The Humane Society of Elmore County is located in
Wetumpka, Alabama (Elmore County) just northeast of Montgomery in
south-central Alabama. We are a non-profit, 501(c)3, organization
and have been operational for almost twenty years at the same
location. Our shelter is an Open Admission shelter taking in over
5,000 domestic animals annually from Elmore County citizens and from
the various Animal Control Officers (ACO) from throughout Elmore
County. We work every day to provide a safe and humane environment
for the 250-300 animals in our care and to also find loving and
lifetime homes for as many of them as possible. We strive to educate
the public on issues involving pets and animal welfare and welcome
opportunities to address groups of all ages and interests. Our
operational expenses are met through donations from private
individuals, groups and businesses, our own fund-raising activities,
grants, adoption fees and the contracts we have with cities and the
county to accept animals from their ACO's. We gratefully accept
financial donations, donations of pet food and supplies at the
shelter, and items for our Tails End Thrift Store located adjacent
to the shelter. All donations to our shelter are tax deductible and
we will happily provide a receipt for any donation as requested. To
learn more about our shelter, please take a bit of time to go
through our website as we think you will find the answers to many
questions here. If you would like to verify our non-profit status
or review our IRS Form 990, just go to
www.guidestar.com (must register to see all reports, but it is
free).
Thank you for your support and for being a partner
with us in helping improve the lives of animals and people alike.

The mission of The Humane Society of Elmore County is to insure the
best possible quality of life for animals, to prevent cruelty to
animals, to stop pet overpopulation, to strive for the humane care,
treatment, and well-being of all animals through education and
information, and to promote public health and safety in regards to human
and animal interaction.
ATTENTION: Due to the silent auction
HSEC is moving our July shelter board meeting to Tue, 7 July (a week
early).
HSEC in need of dry dog food
This is rare that we have to ask for help with
food, but our normal sources of donated food have been very slim lately
and we are critically low on dry dog food. So if you happen to be
shopping and don’t mind tossing an extra bag in for us we (and
especially our dogs) would be most appreciative. We love brands that do
NOT have all those red and green dyes in them – plain brown is good as
it helps us in watching out for potential illnesses. We can use both
adult and puppy dry food. Thank you so much!!!

We now have yet another way for you to help our pets! All of
our pets posted on www.Petfinder.com
now have a Sponsor Me button to make it that much easier to sponsor a
pet and help us help our animals. When you see this link
all of your dollars will go to help us care for that pet and we thank
Petfinder for such a great program to help even more pets find loving
and lifetime homes.
The Alabama Animal
Alliance, Inc. has opened a groundbreaking facility to combat our area's
severe pet overpopulation problem. It is well known that there are far
too many healthy, adoptable dogs and cats than there are responsible
homes for them. As a result, every day animals are euthanized in area
shelters or left to fend for themselves along our county roads. The
clinic provides low-cost spay/neuter services to the cats and dogs of
central and south Alabama.
