The Florence Area Humane Society was founded in 1974 as a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt non-profit charitable organization that rescues and shelters abandoned, abused, and neglected animals in the Florence community. The mission of FAHS is to rehabilitate them, provide appropriate medical care, and place them in forever, loving homes, ensuring happiness for both pet and owner. We promote adoptions as well as seek animal rescues to find suitable placement for the almost 2000 animals we take in annually.
Anyone interested in adopting an animal from the FAHS is required to fill out a pre-adoption application. Potential adopters must be able to provide documentation that current pets are up to date with vaccines (including rabies), heartworm prevention, and the pets have been spayed/neutered. Permission to contact the current veterinary practice is also required. Efforts will be made to notify adopters of approval as timely as possible. Please be aware pre-adoption reviews may take up to one week.
