🐾 Roni: The Ultimate Good Boy Still Waiting for His Match 🐾

Roni is back in the spotlight because somehow, this incredible dog is still looking for his forever home.

This 1.5-year-old brindle coonhound mix has energy to spare, a heart full of love, and a goofy grin that lights up every room (or yard) he zooms through.

✨ Why We Love Roni:
• Friendly, outgoing, and always excited to meet new people
• Zoomies champion
• Big, goofy, joyful personality
• Perfect adventure buddy for active families
• Loves attention and thrives with human companionship

Roni is the kind of dog who makes every day brighter. He just needs someone who appreciates enthusiasm, long walks, play sessions, and a very good boy who gives life his absolute all.

If you’re ready for a loyal, lively, lovable companion, come meet Roni. He’s more than ready to meet you. 💛🐶

Meet Naomi, Nico, Noopy, and Sky—our current Mutts With Manners puppers! 🐶✨ These doggies needed a little extra help to let their inner superstars shine, so they're buddied up with carefully screened inmates for a fun six- to eight-week training adventure. The doggos hang out in the prison dorms with their handlers 🏠 and join weekly training sessions led by our awesome trainer, Cheri Carbone. 🎓🐕

With help from Cheri, our super-committed volunteers 🙌, and their totally devoted handlers, the dogs get the routine, social time, and confidence boost they need to rock life in a regular home. They soak up one-on-one attention 💛, learn new skills, and get tons of love. By graduation day, our Mutts With Manners pups are happier, better behaved, and all geared up to meet their forever family. 🥳🏡

All Mutts With Manners cuties come spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and crate trained—basically the whole starter pack! 🧡✨

🐾✨ We Need Your Help Naming Our Newest Family! ✨🐾

We have some adorable new residents settling in, and it’s time for one of our favorite times: naming!

Say hello to our newest little family:

👩‍🦳 Mama Cat – A super friendly gray/brown tabby who loves people and is already soaking up attention.
🐱 Tuxedo Female Kitten – Dapper as can be with her black-and-white coat.
🐱 Light Gray Tabby Female Kitten – Soft, sweet, and oh-so-precious.
🐱 Brown Tabby Male Kitten – Tiny stripes, big personality.

They’re estimated to be around 4 weeks old, still with Mama, and absolutely melting our hearts, and they will all be ready for adoption once they are weaned and can be vaccinated, usually around 4 more weeks from now.

Drop your cute, clever, or themed name suggestions in the comments. We can’t wait to see what the community comes up with for this beautiful little family! 💛🐾

It was a fantastic month for helping pets stay happy, healthy, and right where they belong — with their people. 🐾❤️

We provided over $1,600 in grants for emergency vet care, spay/neuter surgeries, vaccinations, and more. 💵 💉

We also shared 900+ pounds of pet food 🥫 plus plenty of leashes, collars, toys, and treats 🥎🦴 to keep those tails wagging!

None of this is pawssible without our amazing community. Every donation — big or small — helps pets and their families in Danville–Boyle County get the support they need. 🐶🐱

It takes a village… and ours is pretty incredible. 💛

Watch this space for a highlight reel, coming soon!

🐾💛 Everett: Master of the Side-Eye, Waiting for His Person 💛🐾

We tried to get some new photos of Everett today…with mixed results. Most of our shots feature him giving us a well practiced side-eye — cautious, curious, and undeniably adorable.

Everett is a 2-year-old beagle mix who is still learning that people can be safe. He’s never aggressive, only unsure, and he takes his time deciding who to trust. But once you earn that trust, we know there’s a gentle, loving heart ready to shine through.

He’s handsome, sensitive, and truly trying his best. All he needs now is someone patient and kind to help him take the next steps forward.

If you believe in quiet victories and soft beginnings, Everett could be the dog who blossoms for you. 💛🐶

Just in time to brighten your week, three absolutely adorable pups have arrived and are officially ready to meet their future families!

Welcome!

The Mission of the Danville-Boyle County Humane Society is to promote the humane treatment of companion animals through sheltering, adoptions, community education, and spay/neuter programs. The non-profit group, administered by a 12-person board, owns the Humane Society building and grounds and pays for all maintenance and improvements to the facilities. The building was built in 1978 and expanded in 2005 with a room for the cats and kittens and in 2016 the Katherine E. Nelsen Adoption Center was completed to provide modern and more humane accommodations for our dogs and puppies.

Our organization is governed by a volunteer board of directors working in cooperation with the Boyle Fiscal Court to operate the animal shelter.

The Danville-Boyle County Humane Society opened the Happy Paws Spay/Neuter Clinic in October 2007. The one-day per week clinic makes affordable surgery prices available to individuals receiving public assistance or those with low incomes. Over 1,000 surgeries are performed each year! Happy Paws is self-sustaining, receiving support from private donations and granting agencies.
