Nonprofit no-kill humane society founded in 1953, serving Darke County. Its Humane Agent investigates reports of animal abuse and neglect and provides education to owners. Funds from donations, bequests, grants and fundraising pay for veterinary services, food, shelter, medications and spay/neuter assistance. It runs a trap-neuter-return donation fund and lists local resources and a 24-hour emergency vet service on its resources page.

Before you go

Call or check their page for current prices, appointment availability, any income or residency rules, and which animals they see. Ask what to bring.
