My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hank is SO MUCH FUN!! He loves to play with his ball and doesn`t mind playing by himself. He loves a spirited game of tug-of-war and will even let you win, so you can toss it for him. Hank will make a great family dog, adventure buddy and super fun best friend! Hank is a staff favoite and has been waiting for him new home for more than 90 days.
Hank gets his own suite at LPCHS because he has been here so long and the kennel is stressful.
Hank gets office time too! He is a polite office guest and positive addition to every day.
We love Hank and we know you will too! Come meet Hank today.
You can help Hank find a home for the holidays by sharing him on social media and sharing him with friends and family.

More about this shelter

La Plata County Humane Society was established as a 501(c) 3 animal shelter in 1971. The humane society was created to provide shelter for homeless animals, rescue animals in distress, assist in the investigation and prosecution of reported cruelty and abuse, find homes for unwanted animals, and encourage kindness and responsibility toward all living things through humane education.

The Thrift Store was established in 1990 to raise monies for the homeless animals. They sell gently-used goods donated by our community. We accept donations 7 days a week through our on-site drive through donation center. The Thrift Store helps to support other local non-profits in the community by donating clothing, toiletries and vouchers to the Volunteers of America (VOA), La Plata Family Coalition, the Women’s Resource Center and many other non-profits.

The Shelter & Thrift Store are directed by nine elected board members. In 2000, a veterinarian was added to our staff to insure that all animals have a health and wellness check, are spayed or neutered, provided initial vaccines, implanted with a identification microchip and have the best quality care before leaving our facility. We are committed to helping animals become their best selves before they are adopted into forever homes.

Help Us, Help Them, One Paw at a Time.
