We had a hauntingly good time at our Spooky Snips TNR event this past Sunday! Our dedicated vet staff from HSGD and several other organizations came together to volunteer their time, and the results are purr-fect!

We were able to spay and neuter a staggering 96 community cats! This will have a fang-tastic impact on controlling the feral cat population in our area. THANK YOU to everyone who volunteered their time and expertise to make this event possible!

Please consider signing up as a temporary emergency foster. We don't know yet how many fosters we will need, but to have a list of people ready to go is critical in us helping as many animals as we can! Sign up now at www.hsdayton.org/foster.

Hurricane Helene has wreaked havoc on many parts of our country this past weekend. Between lives lost, extreme flooding and destruction to properties, it has been a tragic disaster for many areas. Here at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton, we want to do our part to help the people and pets in need during this emergency situation and are currently working with national groups to lend our support and see if we can help transport animals out of these extremely dangerous areas.

However, to do this we need your help. Would you be willing to be a temporary foster for one of these animals? We can only help as many as we have foster homes for as our shelters are currently full. If you are willing to open your hearts and homes to help take in an animals, please fill out our foster application now at www.hsdayton.org/foster and we will add you to our list of temporary fosters. Time is of the essence and these situations are becoming more severe as time goes on. The more we have sign up as fosters, the more animals we can help. Please consider being an emergency foster today and help us support our fellow animal shelters who need us all more than ever right now.

He's always been a gem in our eyes here at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton, but we were so proud to see our President & CEO Brian Weltge honored as a Community Gem this weekend in the Dayton Daily News.

Under Brian's leadership our facility has grown to be so much more than an adoption center. We proudly became a no-kill facility and now have a save rate averaging 99 percent. We expanded our services to include a high-volume spay and neuter clinic that currently spays or neuters more than 8,000 animals each year, with hopes of growing to more than 20,000 animals helped annually in the future. We have built a low-cost, full-service animal hospital that provides resources to those pet owners who may not have the capability of receiving veterinary care for their animals otherwise. Those are just a few of the many things our facility has done thanks to Brian, but the list could go on and on and on.

We are so beyond proud of Brian and the leadership he provides to our organization. Our entire team is excited to stand with him as we continue to grow, expand and adapt to best fit the needs of the people and pets in our community.

Help us give a big congrats to Brian, our very own Community Gem!

A pet that is adopted at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton brings joy to its new family’s life.
