Our vision is to be part of a community where every pet is a wanted pet.
The Humane Society of Warren County is a non-profit animal shelter in Front Royal, Virginia. Established in 1947, we have been a safe haven to the lost, abandoned and abused pets in Warren County for over 70 years. In 2012 we achieved no-kill status, and are proud to maintain it. You can expect an inviting and welcoming atmosphere when you visit the shelter, and compassionate care for our animals.
We have many community minded programs designed to educate and support our neighbors, including a free pet food bank, a low-cost spay/neuter program, and twice yearly rabies clinics at the shelter.
We are a passionate group of employees, volunteers and fosters working hard to achieve a future where every pet is a wanted pet.
Mission Statement: The Humane Society of Warren County is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing compassionate care to abandoned, abused, homeless and neglected animals in our community.

MEET PUP! Sometimes the dogs who haven’t had the best start in life are the ones who appreciate a little love the most. Meet 3-year-old Pup, a 30-ish pound Pit Mix who is ready to discover just how wonderful life can be! Pup can be a little shy when he first meets you, but give him a little time and patience and his spunky, curious personality starts to shine. Once he knows he’s safe, Pup absolutely LOVES being loved on! Outside is where Pup really gets to show his curious side. He wants to check out everything around him and take in all the sights and smells. He also walks well on leash, is housetrained, and does pretty well riding in the car. Pup has unfortunately not had the best life before coming to us and was kept outside most of the time. We’d love nothing more than to find him a family who will show him what it means to be safe, loved, included, and part of a family. Dogs: Pup is dog selective and seems to prefer female dogs. A dog test will be required with any current dog in the home.Cats: His previous owner said he was interested in cats but generally indifferent toward them. As always, slow and patient introductions are best.Kids: He has only been around older children, so we recommend a home with older kids who can respect his space while he gets comfortable.Pup is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. This sweet boy may need a little time to come out of his shell, but we think the family willing to give him that time is going to discover one pretty special dog. Could you be the person who shows Pup that his best days are still ahead? Come meet Pup and give him the chance to be your new best friend!
Meet Scarlett! This beautiful girl is Scarlett, a 5–7-year-old Terrier mix who is ready to find her forever family! Scarlett came to us as a stray, so unfortunately we don't know much about her past. What we do know is that she is a friendly, sweet girl who absolutely loves people! She walks easily on leash and rides well in the car, making her a great companion for adventures and relaxing days alike. Scarlett is also a smart girl who is ready to learn and continue growing with her new family! We are unsure how Scarlett feels about children, so any kids in the home will need to come meet her. We are also unsure how she is with dogs, and a dog test will be required. Her compatibility with cats is unknown as well.Scarlett is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccines. If you're looking for a beautiful, sweet, smart girl who loves her people, Scarlett may be the one you've been waiting for! Come meet Scarlett and see if she could be your perfect match!
Meet Thor! This handsome 3-year-old Rottie/Shepherd mix is a big boy with an even bigger personality! Weighing in around 70–75 pounds, Thor is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, crate trained, and house trained. Thor is a sweet, smart, and very independent guy who loves going on walks and absolutely loves the water! He is also an escape artist, so his future family will need to keep a close eye on him anytime he is outside. Thor should never be left outside unattended because he is always looking for his next great adventure!Thor has a very high prey drive and needs to be the only animal in the home. He would benefit from continued training to help him learn boundaries and improve his leash manners.Thor is said to be good with kids, but he doesn't always realize just how big he is! Because of his size and enthusiasm, we would want the entire family to come meet him to make sure everyone feels comfortable and is a good fit. Thor does have chronic ear issues due to previous infections and damage, so his adopter should be prepared to continue managing his ears and keeping up with his ongoing needs.If you're looking for a smart, sweet, independent adventure buddy who loves walks, water, and being with his people, Thor may be your guy! Come meet Thor and see if he could be the perfect addition to your family!
