Sick or Injured

As a citizen it is my responsibility to...

Call the Bowling Green-Warren County Humane Society to report exact location of animal.   If it is after hours, this number will provide the caller with a pager number for contacting a rescuer.  It is very helpful if the citizen can stand by or keep an eye on the animal until a responder arrives.

It is the responsibility of the city to...

The Humane Society operates an emergency rescue service 24 hours a day, seven days a week for injured, sick, and abused animals.  If it has identification, it will receive immediate veterinary care and the owner will be notified.   If it is without identification, its condition will be assessed and the animal will be treated by a veterinarian or euthanized to prevent suffering.

If I am interested, who do I contact...

Bowling Green-Warren County Humane Society, 1925 Old Louisville Rd., (270) 842-8572

Emergency Pager (for after hours emergencies only), (270) 202-9136
