Humane Society of Boulder Valley

Our Mission

It is the mission of the Humane Society of Boulder Valley to protect and enhance the lives of companion animals by promoting healthy relationships between pets and people. We are dedicated to creating a community where every animal receives the care, compassion, and companionship they deserve.

A Legacy of Compassion

Founded in 1902, we are proud to be the longest-serving, continuously operating humane society in Colorado. For over 120 years, we have been a trusted resource for pet health, safety, and happiness, evolving to meet the changing needs of animals and guardians throughout the Boulder and Broomfield regions.

Our Commitment to Care

As an open-admission, socially conscious shelter, we provide care to any animal that comes to our facility. We ensure every pet has a safe place to go by assessing their medical and behavioral needs on an individual basis, ensuring that every healthy and safe animal finds a loving home. We utilize science-based, positive reinforcement training techniques to support our animals, ensuring they are well-prepared for their future families.

Your Partner in Adoption

Adoption is a beautiful journey, and we are here to ensure you find the perfect companion for your life. By fostering transparent, ethical, and collaborative relationships, we help match your unique needs with the personality and history of our animals. We believe that when you adopt, you are building a lasting, healthy relationship that enriches your life and provides a second chance for a deserving pet.
