The Lassen Humane Society is a non-profit, animal welfare organization made up entirely of volunteers. Our primary goal is to reduce animal euthanasia by promoting spay/neuter and animal adoptions. All donations and funding go toward helping animals in Lassen County. We have no animal shelter and no police powers to rescue or confiscate animals. We also have no emergency or veterinary services. Any animal control issues should be referred to local law enforcement agencies and any medical emergencies should be referred to local veterinarians.

Foster Care Program
Would you like to become a foster parent for our animals waiting to be adopted? Foster care providers take care of animals waiting to be adopted in their own homes and provide daily care, socialization, and basic training. The Lassen Humane Society provides food, spay or neutering, some vaccinations and medical care as funding permits. The animals remain in Lassen Humane Society custody while we work to find permanent homes through our web page, internet advertising on Petfinder.com, local newspaper advertising and promotion at local events. If you are interested in becoming a foster care provider, please call 257-4555 and request an application.

This is a cooperative program between Lassen Humane Society, Lassen County, and the California Correctional Center. We placed 5 dogs with inmates at the firehouse. The inmates had advance canine training prior to receiving their dogs and are receiving ongoing training. Adoption fees start at $200.00 to cover expenses for this program. We will advertise the adoption program for these dogs with the local media, so watch for your chance to adopt a very special dog! For more information, call 257-4555. |
