Berkshire Humane Society

BHS was founded in 1992 when a small group of concerned animal lovers determined to ensure that the care of the area’s homeless pets would continue uninterrupted after the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (MSPCA) closed its Berkshire County operation. The MSPCA helped the group through an 18-month transition period. Today, BHS is an independent organization with no ties to or support from the MSPCA or any other animal support group.
