Franklin County Animal Shelter

Our operations and services at SHS, a 501(c)3 no-kill shelter in Skowhegan, Maine, are primarily supported by private donations. We do not accept any federal tax funding, and we are not associated with any other American humanitarian organizations.

HSWA has provided a shelter for animals in need since 1970. The animal's quality of life is always our priority. We are an open-admission, high adoption institution.

A non-profit, charity organization known as P.A.L.S. started as a no-kill cat shelter in 1980. This nonprofit is not financed by the government. P.A.L.S. funded by membership fees, fundraising efforts, tribute gifts, contributions, and bequests. We really need your assistance.

A humane, nonprofit organization called Maine Greyhound Placement Service is committed to helping retired racing Greyhounds who are unable to compete on racetracks find caring, responsible homes.

We think that by fostering the link between animals and people, we can build a kinder society. Our goal is to improve lives by finding adoptive homes for animals so they can flourish in an environment of kindness and care.
