My story

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

Regulus Black is a 5-year-old black shepherd with a striking presence and a calm, confident demeanor. He is great with other dogs, making friends easily and enjoying playtime. However, when it comes to cats, Regulus can be a bit selective—his interactions with them can be hard to read, so caution is advised. Despite this, Regulus is loyal, intelligent, and protective, making him a wonderful companion for the right home. He’s looking for a family who understands his quirks and will appreciate his steadfast nature.

More about this shelter

We are the Jefferson County Humane Society and , except for our humane officers (who are paid very nominally), we are all volunteers! Our members were instrumental in getting a local levy passed to build a new and larger shelter and the doors opened in 2011. We are currently participating in Iams Home for the Holidays Program and the Purina Pets for People grant program. We are actively pursuing other grants and recently have been asked by the county to partner with them in the operation of the new shelter. Since we are a humane society, our main focus is on getting animals spayed and neutered so there are no more homeless pets. To that end, we bring in a mobile animal surgical clinic who performs spays and neuters at a reduced rate. We are always looking for volunteers to help us in our efforts and, of course, for financial contributions (we are a non-profit, 501 (c)3) and pet adopters! Other items such as food, treats, pet carriers, cages, leashes, collars, food bowls, etc. are also ALWAYS welcomed and appreciated. Please contact us if you have an item to be donated or would like to volunteer with us to try to save some of these homeless, but very loveable, dogs!
