Blount County Humane Society

Our mission is to implement the no kill concept and turn Blount County into a community that saves animals from shelters.

The Humane Society of Tennessee Valley has been caring for animals since 1885, making it the state's oldest animal shelter.

Nationwide, 6 million dogs and cats are brought into shelters each year. Approximately half of them will be put to death due to a lack of money rather than bad health or aggressive problems.
