We are a private, non-profit, no-kill 501c3 animal shelter serving Southern Franklin County since 1973. We receive no funding from state or local government for all the necessary services we provide, so we rely exclusively on donations from our generous supporters. For 2022, we have maintained a save rate of 94% for all animals that have come into our care. We have done this through TNVR of commun

ity cats, providing a pet food pantry for those most in need, offering behavioral consultation to pet parents, and growing our foster network, especially for kittens who are often too young to survive in a shelter environment. We thank you for your support in our mission to promote the well-being of animals and our community through education, care, adoption, and outreach.

Happy Foster Friday from our boy Orson who has been hanging out in a foster home for two weeks now! 💕
Our main focus when it comes to dog fosters is finding placements for dogs who are not thriving in the kennel environment, seniors and dogs that have medical troubles. Information on our fostering program and the information on how to apply to be a dog foster can be found here: https://antietamhumanesociety.org/foster-dogs-puppies/

Orson specifically is still looking for his forever home and is available to be visited with upon the completion of an adoption application! He has been working on his manners, housetraining and generally how awesome living in a home can be. He loves the other dogs in his foster home and is wonderful with the kids! Orson is a tough chewer and goes through toys very easily so some tougher toys or someone who doesn't mind sweeping up stuffing around their home. Orson is still patiently waiting for his forever home and more information on him can be found from our website! Any other questions can be directed to 717-762-9091 or by email!
Feel free to share so we can find Orson his forever home! 🐾

Thank you to Orson's foster family as well for providing him a comfortable place to be as he waits for him to find the home he can call his very own!

Phases 1 and 2 of our sensory garden are complete! A huge thank you to the volunteers from Lowe's Home Improvement of Waynesboro, Specialty Granules LLC , Penn State Mont Alto and to Lisa Horton and Nicky McDougal who heard the director's wish to create this garden and ran with it! We have most of the hardscaping complete and the fence (fully donated by Lowes of Waynesboro) installed.

We are on to phase 3 with planting. We will be using native plants that are safe for pets. If anyone would like to help or has some plants they've thinned out and are looking to rehome, please contact the shelter to see if they will be safe for the garden.

Thank you so much to our community businesses for your continued support! We can't wait to let our dogs run around in the garden and use all their senses!

Meet Remy the rat! 🐀

Remy came to us a stray November 2024 and is now ready for his new home!
Remy the master chef LOVES mashed bananas as a snack. He isn’t the biggest fan of attention but will hang out in the hood of a hoodie while you are venturing around the house. While we have not seen Remy with a rat friend it would be best if he went to a home with a sterilized friend as he is not neutered. If Remy sounds like the right furry critter for you, stop on by and meet him today!

November marks National Adopt a Senior Pet Month. Our shelter has recently experienced an influx of pets this year, with two charming and senior individuals, Rose and Blanche, still awaiting adoption. Initially timid, these 10-year-old gentle souls reveal their affectionate nature once familiarized. Further information on these adoptable seniors can be found on our website, encouraging consideration of senior pet adoption this month! ❤️🐾

Ms. Koda is one of our longest term dogs and is still waiting to find her forever home! 💕
This pretty, husky girl came to us in January 2023 and is looking for a very particular home that can continue her training, socialization, and love her regardless of all her quirks! Koda is definitely a dog that loves to be outside and going on adventures! Even with the weather turning cool, she has not let that bother her in the slightest and still wants to go splashing through the water! Anytime she goes to the park she is always prepared to go swimming and to run through the leaves. When she has made friends with you, Koda is an absolute snuggle bug! She loves to be up in people's laps and LOVES to give kisses. Koda is very polite when she is out in public and walks nicely on leash. She also loves taking rides in the cars, especially when she knows she is going on an adventure!
Since being in our care, Koda has displayed resource guarding tendencies in her kennel that we have continued to work with. Due to this, we are asking that she go to a home where she is the only animal and with adopters who will understand that it may be an ongoing behavior that needs worked with. Koda does know 'sit', 'come', 'wait', and 'leave it'. She is extremely treat motivated and is always happy to get a snack!
Potential adopters are able to visit Koda only with an approved application on file. More information about this energetic girl can be found on our website or under our 'Available Dogs' album here on Facebook. Any questions can also be directed to us at 717-762-9091 or by email!
If you think you could potentially be a good home for Koda then be sure to reach out! 💜

Our happy boy, Sai, loves going and hanging out at the park! 🐾
This handsome boy came to us at the end of November 2023 and has almost been here for an entire year! Sai does have some behavioral troubles that we have been working very hard to help him with and a patient home who understands and continues his training will be necessary for Sai.
Even though he is 70lbs, Sai most certainly sees himself as a lapdog! When he is with his favorite people he is always curled up as close as can be to get all the butt scratches and belly rubs that he can. Sai is not much of a player when it comes to toys but does seem to like having them when he is hanging out on his own. He is not picky when it comes to his treats and has been working very hard on his commands. Sai walks politely on leash, knows 'sit', 'wait', 'leave it' and 'be nice' as a reminder when he is interacting with new people.
For as wonderful and loving as we know him to be, Sai does struggle with his behavior near men due to his background. We are aware he had some negative interactions with men in his previous home and that tends to be what causes his anxiety and fear aggression. We do feel Sai would do best in a women-only home. Sai previously lived with other dogs and has done wonderfully meeting other dogs on his outings! He is working on being able to be near cats and has been doing great with his training in regards to that as well.

We are still hopeful that Sai can find that home that is just right for him! He is such a wonderful boy with staff and we would love for him to find the home that will welcome him into their hearts with all his quirks, goofiness and affection. 💕
To visit with Sai, you do need to have an approved application which can be completed online or in person here at the shelter. We can also be reached at 717-762-9091 or by email for any further questions!
