La Plata County Humane Society is an open admission shelter and private 501(c)(3) non-profit serving La Plata County in Southwest Colorado. We have been proudly serving our community and pets in need since 1971

Each year, we provide shelter, protection, and care for more than 2,000 pets in need and provide low-cost services to another 2,000 owned pets. LPCHS successfully rehomes more than 90% of the animals in our care, earning LPCHS recognition as a no-kill shelter.

Since 2018, we have grown the number of pets served through our low-cost services by 97%!

Our services include: adoption, animal protection, lost & found, licensing, low-cost spay/neuter, vaccination/microchipping, and free trap-neuter-release for community cats.
