This page is dedicated to the activities of the Humane Society of the Tri-Lakes.  The shelter is located on Washboard Hollow Road, just off the downtown Reeds Spring area.  The phone number is 417-272-8113.

This shelter has a big job every day because the Humane Society operates as a "no kill" shelter, meaning that no animal is euthanized due to space or time requirements.
