Somerset Animal Shelter

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.

Leadership and strategic guidance are responsibilities of the Board of Directors of the Franklin County Animal Shelter. The Board is made up residents who are dedicated to providing homeless animals with sanctuary until they can be adopted by loving families.

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.

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.

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.
