The Humane Society of Harford County is 80!
Officially launched at its present location in a modified farmhouse on Connolly Road in Fallston on February 5, 1946, the shelter opened its doors with a few dozen stray dogs and cats for adoption. Under the watchful eye of its founder and benefactor, Elsa Horne Voss, the lives of hundreds of thousands of pets and people have been forever changed because of her forethought, leadership and compassion.
