 minimum) and cash accepted!
The wind turned our Xmas blowups into an action-packed show this morning! Hold on, Santa!! #SaveXmasFixYourDog
We had the fever today… PUPPY FEVER! These cuties were at our clinic being fixed and are now available for adoption through Mikaela's Mutt Motel! ADOPT, DON'T SHOP for the holidays! If you can't adopt, consider fostering through one of Clarksville's MANY rescues that depend 100% on foster home networks to save animals in need. Message us if interested & we’ll send you a list of foster-based groups!
Our Spay-Neuter Clinic regularly performs pediatric spays and neuters on dogs and cats that meet our minimum 2 months AND 2 pounds rule, which is supported by the AVMA and major animal welfare organizations across the country.
Animals fixed between 2 months - 6 months old typically endure shorter surgery times, shorter anesthetic recovery, less incidence of postoperative complications, and quicker healing time.
Fixing early also often eliminates most negative behaviors that cause many pet owners to give up on their pets, including marking, jumping/digging out of fences, running off, spraying, fighting with other pets in the home, increased aggression with people, unruliness, going into heat, and dealing with multiple litters.
FOR PRICING OR TO BOOK A SPAY-NEUTER APPOINTMENT, visit us online at http://clarksvillehumanesociety.org/spayneuter-clinic. We book several months out for all dogs & female cats, so don’t wait until your pet is “old enough,” because in most cases they will be plenty old enough by the time your appointment date arrives. If you need something sooner, choose whatever date the computer gives you & indicate your urgency in the notes. AND, check your email often as mass emails are sent to offer sooner opportunities as new surgery dates are added.

Last night’s Cats MEOW TNR trapping efforts… sometimes our wildlife friends have different plans.
Neuter patients Archer & Zeus harmonized on Xmas carols this morning while waiting for surgery. #SpayNeuterRepeat
It takes a lot of towels and blankets to keep our patients warm, cozy & clean on any given surgery day. Today’s laundry towered over most of our staff. We almost lost Brittany!☺️
Skunk (and his littermates) are available for adoption through Puurrrfect Paws Rescue & Cafe!
Featuring TikTok stars: JULIANNA (just adopted from Montgomery County Animal Care and Control!) and YADDLE (available for adoption through Puurrrfect Paws Rescue & Cafe! We shamelessly exploited Yaddle’s drug-induced expression for the purpose of participating in this pawpular TikTok trend, but she’s actually very sweet!) #SpayNeuterAdoptRepeat
