Allen County SPCA

Allen County SPCA

Fort Wayne, IN

A nonprofit SPCA on South Hanna Street in Fort Wayne, taking in homeless cats and dogs and placing them in adoptive homes across Allen County. The Allen County SPCA joined with H.O.P.E. for Animals and the combined organization now operates as Humane Fort Wayne, running this shelter alongside a veterinary clinic. The SPCA name is still widely used locally and by adopters searching online, which is why the listing is kept under it.

Hours Tue-Fri 11am-6pm; Sat-Sun 12pm-4pm; closed Monday. Last showing of available pets is 30 minutes before closing.
