The Hanover Humane Society was organized in July 1986, and with the support of the public, raised $20,000 toward the construction of the new County Pound, which opened in 1990. Hanover Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organizaiton. We are NOT affiliated with Hanover Animal Control or the Hanover County Pound. Animals enter our system either as owner surrenders, transfers from other recognized Rescue Groups, or from a local pound. Animals are given medical care, sterilized, and then are placed in foster homes. Hanover Humane will market the animals and provide for them until they find a forever home. We strive to educate the public on many topics including spay / neuter and proper treatment of animals. This is done through brochures, public speaking, and participating in many events each year that provide us with visibility. The organization is funded through donations from the public and by holding fund raisers.
