The Humane Society of Fremont County has been dedicated to ending animal homelessness and providing care and comfort for companion animals in need. Our adoption programs, affordable veterinary services, community outreach efforts and volunteer opportunities are essential to the health and well-being of every animal across Fremont and Custer County, Colorado.

Our mission is to provide humane care for stray and surrendered animals by offering refuge, providing medical care, and facilitating an adoptive home. Only 19% of our budget is municipally funded, so the other 81% comes from donations, grants, bequests and fundraising events to further our mission of caring for the neglected and abandoned pets of Fremont and Custer County, Colorado.

Open-Admission Shelter

As a proud open-admission shelter, the pets of Humane Society of Fremont County remain in our care until they find their forever home. The Humane Society of Fremont County understands that people in Fremont & Custer County, Colorado may struggle financially from time to time and so we offer:

Our slogan, "Where Every Life Matters" could not more accurate. Every last life truly matters to us all.

One of their wonderful dogs rescued me. She was there for a long time and she got so much love and training. She came out of there a super dog. I know it was due to all the love she got there from the staff. My new dog will be a life long friend and she comes with a whole pack of people too. The crew at this shelter will have you wagging your tail for sure.

Humane Society of Fremont County is an outstanding animal shelter that cares deeply about the animals they receive. We were fortunate enough to be able to provide a kitty a new forever home. The staff were professional at all times and and are very careful to make sure animals are going to a suitable environment. The facility is kept really clean and comfortable to be in. The procedures to adopt an animal are very clear and easy to follow. We are very happy with our experience!
