Welcome to the website of the James A. Brennan Memorial Humane Society 

URGENT PLEA FOR HELP Late last night, (May 29) in conjunction with the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office, our shelter stepped in to assist with a heartbreaking cruelty case involving the removal of 27 dogs from a local home. These animals have endured conditions that no dog should ever have to experience, and they now need our community more than ever. Of the 27 dogs removed, JABMHS has taken in 16, placing a tremendous strain on our shelter’s resources, staff, and budget. We are grateful that the Fulton County Regional SPCA and Ayres Memorial Animal Shelter have also stepped forward to assist with this case and provide care for the remaining animals. Our staff and volunteers are working around the clock to provide these dogs with the care, comfort, and medical attention they desperately need. They will require veterinary care, lots of TLC and rehabilitation before they can begin their journey toward a better life. We are urgently in need of: Small breed dry dog food Canned dog food Blankets and bedding Paper towels Bleach and cleaning supplies Monetary donations to help cover the enormous veterinary expenses that lie ahead Every donation, no matter the size, will make a direct difference for these dogs and the many other animals already in our care. Please note: The shelter will be closed to the public through the weekend. This temporary closure will allow our team to focus on properly assessing, treating, and caring for these dogs while continuing to provide quality care to all of the animals currently at the shelter. Donations can still be dropped off at the shelter during this time, even while we are closed to the public. While these dogs have a long road ahead of them, our hope is that once they have been medically cleared, rehabilitated, and deemed ready for adoption, they will each find the loving forever homes they deserve. We know our community has a big heart, and when that time comes, we will be looking for adopters willing to give these dogs the second chance they’ve never had. We know we ask a lot of our supporters, but time and time again this community has shown incredible compassion when animals need it most. Today, we are asking for your help once again. Together, we can change the future for these dogs. Donations can be dropped off or shipped to: James A. Brennan Memorial Humane Society 437 Nine Mile Tree Road Gloversville, NY 12078 We also have a PayPal account: jabmhs@yahoo.com From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with us and for being the reason animals like these have hope.

SUPPLIES NEEDED Our animals are counting on us… and we are counting on YOU. The less glamorous side of rescue is also one of the most important. Every single day we are doing endless loads of laundry, scrubbing floors, cleaning kennels, and changing litter boxes to keep the animals in our care safe, healthy, and comfortable. Right now we are urgently in need of: Liquid laundry detergent Dryer sheets Non-clumping clay kitty litter (any brand) Floor cleaners like Fabuloso, Mr. Clean, and Lysol These supplies disappear FAST, and without the support of our amazing community, we simply could not continue doing what we do. No donation is too small. A single container of litter, a bottle of cleaner, or a box of dryer sheets truly helps more than you know. Your generosity keeps tails wagging, kennels clean, and animals cared for while they wait for their forever homes. Shipping Address: 437 Nine Mile Tree Rd. Gloversville, NY 12078 As always, thank you for standing beside us and supporting the animals who need us most. We are endlessly grateful for this community.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: WE ARE UNDER ACTIVE CONSTRUCTION Mandate Compliance • Reduced Capacity • Safety Reminder As many of you know, new NYS mandates are affecting every shelter and rescue across the state. In order to comply, we are currently undergoing major construction to update and restructure our kennel spaces. While we are excited for these improvements, these mandates also bring big challenges—including changes to our daily operations and capacity to house dogs. Effective Immediately: We are unable to accept any additional dogs while construction is underway. After construction is completed, our dog housing capacity will be significantly reduced to meet mandated requirements. We understand how difficult this is for our community, and we want to assure you that we are doing everything possible to continue serving the animals who need us while also complying with state regulations. Safety & Parking During Construction Our small parking lot will be very busy with construction vehicles and personnel during this process. Please use extra caution and patience when visiting the shelter. Parking in the grass at the bottom of our driveway is available as an alternative option. Patience, Understanding & Support Needed These mandates create a major adjustment for our staff, volunteers, and—most importantly—our animals. With patience, kindness, and support from our community, we hope to navigate this transition as smoothly as possible and continue providing safe, compassionate care. Thank you for standing by us during this challenging time. Your support truly means everything to the animals and the people who love them.
