Humane Society Pet Rescue & Adoption Center A non-profit animal welfare organization serving Etowah County, Alabama since 1973. Fundraising events include Paws for St.

The Humane Society was incorporated on April 30, 1973, to relieve suffering and to enhance the lives of animals through humane and educational services to the residents of our community. Initially an organization without an actual facility, the Humane Society was housed in a number of different locations. January 2, 2008, the Humane Society cut the ribbon on its new 14,000 square-foot Pet Rescue and Adoption Center. The Humane Society Pet Rescue and Adoption Center serves as a center for pet adoptions and also provides animal control sheltering services for the cities of Gadsden and Attalla. The Society houses animals brought in by the public, strays, and all animals brought in by animal control officers in the contracted municipalities, including animals involved in cruelty cases. The HSPRAC employs an Executive Director and staff, and is governed by a volunteer board of directors. The HSPRAC also relies on hundreds of volunteers throughout the community who assist with programs and fund-raising. Humane Society Pet Rescue and Adoption Center programs include educational outreach through school programs, and youth volunteer programs. Community outreach programs including spay and neuter programs, bite prevention education, and pet health care education; community awareness events including Pawsapalooza Benefit Concert, Howloweenie Parade and the Reindeer Run. Patty auction gala, Howloween Costume Bash, and Roadblocks to name a few.

💔 166 DAYS. ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SIX DAYS.

166 days of waiting. 166 days of hoping someone would finally see them. 166 days of watching other dogs leave for their forever homes while Jasper and Jasmine are still here.

And we are BEGGING. We are pleading. We are asking with everything in us for someone to please give these two precious souls the chance they deserve. 😭

❤️ Jasper & Jasmine ❤️ A bonded pair who have been waiting far too long.

These two beautiful Senior Paws came to our shelter in mid-May through no fault of their own. Their family was facing difficult health and life circumstances, and Jasper and Jasmine found themselves starting over in a place they never imagined they would be.

They have spent 166 DAYS in a shelter kennel, waiting for someone to choose them.

Jasper is the handsome blue-gray spotted gentleman with the most soulful eyes. At 6.5 years old, he is gentle, affectionate, and absolutely adores being loved on.

Jasmine is his sweet little brindle lady, 8.5 years young, with the happiest smile and a heart just as beautiful as her face.

And these two? They are each other’s comfort. Their familiar face. Their constant companion through all the uncertainty.

They are so gentle and well-mannered together. They walk beautifully on a leash, enjoy little strolls, love affection, and are happiest simply spending time together. Jasmine might wander off to investigate something interesting, but her sweet Jasper is never far behind. 🥺

They have done nothing wrong. They are not asking for much. They just need someone to open their home and their heart to BOTH of them.

We know adopting two dogs is a big commitment. We know older dogs are often overlooked. But please, PLEASE don’t let that be the reason Jasper and Jasmine spend another day waiting.

They deserve a soft bed.
They deserve a peaceful home.
They deserve to wake up somewhere they belong.
They deserve to be loved for the rest of their lives.

They have already lost their home once. Please help us keep them from losing any more precious time waiting for another one.

💝 THEIR ADOPTIONS ARE SPONSORED! A heartfelt thank-you to the generous donor who made this possible. Their adoption fees are covered, and now all they need is someone willing to give them a chance.

🌷 Senior Paws. Bonded pair. MUST be adopted together. 🌷

🙏 PLEASE SHARE THIS POST. Share it with your friends, your family, your coworkers, your rescue groups. Share it anywhere someone might see these two and fall in love.

We are pleading for Jasper and Jasmine. 166 days is far too long for two dogs who have so much love left to give.

Please. Let their next chapter be a home. Let their next goodbye be to the shelter. Let these two sweet souls finally know what it feels like to be chosen again. 💔🐾

💙🐾 Once again, Fluff & Buff Grooming Studio LLC has gone ABOVE AND BEYOND for our staff and shelter babies! 🐾💙

Every year, Fluff & Buff sells their adorable bandanas and generously donates 100% of the proceeds to our shelter. And this year, they took their generosity one step further… they did the shopping for us! 🥹🛒🐶🐱

They took the time to find and purchase items our shelter and animals desperately need, and we truly cannot put into words how much that means to us. ❤️

Our staff is incredibly grateful, and our fur babies are even more grateful! Every bag of food, every much-needed item, and every act of kindness makes a difference in the lives of the animals counting on us.

Fluff & Buff, thank you for continuously showing up for us and our animals. You don’t just groom our babies and make them feel beautiful — you continue to support them long after they leave your grooming table. 🥹🐾

We are SO lucky to have people like you in our corner. Thank you for loving our shelter babies as much as we do! ❤️🐾

Please show Fluff & Buff some love for being the amazing humans they are! 🥰

✨🐾 POWDER HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN PROMOTED! 🐾✨

While we were at Rise and Shine Wellness Center LLC, we came to meet some wonderful people… and Powder apparently came to get hired. 😂

We’re SO happy to say our sweet girl Powder found her perfect fit and was ADOPTED! 🥹❤️

And she’s already climbed the corporate ladder. She had her FIRST STAFF MEETING yesterday and immediately laid down the ground rules. 😂

Her new title?

👑 CEO — Canine Executive Officer
💰 Head of Treat Acquisition
📋 Director of “Do It My Way”
🛋️ VP of Couch Occupancy
🚨 Chief Human Supervisor

We’re just grateful she finally found a company willing to meet her salary demands: treats, belly rubs, and unlimited employee benefits. 😉

A HUGE thank you to Rise and Shine Wellness Center for having us Saturday! We met some amazing people, and thanks to you, Powder met her people. ❤️

We couldn’t be happier for our girl. Congratulations, Powder — we always knew you were management material. 😂🐾👑
