Testimonials


"Eight years ago, I adopted my dog from you...he lived a wonderful life filled with love, joy, and adventure. I just want to thank you for the incredible work y’all do. Because of your team's care and dedication, Ocoee was able to find his forever home with me, and together we shared so many happy trails and years together. His life is a testament to the impact y'all make every single day- and I cannot thank y'all enough!"

"When we adopted Meatball a little over a year ago, he was an extremely fearful, middle-aged hamster who'd been at HSBV for over 3 months. But I'm happy to report that 'fearful' is now the last word I'd use to describe him.... He's quite the picky eater but is definitely spoiled with the amount of different treats get for him to try. My now-senior guy is living out the rest of his life feeling safe and loved."

"Thank you for participating in out-of-state transfers. I adopted my Great Pyrenees mix from HSBV before Xmas.... She was severely underweight, had skin problems and tested positive for heartworm - among other issues. I have the sweetest dog who is finally healthy and happy thanks to HSBV and others. You saved my dog's life and enriched the life of my family - especially during the pandemic. Thank you for all your work!" 

Giving Activity

Mission

Humane Society of Boulder Valley's mission is to protect and enhance the lives of companion animals by promoting healthy relationships between pets and people.

Background Statement

The Humane Society of Boulder Valley (HSBV) was formed in 1902 by a small group of spirited Boulder citizens, as an open-admission, socially conscious shelter.

We believe every animal deserves compassionate care and the chance for the best possible outcome. We never turn away animals in need, and we provide individualized medical, behavioral, and shelter support to help them thrive. By working together with our community and partners, we make thoughtful, ethical decisions that prioritize animal welfare, public safety, and transparency.

Each year HSBV serves more than 20,000 animals through adoptions, animal transfers, veterinary services, behavior care and Safety Net services.
