Every humane organization dreams of the day when cruelty to animals can be reduced to the point of elimination. The OHIO SPCA (formerly known as the Ohio Humane Education Association) was formed in 1983 to help bring this dream to reality through humane education. The Ohio Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals works to prevent and stop cruelty to animals throughout Ohio. Our mission falls into three main areas: 1) intervention in cases of animal cruelty, 2) animal rehabilitation, and 3) rural county reform. For the past ten years the OHIO SPCA has been bringing reform to rural county pounds. As a result, the use of bullets, engine exhaust, gas boxes, and gas chambers has ended in all but a handful of counties. Our intervention has resulted in proactive adoption procedures, proper cleaning, spay/neuter programs, and humane euthanasia. Thousands of lives have been saved. Our work in this area is ongoing. The Ohio SPCA is the leading statewide organization for rescuing animals other than just dogs and cats. There are nearly 200 horses, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, rabbits, ducks, and chickens in our care at any given time. Animals not adopted remain with us due to age or special needs. We pride ourselves in providing the best of care. With us, their bodies and spirits are made strong again.
