Montgomery County Spca
About
The Montgomery County SPCA is an independent nonprofit animal shelter at 1232 State Highway 5S in Amsterdam, founded in 1904. The shelter does not euthanize for space, and animals stay as long as it takes to find them a home. In 2025 it placed 295 pets, reunited 51 lost pets with their families and recorded a live release rate of 97.82 percent.
Beyond adoption, the SPCA runs low-cost spay and neuter clinics, which reached 638 publicly owned pets in 2025, along with pet food assistance and cruelty investigations. Funding comes from donations and nominal fees, and a capital campaign is under way for shelter improvements.
