Greater Birmingham Humane Society - Acc Birmingham

About

Since January 2015, the Greater Birmingham Humane Society's division of Animal Care & Control has provided animal control services to Jefferson County and its municipalities. In the first year, the GBHS took in more than 18,000 homeless, neglected and abused animals. Our organization regulates uncontrolled domestic animals, assist with bites and attacks by aggressive animals (depending on jurisdiction), investigate reports of possible animal cruelty and neglect, pick up stray animals, pick up confined strays, pick up loose animals without proper rabies identification, rescue injured animals, keep records of lost/found cats and dogs, give animal information and referrals, and promote responsible pet ownership through education. At GBHS intake, every animal receives full vaccinations, flea and tick treatment and a veterinary assessment. If intake is after hours and a veterinarian is needed, GBHS has 24/7 veterinarian coverage. After intake, the animals are subject to a state-mandated 7-day stray hold, and after that period, animals are transferred to the GBHS adoption facility for a chance to find their forever home.
