Our 4th Annual Pawstock Event is just around the coorner. All of the proceeds from this fall basket raffle benefit the animals at the Lawrence County Humane Society's general fund.

When: Saturday October 5, 2024, from noon to 4pm

Where: Cascade Park Dance Hall

There will be:

A basket raffle
bake sale
50/50 raffle
carnival food
a live DJ
and more

Due to there being structural damage to the carousel building, we have to use the dance hall for this year's event. So, sadly that means all pets will have to stay at home due to state and park regulations. We hope to have the outdoor venue for next year as we love seeing all of the dogs.

This is a cash only event. All games of chance tickets must be paid for in cash due to PA Games of Chance Laws.

We hope to see you all there!

We are in need of baskets for our raffle. If you would like to donate a basket of item, they can be dropped off at LCHS during our normal hours of operation. We appreciate all of your support!

Thank you so much to Pawsitively Natural Puppy Treats LLC for doing a fundraiser for the animals at LCHS! We appreciate your support.

Stop by the shelter and place your orders. Your pups will love these delicious treats!

We are extremely excited about this one and could really use some help making this happen! Think of this similar to a school fundraiser (which we'd love to eventually work towards that!)

Introducing our Pawsitive Impact Biscuits! Our goal with these biscuits is to give back as much as possible to different local, non profits!

First up is The Humane Society of Lawrence County PA! Each bag of Biscuits is packed full of natural dog treats made with minimal ingredients!

Orders will be accepted now until September 14. Payment is due in full when placing an order. Then orders will be available for pickup the week of October 1. Specific delivery dates will be announced after we get an idea of how many orders are placed!

Paper orders forms will be available at the Humane Society this week and we will have forms at our booth at the Growers & Makers Market on Saturday!

Let us know if you'd like a paper order form or if you'd like to place an order! Please share this for me!

Edit to add: if you don't have a pup but still want to support, you can buy a bag for the pups at the shelter!

Adopting from shelters and rescues is an act of compassion that has far-reaching impact. Not only does it save the life of the animal you adopt, but it also opens up a space for another animal in need to receive care and support. By choosing to adopt, you create a ripple effect of kindness that inspires others to join the mission of saving lives. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of countless animals and bring love and joy to our own lives in the process.

❀️Meet the inspirational beagle named Amber!

You may recognize this sweet girl as she was the one that was running in Union Township behind Tractor Supply. After several weeks of her eluding trappers, a kind samaritan managed to trap her and bring her to LCHS. This poor girl was covered in ticks, filthy , and having some tummy issues. She was taken to the vet right away. Upon examination, she was also found to have Lyme disease and a mouthful of terrible teeth. Her tummy issues have resolved, she has been spayed, her Lyme disease is under treatment, and all of those bad teeth were taken out. Now sweet Miss Amber is ready to find her perfect match! Could that be you?

Amber
Beagle
Spayed female
Approx. 8 years old

Likes: other dogs, cats, going for walks, and lots of bum scratches and treats

Dislikes: empty food bowls and empty treat bags

If you are interested in adopting this sweet girl, you must first fill out an adoption application on our website. Once your application has been approved, we will give you an appointment for a meet and greet with Amber.

Discover the charming Chooch, a young, neutered male Large Breed mix with a promising future! This handsome fella has a knack for modeling and struts his stuff on a leash like a pro. He's a gentle soul who prefers the company of laid-back canine pals and adores being showered with praise and treats (pupperoni, anyone?). Chooch is seeking a forever home where he can thrive without the presence of cats or young children (under 12). Is your heart big enough to accommodate this lovable pup's dreams? πŸΎπŸ•πŸ’‹πŸ’•

Get ready to fall in love with Sugar! πŸ’‹πŸ’•
This poor girl came to us today covered in fleas, underweight, with overgrown nails, and a terrible skin infection. Thankfully, she got to see Dr. Carr today and is on the road to recovery. With some TLC, special shampoo, and antibiotics, she will hopefully be well enough to find her forever home soon. 🐾🐾
