Paws weekend a success

Our thanks to Scott Grant, owner of Paws Antiques & Collectibles who hosted his first APPRAISAL WEEKEND at his wonderful store down on Endicott Street, Weirs, Laconia.

Many folks were able to find out what their special treasures were actually worth, and the proceeds, over $500, were gifted to the animals at New Hampshire Humane Society.

Our special thanks to Kyle Husfloen, appraiser, and to the hard working volutneers who ensured smooth running of the event.. Morgan, Jeanne, Mary, Jessica and Ann. 

We hope for an equally exciting event next August!




A very special benefactor - thank you Leo Sandy

While many folks say they care about the welfare of animals - some walk the walk, and talk the talk. 

A gentleman that arrives weekly at New Hampshire Humane Society with a shopping cart full of items is Leo Sandy, well know columnist and peace activist. It stands to reason he means what he says, and god bless him for helping so many of the creatures who live here, until adoption day. 

Some of you may know that cats  spend on average 5 months before adoption, some remain much, much longer. (Sasha, recently adopted, was here for over one year!) Dogs, mostly find new homes relatively quickly, although with a pinching economy we have more surrendered than adopted on any given day. Still and all, dogs live at NHHS for just a few weeks.  Leo’s kindness is appreciated more than we can ever convey, but all the staff know him well, his stewardship is something we never take for granted. 

For the creatutre

“Thank you Leo!”

Thank you to Burlwood Antiques Center

Thank you to Burlwood Antiques Center and the NHHS Volunteers that made this event such a HUGH success.  Together they raised $3000 for the care of the animals at NH Humane Society. 

Hats off to Mary!

Don’t forget that June is Adopt a Shelter Cat Month.  Feel free to stop by and visit with our furry four-legged friends…you might just find a keeper!




Cram the Van at Tilton Tractor Supply Company

In honor of PET APPRECIATION DAY at TRACTOR SUPPLY COMPANY, NHHS was invited to participate in a day geared towards animal care. Our volunteer, Jeanne, pictured with two young TS Customers “John and Grace” who visited with Lexi & Shorty.  Bobbi, another volunteer was highly successful in convincing may folks to purchase items from the store and donating to NHHS, most notably some of her personal contacts (Jane Alden from Atkinson) who made sure we could purchase the power washer after Tractor Supply reduced the price an additional $50, before we returned to the shelter that afternoon. And no, we won’t be using the pressure washer for dog grooming, rather it will ensure we can keep our outdoor runs sparkling clean, and those precious paws happy!

Lexi & Shorty are still available for adoption!

Special Thanks to TRACTOR SUPPLY COMPANY!

Happy Birthday!

From your furry friends at NH Humane Society.
