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 Tri Lakes Humane Society was founded in 1942 by a group of teenagers concerned about the welfare of Saranac Lake's unwanted animals. The first "animal shelter" was a doghouse surrounded by chicken wire. When the young members found unwanted animals that they were able to take in to their homes, they cared for them there until a new home was found. At that time, the shelter was called "Adirondack Animal Welfare Society".
In 1973 an office was rented on Woodruff Street where paperwork was completed, phone calls and messages were recorded, and donations were received.
During that year, the shelter was renamed "Tri Lakes Humane Society" and a motto was created..."We speak for those who cannot." With the help of Henry Uihlein and other generous donations in 1975, an old meat packing plant was purchased and renovated to become a shelter! From then on, hundreds of animals were brought in and adopted out. In 1999, a policy was adopted to become a no-kill facility.

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.
