Bigbee Humane Society

Bigbee Humane Society 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]

Last night, Demopolis Animal Control received a call from a concerned citizen whose children had heard an animal crying in pain under their home. DAC responded, and with help from a Demopolis police officer, they carefully rescued a small, injured dog; no more than 20 pounds.

She had significant wounds on both sides of her body, and sadly, they weren’t fresh; meaning she had been suffering for quite some time. While the exact cause of her injuries is still unknown, it was clear she needed immediate help.

We were asked to step in, and thanks to the compassionate vets at Demopolis Animal Clinic, who opened their doors after 10pm, she received emergency care and pain management. We feared she wouldn’t survive the drive to an emergency vet, and we’re so grateful the clinic was able to help on such short notice.

Despite everything she had endured, this little girl was incredibly sweet and seemed grateful for every bit of comfort offered to her. Sadly, she passed away this morning.

This isn’t the outcome any of us had hoped for. We so badly wanted to give her the second chance she deserved. But there’s some peace in knowing she didn’t die alone, scared, and in pain under a dark, damp house.

Thank you to everyone who played a role in trying to save her. She mattered.

Being an Animal Control Officer is one of the most thankless jobs out there.
Even though everything you do is rooted in protecting both animals and the community, the world often just sees you as “the dog catcher.” They don’t see the sleepless nights, the heartbreak, or the hard decisions. They just see someone taking loose dogs off the street, picking up strays, or enforcing laws that others choose to ignore, then blame you for the outcome.

But we see you.

We see the compassion, the strength, and the resilience it takes to walk into chaos and bring order. We see the heart that gets beaten and broken day after day, yet still shows up to do the work. The work that no one wants to do but that must be done, for the safety of the animals, and the people around them.

This week is National Animal Control Officer Appreciation Week, and we want to say a heartfelt thank you.
Thank you to every animal control officer out there, whether you’re in a truck, in a kennel, or out in the field, or if you do all of the above. You are essential. You are appreciated. And your work matters more than you know.

We are thankful for Valarie & all of her hard work. If you see her this week, thank her!

Our Story

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]
