 Best friends seeking home
with cat and dog lover
On a warm day in July, two best friends were found in a Denver-area park. Despite weeks on the streets, Jessie—a 2-year-old short-haired calico—and Molly—a 7-year-old beagle/pug mix—never left each other’s side. The kind resident, who found the homeless pair together, brought both Jessie and Molly to the Dumb Friends League so they could receive shelter, food and care...and, ultimately, find a new home together.

 Temporary homes needed
Currently, there are more than 1,000 animals at our two shelters and we need temporary foster homes for some of them. An animal may need a foster home for a variety of reasons including age, illness, injuries, and socialization, or to help provide needed space at the shelter for incoming animals. Bogart (pictured) is a current example of a pet needing a foster home. He just had his leg amputated and needs to recover for about two weeks before going up for adoption. Apply today to become a foster parent. |
Dogs seized from filthy conditions
looking for better life
Sixty dogs were removed from filthy, cramped conditions at the Eastern Montana Humane Society last week, and now 15 of those canines are in our care. As of today, one is available for adoption, and the others will be placed up for adoption after they receive proper medical care and socialization. Read more > |
 Serendipitous happy tail
In November 2009, I adopted a kitten named Dolce from your Quebec Street shelter. I had been in the day before with a friend who also adopted a kitten. We went back the next day to pick him up from surgery, and I saw little Dolce and fell in love. It was her first day at the shelter after being released from a foster home. So glad I went back!
