About this shelter

Humane Society of Greater Akron in Twinsburg, OH

The Humane Society of Greater Akron, doing business as the Humane Society of Summit County, is located in Twinsburg, Ohio, about 15 miles south of Akron in Summit County, where 16 other animal shelters and rescues also operate. The organization's mission is to care for and advocate for vulnerable animals while enriching the lives of pets and people, offering adoption, fostering, and mobile adoption services for dogs, cats, and other small animals. It also runs a humane investigation program for reporting animal cruelty, a mobile veterinary clinic named Mabel, a pet food assistance program, and a Happy Tails Thrift Shop to support its work. Adoption hours run daily, with dogs and cats available for adoption at standard fees, and the shelter emphasizes thoughtful, slow introductions when placing pets into homes with existing animals.
