Providing a Safe Space for All Animals
Animals come to the Humane Society of Greater Dayton in several ways. The saddest of which are those that come through our Cruelty and Neglect Investigations Program. Whether it is an animal that is a victim of abuse or one that has been neglected, it is our responsibility to provide these animals with a safe space to heal.
A Safe Haven to Heal
Through our Caryl D. Philips Animal Rehabilitation Center, we give animals a safe place to escape and find a comfortable home for them to rehabilitate. Although our rehabilitation center is only for animals who are part of our Cruelty and Neglect Investigations Program, the public helps us with these animals by being their voices. Through your reports, you give our humane agents the opportunity to investigate and remove animals from harm so they can receive their second chance.
623
In 2024, 623 cases of cruelty and neglect were investigated.

Support to Make a Full Recovery
Animals who come into our facilities through our Cruelty and Neglect Investigations Program arrive with a full range of needs. From emergency medical care to extended rehabilitation, the cost to care for these cases can be extensive. To support their rehabilitation, consider donating to the Humane Society of Grater Dayton’s Rescue Fund. Through this fund, you support the medical care and treatment for these abused and neglect animals.
