Woof! Meow! One thing before you go…

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?

Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!

The Dent County Animal Welfare Society formed in 1990 with the hope of improving conditions for animals and creating awareness in this area.

It is and always has been the goal of our organization to be a "no-kill" shelter. Despite all obstacles, we have kept the euthanasia rate at less than 20% average over the ten years of operation, a lower rate than most no-kill shelters have.

Address: PO Box 565 Masters Industrial Park HWY 32 E Salem MO 65560 Phone: 573-729-3556
