Bella’s Fund Bella is back from her surgery and is making a miraculous recovery! She has a metal plate and 6 screws in place to support her bone through the healing process. Bella is restricted in her activities, no playtime or stairs yet, but so far she is doing quite well in her foster home. If you are interested in adopting Bella please visit the shelter to fill out our adoption questionnaire or call Lisa Corbett at 413-447-7878 ext 39 to learn more about her recovery and what her needs may be in the future.

The Berkshire Humane Society (BHS) is a private, nonprofit, open-admission animal support organization with a twofold mission:

• to ensure the compassionate care, treatment, and whenever possible, placement of homeless animals through the shelter operation, and
• to promote and improve the welfare of all animals through community education and outreach

No companion animal is turned away from BHS, and there is no restriction on the length of time that any adoptable companion animal is allowed to remain at the shelter. Some are with us for only days before they are adopted. Others may remain at the shelter for many months before they find their forever homes.

In addition to our primary mission of sheltering animals, the BHS conducts many vital programs that benefit the people of our community, including, free educational programs for local school children, a pet-food bank for economically distressed pet owners, and assistance for The Elizabeth Freeman Center in providing abused women with a safe haven for their pets during crisis.
