We would appreciate it if you took the time to nominate someone in need and share this message with your friends and family so we can support a charity in our local community.
BARCS is an open-admission shelter, meaning we accept and care for all animals in need regardless of health, history of abuse or neglect, age or temperament. This includes dogs, cats and small companions pets, along with farm animals, wildlife and exotic animals. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, BARCS fills the role of animal sheltering and care for Baltimore City. We are an essential service to our city, operating as a safe haven and community resource 365 days a year—every year since 2005. We uphold this unwavering commitment to the animals we serve through private donations from our community and beyond.
BARCS is a large organization with many programs and pieces that make up the greater puzzle of saving lives.
We rely on private donations in order to do what we are best at: giving each and every individual animal what they need—no matter how simple or complex—to get the second chance they deserve.
The Maryland SPCA is a critical lifeline for pets who deserve a second chance. There is no limit to how long an animal stays in our care.
Our story begins four years after the American Civil War when we fought to protect the city’s workhorses from exhaustion and abuse.
Since then, we’ve grown and evolved to serve a much greater need: improving the lives of our community’s pets and people.
Today, we operate out of a small campus in the heart of Baltimore. But our impact reaches communities across the state where pets and people most need us.
Sharing our knowledge and experience, we empower and encourage communities to treat animals with compassion and respect.
Providing a safety net to those in need, we save the lives of vulnerable cats and dogs while connecting people and pets through innovative and targeted services.
