Helping pets and people

Since 1977

Lemhi County Humane Society owns & operates the Salmon Animal Shelter and Rags & Wags Thrift Store.

SAS provides high-quality sheltering services for the homeless pets of Lemhi County.

We also provide funds for public spay and neuter programs in an attempt to decrease the number of dogs and cats entering our shelter. We serve as a line of defense against animal abuse & neglect, working closely with law enforcement officials, to ensure that all animals in Lemhi County are treated in a kind and humane manner.

Animal Shelter Hours:

10:00am – 6:00pm
7 Days a Week

Rags & Wags Thrift Store Hours:

8:00am – 4:00pm M-F
10:00 – 2:00pm on Saturday

Our newest Bachlorette Fluffy wants to remind everyone that TOMORROW is the start of the Bissell EMPTY THE SHELTERS event! Our cat adoption fee will only be  $20, and our dog adoption fee will be $40! There was some confusion about previously posted amounts, but these are the prices of the adoption fees! Cathy Bissell and BISSELL Pet Foundation are why we can have this event and hopefully more in the future!

Back to our Bachelorette, she has spent the last year living outside after her owner passed away, and the neighbors brought her to us because they knew she was too precious to keep living in the streets! She has really warmed up to us and has been a rockstar patient during her ear treatment. To learn more about her, please follow the link below or come visit her any day of the week from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.!

Our adoptable cat, Cecil, needed to pop in to give some updates! Due to increased animal numbers, special adoption events, and staff training, we will have new hours starting 4/30/24 and will be in effect until further notice! We will be open daily to the public from 11 am to 5 pm. These hours will not interfere with animal care as staff will still be here for their regular shifts, but this will allow us to guarantee every animal gets the care they deserve and allow us to better match you with your new best friend. We appreciate the communitys understanding at this time.

Aww, handsome boy <3 🤗

The Lucy puppies are now on their way to their new homes! We are incredibly thrilled to see them go to fantastic new families! We cannot express enough gratitude towards the foster family who dedicated many hours of love and care to allow these puppies and Lucy to thrive in a home setting instead of a shelter. We love our fosters and appreciate each and every single one of them!Image attachmentImage attachment+1Image attachment

Look at the smile on this Bachelorette! We appreciate how she always goes the extra mile to support and protect her loved ones. This bachelorette is a loyal and reliable companion. She is great with kids, gets along well with most other dogs, and is learning to befriend cats.  She enjoys frozen Kong treats and knows basic commands. You can usually find her lounging in the sun or cooling off in her water tub in the dog yard.Image attachmentImage attachment+2Image attachment

When the day gets hectic and the phone does not seem to stop, sometimes we have to pull out the big KITTY! Kitty helped us greet visitors and take some calls. He wanted to wish everyone a Happy Administrative Professional Day, as he knows how hard it can be! Kitty was wondering if you need any office help; as you can see, he has the experience!Image attachment
