Our Mission

Working with our compassionate community, we will end pet homelessness and animal suffering.

About Us

For 115 years, Humane Colorado, formerly the Dumb Friends League has been working to end pet homelessness and animal suffering by providing a strong and steadfast voice for those who cannot speak for themselves. As the largest community-based animal welfare organization in the region, we care for more than 21,000 homeless pets and horses each year.

Humane Colorado is the only animal champion with unmatched expertise who provides compassionate care through the most comprehensive, direct services for any pet in Colorado who is vulnerable to homelessness, suffering and abuse because every pet in our community deserves to be nurtured, safe and cherished. We will work together in a united coalition to promote socially conscious sheltering to create the best outcomes for all animals, promote safe communities and nurture the human-animal bond.

Humane Colorado has five facilities, including:
• Two shelters for homeless pets that offer adoptions, pet admissions, lost-and-found services and humane education classes for the public:
     The Leslie A. Malone Center in Denver
     The Buddy Center in Castle Rock
• The Harmony Equine Center, a private rehabilitation and adoption center for equine victims of mistreatment, as well as horses that come from partner humane societies and rescue groups to receive professional training and opportunities for new lives.
• Veterinary Hospital at CSU Spur, a full-service animal hospital for owned pets to prevent and alleviate suffering in pets whose caretakers would otherwise be unable to provide this medical care.
