We are so honored to have been invited to celebrate the Bailey Family of Dunkin’ at their beautifully refreshed restaurant in Norridgewock yesterday!
Colleen generously presented us with a large donation, and we are truly blown away by the kindness, generosity, and recognition of the work we do for the animals in our care. 🐾

As a small shelter, the support of local businesses and our community means the world to us, and to the animals we strive to provide for every single day. Thank you for standing beside us and helping make a difference!

Greta 🥰
Greta's story starts out a little sad, but it's quickly turning into something beautiful. This mixed-breed sweetheart was heart-breakingly seen being dumped and had been running loose since September 25, 2025, before the Newport ACO safely brought her to us on October 9th. She had some injuries, but thankfully our friends at the vet clinic were able to help us get her seen.
At first, Greta was understandably nervous- who wouldn't be after all that? But it didn't take long for her true personality to shine through. Now she's one of the sweetest, most loving dogs we've ever met! Greta has a gentle spirit, loves making new friends, and adores other dogs.
She's 2 years old and currently available as a Foster-To-Adopt while she waits for her spay appointment, which means you can start her happily-ever-after today!

Say hello to Wrinkles💕
A beautiful and loving pup who’s been winning hearts left and right since the moment she arrived! She came to us as a stray and is currently being treated for yeast dermatitis, but don’t worry, she’s recovering wonderfully and feeling better every day.
Wrinkles is super sweet, gentle, and affectionate, always ready for cuddles and attention. She seems interested in male dogs and will soon be meeting a few feline friends to see what she thinks of cats.
This lovely lady is 2 years old and available for Foster-to-Adopt while she continues her healing journey and awaits her spay appointment. Come by and let this sweet girl steal your heart!

Princess is 2 years old and ready to find her forever family, could it be yours?

Adopt Diesel!
He’s handsome, sweet, and loving. The full package with just the right amount of “Husky drama.” Diesel keeps his kennel pretty clean suggesting he might be house trained, and he’s got great manners… mostly. Every now and then, the Husky in him shows up like, “Rules? Never heard of her.”
He seems very interested in other dogs and we think he would love a buddy to play with, but cats and chickens? Pass. He thinks they’re running a 5K just for him.
Diesel is 1 years old and is available for Foster To Adopt as he awaits his vet appointment to be neutered.
If you’re ready for laughter, love, and a dash of chaos give us a call and meet Diesel!

🐾 Adopting One Cat Helps Two (and More)! 🐾

When you adopt a cat from the Somerset Humane Society, you’re not just changing one life — you’re changing two! 💕

Each time a cat finds their forever home, it opens up space for another cat in need — including abandoned or stray cats who need a safe, warm place to go, especially as the weather gets colder. ❄️🐱

Your adoption makes room, saves lives, and helps us bring more cats in from the cold.

Come meet your new best friend and make double the difference today! 🏡💖
