Giving Pets a Happy Life
Ramona Humane Society was established in 1969 by a group of passionate women who wanted to do more about abandoned and neglected animals. The organization was led by sisters Maudie Altick and Dorothy Berg, who incorporated and opened an animal shelter in their birthplace in California.
Later on, our clinic moved to where the Animal Medical Center is currently located. In 1992, we built and opened our current shelter at 690 Humane Way in San Jacinto.

Our Statistics
We feel that transparency is a significant part of being a contracted agency. We want to make our communities realize the realities of a shelter. We want to empower citizens by helping them know how they can make a positive impact by increasing animal adoption and decreasing euthanasia.
