Humane Society of Jackson County, Inc.

BCHS has been an institution committed to providing humane care for animals in need in Bartholomew County for over 50 years.

In an effort to ensure the safety of both residents and animals in the neighborhood, we advocate responsible pet ownership, assist with the housing and care of stray and abandoned domestic animals, look into complaints of animal mistreatment and bites, and promote pet adoption.

In Jackson County, Indiana, we operate a charity pet foster family network. We assist local pet owners with pet rehoming, rescue, and rehabilitation. While utilizing all available resources to locate suitable new housing, we offer health care and secure refuge.

Since the establishment of our organization in 2007, contacts have been made with numerous rescue organizations. Every week, rescue organizations across the region receive shipments of dogs and cats.

The goal of the Columbus Animal Care Services Department is to safeguard and improve the welfare, health, and safety of both animals and community members.
