Founded in 1961, the Humane Society of Weld County opened the doors to its new facility in September 1999. We are the only 501(c) 3 non-profit animal shelter in Weld County. This facility provides care and shelter to over 4,000 homeless and unwanted pets in our community each year. It is a priority of the Humane Society of Weld County to adopt out healthy and behaviorally sound animals to our caring community. Our adoption fees help to offset the cost of evaluation, housing, feeding and medical care for the thousands of animals who need our help every year. It costs the shelter about $25 per day for each animal. Most of the animals we receive are dogs or cats, but we also take-in rabbits, ferrets, and guinea pigs. Unfortunately, we cannot house injured wildlife or farm animals.
When you visit the HSWC seeking a pet to adopt, we first ask that you complete an Adoption Profile. Once you choose an animal, our kennel technicians will meet with you and the pet you have selected in one of our Get Acquainted Areas for some social time and interaction. These areas provide a quiet and private space to get to know each other better. During the visit, the kennel technician may discuss any past experiences you or a family member has had with animals, current animals you have in your home, your lifestyle with regard to work schedules and the kinds of activities you enjoy and your housing situation (rent, own, the size of your yard, etc.). The adoption of a companion animal is a commitment for life and we want to make sure the match is perfect! Once you’ve found your ideal pet, our customer service representatives will go over the animal’s history while at the shelter, including medical information. You will be asked to review and sign a contract outlining the responsibilities of pet ownership and will be given copies of paperwork you’ve signed. Adopting from an animal shelter has many benefits. Included in the adoption fee is the following: Spay or neuter surgery for cats, dogs, and rabbits; Medical examination for general good health; Preliminary vaccinations, deworming, and a rabies vaccination when age appropriate; Microchip identification implant and registration for cats and dogs; Post adoption medical exam from a participating veterinarian or through the HSWC Wellness Clinic; Free pet health insurance for 30 days. Need more time to decide if a pet is a good fit for you? No problem! Interested adopters may place an animal on hold for 24 hours for $50.00. This fee does go towards the adoption price but is non-refundable. Holds can be made in person or over the phone. In case of a “tie”, the patron physically visiting the shelter and the animal will be given priority. Payment may be made with cash or credit cards. Checks are not accepted.
