The primary goal of the Thomaston-Upson County Humane Society, Inc. is to relieve suffering and to reduce the number of unwanted animals in Upson County. The Humane Society raises money to help local citizens who are not financially able to have their pets spayed or neutered. It also assists pet owners with special needs to obtain veterinary care for a sick cat or dog. Referrals can be made through a local veterinarian. A financial assistance form can also be downloaded from this site.

When you email us, please include a phone number.

The Humane Society meets the first Tuesday of each month, excluding January and July, at 6:30 p.m. at the Civic Center in the Arts & Crafts room. Everyone is welcome to attend. Donations are tax deductible and can be sent to P.O. Box 1152.

Dogs for Adoption - Tara & Belle

Tara




Tara is probably a black lab mix. She has white on her feet and on her neck and the tip of her tail. Her tail curls over her back and she has a short coat. Tara is appromiately 7 months. She weighs about 35 lbs. She has been spayed and is up to date on her shots.

Tara is crate-trained, house trained with a doggie door, and has earned the right to be free of her crate at all times. The only time she is crated now is during meals. She has started obedience training and understands sit, down, and stay. She enjoys training and has shown a lot of potential for future training. If adopted locally I will provide 2 free obedience lessons to help her bond with her new family and get off to a good start.

Tara is a very social dog and loves to play with other dogs or people. She has had limited exposure to a cat and seemed okay with them.

Tara hates to be alone. This should not present a problem if she has a canine or human companion.

Since she is so good in the house I want her to be a house dog with a fenced yard for play. She is still an active puppy and will need regular exercise.

Belle

I have what I think may be a purebreed black lab female spayed about 3 years old that is available too. Her name is Belle. Belle is housetrained with a doggie door and is very good with other dogs. She is shy and is very slow to come to you because she is scared. But she is a happy, calm dog that likes to swim and lay around the house with you. Belle is spayed and her shots will be due next month. Both dogs are on heartworm prevention.
