Humane Society of Lackawanna County DBA Griffin Pond Animal Shelter
Our Mission
Our mission is to investigate, help prosecute and prevent cruelty to animals; promote adoption awareness, humane education and responsible pet ownership while we care for the many animals surrendered to the shelter to the best of our ability every day until we find them new loving homes.
Adoption Policy
Visiting hours are noon to 3:00 pm, 6 days a week -- closed Tuesdays. Potential adopters are required to complete an application at griffinpondanimalshelter.com prior to interacting with any animals. All adopted animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated for rabies, distemper, bordetella (dogs), microchipped, have had one worming, one flea treatment, and are FeLV/FlV tested (cats). All adopted animals must be seen by a veterinarian annually for check up and vaccinations.
