The Animal Welfare Society was formed to provide care and protection for suffering homeless and unwanted animals; to educate the public in respect to humane treatment of animals and to encourage and assist in the enforcement of laws against mistreatment of and cruelty to animals.
Among the projects undertaken by AWS was a spay/neuter and adoption program in cooperation with Friends of Animals, Inc. and local veterinarians; cooperative efforts with the county on a rabies prevention program; and a project designed to increase knowledge of county children in proper pet care. These programs, while having gone through a number of changes and enhancements, to this day continue to form the core mission of AWS.

Jefferson County Animal Shelter is a kill shelter located in the tip of the Eastern Panhandle of WV, near Harper's Ferry and Charles Town. The shelter had a very high kill rate until June of 2006, when they started working with a volunteer to move as many adoptable dogs as possible into rescue. From June 2006 through December 2006, more than 100 dogs were adopted or taken into rescue. This marked a 75% reduction in the shelter's euthanasia rate!

We adopt out to the nearby West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania regions. If you live outside this area, please contact Amber for more information.
Shelter volunteers and staff evaluate each animal through regular interaction at the shelter or in foster care. This interaction gives us a better understanding of the animal’s reaction to new situations and people thus allowing us to tell the potential adopter as much as possible about the animal. We can also advise the adopter if a specific animal will be suitable for the adopter’s family

The Mason County Animal Welfare League is a small shelter in a very rural part of West Virginia. We have many wonderful dogs and cats available for adoption. We are very rescue friendly too. We try to place as many adoptable animals as possible. Please visit our website to see their pictures and descriptions. The shelter is located at 1965 Fairground Road, off Route 2, across from the Farm Museum. The map link URL gives directions to the Farm Museum because our street name does not seem to be listed on any internet map websites.

We are a high intake county shelter and need rescue help!
We are NOT a no-kill shelter. Our county commission limits us to 50 dogs and 36 cats max!
Without LOTS of rescue help and adoptions, it will be IMPOSSIBLE for us to maintain the population at this level without euthanizing.
Residents, if you need to surrender an animal, we STRONGLY SUGGEST that you reach out to rescues and no-kill shelters via Petfinder for assistance in rehoming your pet.
Rescues typically keep animals in foster homes rather than a shelter environment. This is a healthier environment and much less stressful for your pet than going into a crowded, noisy shelter.
