All we can say is...WOW! 2025 has been a record-br All we can say is...WOW! 2025 has been a record-breaking year for the Humane Society of Greater Dayton. With 2,910 animals already adopted and one day left in the year, we have shattered last year’s record of 2,491 adoptions, an increase of 419 animals or a 16.8 percent increase in adoptions from last year! We couldn't have done this record-breaking feat without YOU! This milestone isn’t just about the numbers though. Each adoption represents a life changed, a family completed, and an animal getting a second chance. Our foster program also reached new heights, providing more than 205,000 hours of care for nearly 1,500 animals, freeing up space in the shelter and helping even more pets find forever homes. We aren't stopping here though! We still have one more day to keep that adoption number growing! Let's keep them momentum going! There is still time to make an impact in 2025. Adopt, foster, or support the Humane Society of Greater Dayton and help more animals find their second chance. For more information or to see the animals we have available for adoption, visit www.hsdayton.org/adopt.
Meet Keebler 🍪🐾 This 3-year-old boy may be a littl Meet Keebler 🍪🐾 This 3-year-old boy may be a little shy at first, but once Keebler feels safe and comfortable, his loving nature truly shines. He enjoys hanging out in high places where he can quietly observe the world, then curling up in a cozy spot when it’s time to relax. Keebler values his personal space, but he has a soft spot for snuggling up with his brother, Milano, and finding comfort in his company. With his sweet, loyal personality and quiet charm, Keebler would make a gentle and devoted companion for someone patient and kind. You can meet Keebler in our open cat room at the shelter or apply to adopt at 👉 hsdayton.org/adopt/cats A huge thank you to @dayton247now for their continued support of all the animals at our shelter, including Keebler, as they wait for their forever homes. 💙
