The mission of Bigbee Humane Society is to make possible a better world for all animals by providing shelter, educating the community about humane care.
We are a small group of volunteers dedicated to giving rescue dogs a second chance. We operate solely on donations. We are not funded by any city or county organization. We all work full time jobs, have family etc, but we think every dog deserves a chance so we are the voice for the voiceless. We do operate as a no-kill shelter. We do not euthanize to make space for another dog, which sometimes pr
events us from helping every dog in need. We provide a safe place for every dog we take in. Our shelter consist of all outdoor kennels. That is why we work so hard to find a better placement for each dog we take in. Our priority is pulling dogs from our local kill shelters and city pounds. We are always in need of new volunteers. Dogs always need to be walked, bathed, and vetted. Transporters are always needed. If interested in volunteering please email us at [email protected]

🇺🇸🐾 Remembering the Four-Legged Heroes of 9/11 🐾🇺🇸
On this day, we not only honor the lives lost and the brave first responders who rushed toward danger, but also the incredible search & rescue dogs who worked tirelessly at Ground Zero.
These loyal companions climbed through rubble, comforted grieving families, and gave hope in the darkest hours. Their paws walked where few could, and their hearts gave strength when it was needed most.
We will never forget their service, their sacrifice, and the unconditional love they brought during one of America’s hardest days. 💙❤️

Meet Scrappy! 🐾
Scrappy’s journey hasn’t been easy. He was brought to Demopolis Animal Control from Linden after his owners were advised by Linden city officials Demopolis AC could take him. Once again, DAC had to explain that we only serve the city of Demopolis, but the threats started, the usual “I’ll just dump him if you don’t take him” or “I’ll leave him in the parking lot.”
Scrappy’s story broke our hearts. He had been hit by a car months ago and never received vet care. He needed FHO surgery, and without help, his fate was sealed. Even though we had no space, we said yes, because Scrappy deserved a chance.
Thanks to an incredible anonymous donor, his surgery was fully covered. That was just 8 weeks ago. Today, Scrappy is healed, happy, and cleared for adoption! 💙
🐶 About Scrappy:
• 1 year old
• 48 lbs
• Neutered
• Heartworm negative
• Friendly, playful, and loves attention!
Scrappy is now ready to find his forever home where he will be loved and cherished the way he should have been all along.

Bigbee Humane Society is not a county run shelter. We are a small group of volunteers dedicated to giving stray/homeless dogs a second chance. We believe every dog deserves a chance. We are the voice for the voiceless. We do operate as a no-kill shelter. Therefore, we do not euthanize to make space for another dog. However, that does sometimes prevents us from helping every dog in need. We can only do so much. Our group operates solely on donations and revenue from our thrift store.
We try to provide a safe and healthy environment for every dog we take in. However, our shelter is an outdoor facility. That is why we work so hard to find a better placement for each dog we take in. We have each dog vaccinated, altered, dewormed, and heartworm treated if needed. Our main focus is abandoned/stray dogs and pulling dogs from our local city pounds.
We are always in need of new volunteers. Dogs always need to be walked, bathed, and vetted. Transporters are always needed as well. If interested in volunteering please email us at [email protected]
