Hub City Humane Society 4.59

We have been blessed with the opportunity to bring forth a new era in animal welfare for our community. The Hub City Humane Society is moving forward with plans to construct a new community based animal shelter on a 50+ acre parcel located in the of Hattiesburg area. The size of this parcel will make possible many new and groundbreaking programs as well as a new state of the art animal care facility. This facility will far exceed any animal shelter in this state. Programs will include: extensive humane education, youth animal training programs, agility training, a community park, and a dog park just to name a few.

Groups involved with this endeavor include the local veterinary community, multiple departments and groups from USM, local government, and other knowledgeable community members. We are seeking input from local pet lovers. Ideas and suggestions can be emailed to hubcityhumsoc@aol.com or you can call 601-268-1157 and speak with Alisha or Brenda. Your ideas and suggestions will be of great value. Our corporation was recognized at the end of February 2011 and non-profit status is in the application phase. Any and all monetary donations would be greatly appreciated. When non-profit status is achieved, these donations will be tax deductible.
