Who We Are
Lucy Mackenzie Humane Society began caring for the unwanted companion animals of our region in 1915. We have currently just opened a state of the art shelter on RT 44 in W. Windsor. Until recently we were a limited admissions shelter but we have improved our adoption program, consequently
adopting out more animals and able to take in more animals. We are in the process of re-creating ourselves so be on the lookout for great new programs and
pictures of our new shelter!
We serve the following communities
in Vermont:
Barnard, Hartford,
(White River Jct, Wilder, Quechee)
Plymouth, Pomfret, Royalton,
Stockbridge, Strafford, & Woodstock
We also take in many more animals from Upper Valley
Communities in New Hampshire
Adopting a Friend
The goal of our adoption program is to match our animals with loving, responsible, life-long homes. Prospective adopters are asked to fill out an adoption application with very basic information. Some of that information will need to be verified by shelter staff which may take a day or two, depending on the availablity of the references. Once approved, the shelter staff will work with the adopting family in making the final decision on the best pet for their home and
lifestyle.
Volunteering and Donations
We do not currently have a formal volunteer program in place. What we do offer is the opportunity for people to come walk a few dogs or spend time with the
cats. Your valuable time will significantly improve the quality of their lives during their stay at Lucy Mac. Working with the dogs on basic obedience will help
make them more adoptable. Brushing a very frightened cat will help them become better socialized. We won't ask much of your time, just your compassion.
We do not receive any federal or state funding
We rely solely upon the generosity of the members
of our communities
Your donation will directly benefit the animals in our care
