What an amazing place

Colorado Humane is unequivocally the best shelter in Colorado. I have been volunteering for shelters since I was 8 years old and have volunteered for most of the shelters. Colorado Humane Society works hard to save every animal. Animals truly get a second chance there. They have taken dogs in desperate need of expensive orthopedic surgery and gotten those animals the necessary surgery. I have personally been involved in saving puppies who have gotten parvo-they have performed plasma transfusions and worked round the clock for these little guys and they have saved hundreds who have gone on to be adopted and live out great lives. The reason the shelter looks so run down is that all the money truly goes to the animals. Alll of it, every cent that could otherwise make them look more attractive. And, incredibly, they practice great medicine. In addition, they give dogs and cats with behavioral problems another chance to be canine and feline good citizens. I personally have two dogs from there, Buffy and Portia, who are leading wonderful lives that they would never, never, ever have had an opportunity to lead had they gone to one of the "pretty shelters". Colorado Humane is an amazing place and I am priveleged to be a part of this fantastic organization that places the emphasis where it belongs-ON THE ANIMALS!!!
