✨ Thanksgiving May Be Over… But Our Thankfulness Isn’t!

As we reflect on the last couple of weeks, we can’t help but feel overwhelmingly grateful. Thanks to our incredible community, many wonderful animals found their forever homes recently and we could not be more thankful.

Your compassion, your support, and your willingness to open your hearts and homes truly embodies the spirit of the season. Every adoption gives an animal a second chance, and every update, smile, and happy tail means the world to us.

From all of us here at LRHS, thank you for choosing adoption, for spreading kindness, and for helping us continue our mission every single day. We hope your holiday was filled with love, gratitude, and wagging tails or gentle purrs. 🧡

Here’s to even more happy beginnings ahead! 🐾

HOME SAFE

Aleau, a 5 year old black and grey agouti coat Husky, a professional sledding dog went missing as of yesterday (11/27/2025) from the Moose Ridge Road in Ossipee, NH. She is a microchipped female who was wearing her name tag collar at the time. The owner had recently reported seeing her today as of 12:30 pm, so we know she is still possibly in the area locally. If you see Aleau, DO NOT CHASE. The owner has let us know that Aleau will run away from strangers, so if you see her, please contact the owner immediately at (603-554-6635) Thank you!

🤎🐾 A Thanksgiving Thank You to Our Foster Caregivers 🐾🤎

This Thanksgiving, all of us at Lakes Region Humane Society want to express our deepest gratitude to our incredible foster families.

You open your homes—and your hearts—to animals who need safety, patience, love, and a soft place to land. It’s not always easy. It takes early mornings, late nights, flexibility, and compassion. But you show up every time—with kindness, dedication, and unwavering commitment.

Thank you for being the bridge between where an animal has been and where they’re meant to go.
Thank you for giving them love, dignity, healing, and hope.
Thank you for changing lives—one foster at a time.

From all of us, and from every furry soul whose life is better because of you:
Happy Thanksgiving. We are so grateful for you. 🧡🐶🐱🍂

🦃 Thanksgiving is right around the corner… and Chippy & Bon Bon are hoping to find something to be extra thankful for this year! 🧡

These two sweet littermates from Texas are still looking for their forever families. At about 3 months old, Chippy and Bon Bon are playful, snuggly, and full of that warm puppy charm that fits perfectly with this cozy holiday season.

What are they thankful for so far?
✨ Soft blankets
✨ Belly rubs
✨ Tasty treats
✨ All the attention they can get
Now they’re just hoping to add a loving home to that list.

Whether you’re prepping for Thanksgiving cooking marathons, watching movies under a throw blanket, or heading out for brisk fall walks, Chippy and Bon Bon would love to be part of it all.

🍂 If your home has room at the table — and on the couch — one of these cuties might just be the perfect addition to your holiday season.

Approved applications are required in order to set up an appointment to meet these little turkeys!

❣️Found Dog❣️

This handsome friendly fella was found near 3 Bluff Blvd in Ossipee and brought to us by the PD. We scanned him for a microchip and did not find one. If he looks familiar, please try to contact his owner and let them know where he is.
We are closed to the public today, but will have staff here till 4:00. We'll keep him safe and warm until he is able to be reclaimed.

🍁 Sweater Weather Special: Meet Chippy & Bon Bon! 🍁

These two adorable littermates from Texas have officially arrived just in time for cozy-season! At about 3 months old, Chippy and Bon Bon are the perfect medium-mix mystery pups — their mom was a poodle–schnauzer blend, and dad… well, he remains an enigma. 😉

What isn’t a mystery?
✨ Their sweetness
✨ Their Texas-sized charm
✨ Their love of snuggling into soft blankets and cozy sweaters

As sweater weather settles in, these two are ready to keep your lap warm, your heart full, and your home filled with puppy joy. Whether you love crisp fall walks or staying indoors with a warm drink, Chippy and Bon Bon are down for it all.

If your ideal autumn involves a cute pup in a cute sweater… these two are waiting. 🍂🧡

To Meet these pups, you must have an approved application on file.

Our mission is to care for cats and dogs in need until they can be adopted, and to promote their health and welfare through community outreach and education.
