About RCHS
The Ritchie County Humane Society is located just outside of Harrisville, West Virginia. We provide sheltering for unwanted animals in our county and also provide animal control services in conjunction with local law enforcement.
​
We are an open admission shelter which means we do not turn animals away because of breed, age or medical condition. We accept owned and stray animals from Ritchie County.
Board meetings held the 2nd Tuesday of every month at the Shelter at 5:30 pm. The public is welcome to attend.
