Become a Friend of the Shelter!
Join a community of animal lovers who believe every pet deserves safety, dignity, and love. As a Friend of the Shelter, your support helps us care for animals in need whether it’s an abandoned kitten, a lost dog, or an aging pet whose owner can no longer care for them. Your support means they’ll be met with open arms and a soft place to land.
When you become a Friend of the Shelter, you’ll receive a sticker, insider updates, and invitations to Friends-only events celebrating the animals and people who make this work possible.
Lemhi County Humane Society is a non-profit, charitable 501(c)(3) organization, and your donations are tax-deductible.

Today we’re celebrating National Love Your Pet Day the best kind of holiday if you ask us 🐾❤️
Meet our spotlight star: Pongo
Also known as: Ponch, Dawa, Pongo Ongo, Poncho, and of course… Handsome.
Because let’s be honest, no pet survives with just one name. They collect nicknames like treasures. Some earned, some ridiculous, all said with love.
Now it’s your turn 👇
Drop a photo of your pet in the comments and tell us their real name… and all the names that somehow happened along the way.
We can’t wait to see the Floofs, the Sir Wigglebottoms, the Queen Beans, and the Tiny Tornadoes of Lemhi County 🐶🐱💛 ... See MoreSee Less
