For The Protection & Care Of All Animals...
Your Lexington Humane Society Online is here to provide you with a place to search for and adopt a new best friend and keep you posted on upcoming events and new developments at the shelter. LHS is a non-profit humane agency caring for more than 11,000 animals each year.
Our mission is to eradicate animal cruelty; advocate compassion; educate; heal; represent hope and to provide our community with safe, loving shelter and benevolent care for all of its animals in need.
LHS relies solely on private donations. We hope as you browse our site that you'll recognize the importance of our programs. Please help us. Thanks!
