Who We Are

Our Mission

To help animals and people in Norfolk County and to promote and provide education on good pet ownership and care for all animals.

Vision Statement

For all animals to be treated with compassion without the threat of ever being unwanted or abandoned, they might live in a community where overpopulation of companion animals is diminished by humane intervention not euthanasia.

About Simcoe and District Humane Society

Chartered in 1953, Simcoe and District Humane Society volunteers have provided Animal Welfare Services in and around Norfolk County.

Simcoe and District Humane Society is a non-profit, charitable organization relying on fundraising activities and donations from members of the community.

Volunteers look after every aspect of the Society including daily operations and working hands on with the animals from intake to adoption. Foster homes and the temporary shelter are a great asset to the Society as the organization prepares to raise funds for a much-needed building.

Education and Fact-Based Seminars

Volunteers are always preparing for Educational Seminars on our Foster Care Program, interactions with scared and less social animals, directives on appropriate animal care and information on Simcoe and District Humane Society.

Are you interested in gaining knowledge in these areas or have a group or organization that wants to know more about SDHS please click on the button below. 

S.W.A.P.

We Need Volunteers to help with our Seniors With Animals as Pets Program!

Pets make great companions for seniors and SDHS tries to help Seniors keep their pets in their homes instead of surrendering them.

This is better for both the Senior and their pet!

Volunteers visit the home and help place bowls, litter pans, and other needs of the animal to help the senior care for their pet, or it's possible daily visits may be needed.

Dog walking, playtime, vet visits may also be asked from the Society.

We need your help to enable us to continue the program.

Helping Hands Helping Hearts

One of our busiest programs relies on donors, foster homes, and boarding facilities as we help those facing difficult life events. 

It may be just a helping hand with some extra pet food until payday or a 6–8-week pet stay while owners are in a shelter due to a family violence situation. 

SDHS works closely with many County organizations and support services to help family pets in need.

We need your help with donations of food, pet related supplies, money, and foster homes to help this program.  You can donate at the shelter, by PayPal or   e-transfer finance@s-dhs.ca 

Click on the link to become a foster home for bunnies, cats, dogs, small animals, rodents, and others while the owner gets the help they need.

  Many SPCA's and Shelters are initiating programs such as this, however, SDHS has been busy with this program for 20+ years.
