Dogs are the canine companions who have shared our lives for millennia.

Dogs give us their best. They deserve ours.
Just petting a dog has been shown to lower a person's blood pressure.
Workers and volunteers from the Humane Society of the United States, along with shelter and rescue partners, assisted in relocating rescued puppy mill dogs in Person County, NC.

Did you know?
Your dog’s sense of smell is 10,000 times better than yours. Dogs can track people and other animals across many miles, detect dangerous substances and have even been known to sniff out signs of cancer.
End this cycle of cruelty by donating to help shut down puppy mills and continue our lifesaving work for all animals.
