Each year we rescue hundreds of unwanted cats and dogs in Floyd County. All these pets receive veterinary care, vaccinations, de-worming, tick control, and spay / neuter surgeries as well as the basic necessities to maintain them while in our care, which may extend to months or even years. We do not euthanize except for truly serious health or behavior problems so you can imagine that our costs per animal greatly exceed their adoption fees. We also underwrite reduced cost spay / neuter surgeries for low income pets. Please consider making a tax deductible gift to help us help them.

Buck Needs Your Help
Meet Buck – a 5 year old American Bulldog that was diagnosed as having a calcified disk that ruptured into his spinal column. The first picture was last year before he got sick. The bottom picture was taken a short while ago – when he was first diagnosed. He has chronic pain that can only be fixed with surgery, which is expected to cost $3,500. The family cannot afford the surgery, so FCHS is asking for donations to help. Buck is a very sweet, gentle dog and the family cannot bear the thought of him suffering or possibly losing him if they cannot get the surgery. Please help him walk again.
* All donations are tax deductible. Checks may be made payable to Floyd County Humane Society and specify Buck’s surgery fund on the memo line. If you choose to use paypal, please e-mail floydhumane09@yahoo.com and let us know that you have made a donation (include donation amount) to Buck’s surgery fund so that we will know how to apply your donation.

Thank-you to everyone that donated to help Cracker. He can now have his surgery!!!
His story... a 3yr old Lab mix. Before going into the Pound (& rescued), Cracker was badly treated. His left front elbow got an infection and the owners did not attend to it right away. The untreated infection left him with muscles and tendons unable to hold the elbow totally in place. He was also shot at and has buckshot throughout him body.
Cracker's left hip was hit with a baseball bat and left him with a fracture at the neck of the femur and it still has not totally healed and gives him a lot of pain. Cracker needs a total hip replacement in order to have a good quality of life - without pain.
The Floyd County Humane Society is the proud recipient of a generous grant for spay/neuter of feral cats from the Build-A-Bear Workshop Bear Hugs Foundation. The Build-A-Bear Workshop Bear Hugs Foundation is committed to making life more bearable for children, families and pets, in need of a helping paw. With the sale of each full-sized Bearemy’s Kennel Pals friend – a collection of Build-A-Bear Workshop plush dogs – one dollar is donated to domestic pet programs including local animal shelters, stray pet rescue and rehabilitation organizations, and pet education programs around the country. These funds are available to qualified non-profit organizations in the United States and Canada. Visit www.buildabear.com for more information.

The Floyd County Humane Society is dedicated to the principle that all animals deserve responsible and respectful treatment.
We serve Floyd County, in the New River Valley, by promoting this basic principle, providing for needy animals, assisting the Floyd Pound, and facilitating low cost spay and neuter surgeries.
FCHS is a non-profit, all volunteer, foster-based, all breed, humane society with 501(c)3 status. We work closely with the Floyd Pound which is maintained by the Animal Control Division of the Sheriff’s Department. We are also independent of the Humane Society of the United States and do not receive funding from either entity.
Thundershirts are helping shelters and rescue groups across the country to manage the dogs they receive with anxiety, fear and excitement issues. For as little as $27, your Thundershirt Donation will be put to excellent use helping to transition one of our wonderful dogs back to a forever home.
