Good evening,

Although this is amazing support for our animals leaving the shelter, we do ask that if you decide to join the support of Aladdin's send off, you do not block our parking lot from other visitors, potential adopters, scheduled appointments, volunteers, etc.

Our facility unfortunately does not have the capacity to handle large groups of public inside, neither does our parking area.

We thank you in advance for the continued support, especially for our adoptable animals and their furever homes.

Thank you WNEP for dropping by the shelter this morning to talk about pet safety during the 4th of July holiday! More coverage coming up later today 🇺🇸🐱🐶 Be sure to tune in ❤️

Fireworks on July 4th cause anxiety in pets, leading to more intakes at Luzerne County SPCA.

Can you believe it’s already July?! Bring this sweet guy home so he can be part of your July 4th celebrations ❤️ 🤍 💙

Logan needs a home without other dogs, and a home with kids who can give him space. We don’t know how he is with kids.

Logan tends to be weary of men and protective of women, so we would love this shepherd mix to go to a home where his new family will be patient with him, and work with him ❤️

Apply for Logan today at spcaluzernecounty.org!

This morning the SPCA of Luzerne County along with the Domestic Violence Service Center held the Purple Paws Cause Ribbon Cutting Ceremony at Mayor Brown's Office.

This project is dedicated to empowering victims of domestic violence, especially with children, helping them to overcome the barriers that prevent them from leaving dangerous situations, particularly the fear of abandoning their beloved companion animals.

In a region where community shelters do not accommodate both people and their animals, we proudly provide essential support to their companion pets, by offering boarding, food, and veterinary care for 30 days: at no expense to the owners.

This gives them needed time to regain their footing, allowing for a heartfelt reunion.

We would like to thank Mayor Brown, and staff for the warm hospitality and recognition of the significance of this project for our community’s future.

David Pedri and The Luzerne Foundation along with the Laura J. Niles Foundation for the generous grants that have provided us with the necessary funds to launch this vital project.
The DVSC whose willingness to embrace our efforts and provide crucial information has shown us just how essential this program is.

Thank you to all of our Board Members and staff who have supported our initiative.

This is your SPCA, we have been a beacon of hope for the voiceless since 1957, inspiring all who share our love and compassion for companion animals.

To inquire about the program, ALL calls must go through the DVSC at: 570-823-7312 (24/7)

We would like to thank the awesome team from Reaching Beyond Limits in Kingston for their generous donations!
Reaching Beyond Limits (RBL) provides services and supports that assist adults with autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disabilities in the Luzerne-Wyoming and surrounding counties.
They were kind enough to collect some much needed items and bring them in.
Thank you!!
