    I'm reading the previous reviews from others and indeed there are a few things from each 1 star review that the facility itself could improve on but to be honest it's never a 1 star. My family and I very much love our humane society! My daughters and I visit 3-4 times a month and check out the cutie pies that are looking for forever families! I even had my pup vaccinated there. However they did inform me if I choose to not neuter my dog that they wouldn't see my dog in the future. I was a little upset about that but can also respect their side and of not wanting MORE animals that have the possibility of being in the same situation ALL the current animals are in and hoping for a home. The hours Monday through Friday are 12-6 and Saturday & Sunday 11-6. When you first walk in the front desk is directly in front of you. The pups are on your left hand side and the kitties are on the right! Either way you decide there will be special eyes balls watching you! I always start to my left. I grew up in Longmont and the old building which is the current building, grew a lot. I like the old way were it was just a fence between the human and animal but no there is a gap and glass. I can't say how the dogs feel but I almost think they would be more calm if they could smell the people looking to love them. So if your looking for a great Christmas or birthday present, visit the Humane Society and you might fall in love with your new best friend!

I learned from a past PetSmart groomer that the dogs spend most of their times in cages, especially the scared ones. Whenever my dog got anxious or reactive, she was put in a cage. This is completely unfair because she is anxious- that doesn't mean she shouldn't get the same care as "typical" dogs. My dog would leave exhausted and seemingly depressed the rest of the day after I picked her up. Lastly, for all the appointments she had there, they were charging me with a "special needs care fee" without telling me or allowing me to see the receipt. This was an extra $15 or $20 that I did not know about. The groomer (a non-licensed veterinary professional) told me my dog needs stronger medication if she's going to keep coming there. My dog now does mobile grooming where she is never in a cage, is treated normally and leaves in a good mood. I do not recommend this grooming place at all. If you love your dog, find someplace else.

Upon arrival the groomer put their leash around his neck and started choking my perfectly still dog I thought he was just coughing at first until I grabbed the leash around his neck and had to yank him free while still in her hand. Again my dog is very well trained and while he was being choked he was not moving at all that should have been my first red flag to take him and leave . The groomer was Kaylina H

I've also found the reservation system, and the drop-off and pick-up, to be super easy. In addition to daycare services, Oscar gets regular grooming and he always smells so good when he comes home! :) We've had him in for boarding twice, and it also went well. Mostly it gave me peace of mind knowing he'd be well taken care of by people who care about him. When the facility moved this spring, I wasn't sure we'd continue. But it's such a welcoming and familiar place for Oscar, it's been worth the drive so far. And the new building is huge and looks great. I can't wait until they allow us in to see the new digs!

The staff is wonderful, caring,loves dogs, diligent. My dog Peyton came to us as an adult rescue and had some issues. HH willingly accepted him -- he cannot be in the general dog population, and they have a program just for that! Enrichment: He plays and trains with people all day. He can't wait to go when it's daycare time.He loves it and all the staff. Makes it so much easier to board him too knowing he is getting the best care and having a good time. HH sends you a report card during boarding with pics and how things are going. I can't thank HH enough for all they have done for us. They are the BEST.

The staff is pleasant and the volunteers are informative. We had a lovely walk. I like the rubber-like surface that has been added to the walkway. They are always improving. We saw many animals out enjoying the early morning breeze before the heat of the day. By the time we got back to our vehicle it was getting quite warm. Always a great experience.

Many of the animals were active until around 10:30/11 when the temperature warmed up. Right out of the welcome center, we saw 2 of their jaguars (which we were told are usually pretty elusive), some foxes, bobcats, bears, and to our happy surprise, a cheetah. It came out of the shade in the back of its habitat and approached the fence close to the walkway because an employee was driving by. It sat there for awhile until the employee drove off, so we were able to get lots of pictures. My son LOVES cheetahs, so this was definitely a highlight for us. Of course, when we mentioned it to not 1, but 2 employees/volunteers, they both said that that sanctuary location doesn't have any cheetahs. I showed them the pictures and they stated that it was a leopard. While they certainly do have a leopard (which we also saw), this was indeed a cheetah. So, my 1 suggestion to the sanctuary is to educate the staff on the animals there. Aside from that, we also saw wolves, lions, tigers, and camels. Be prepared to walk the 3 miles round trip. Bring lots of water and snacks (they have bathrooms and shaded rest stops along the way). Bring binoculars (or rent theirs for $10 like we did)--the sanctuary is expansive, far beyond what's next to the walkway. And take your time! We told our littles that the animals were playing hide and seek. It is a worthwhile experience!

I brought my dog, Lupo, there during a medical emergency while we were traveling from North Carolina, and what followed was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. We were already in a state of panic, far from home, trying to make the best decisions we could. Despite that, there was a profound lack of communication, compassion, and transparency throughout his care. We were never offered the option to stay in any rooms, just to rest for a little. Being 45 minutes away while our dog was critically ill created unnecessary distance during the most important moments of his life. The most devastating part is that we were only contacted when things had already taken a severe turn, and that call was not a supportive update, but a frantic, high-pressure conversation where I felt like I was being almost yelled at that he needed to be euthanized immediately. There was no sense of guidance, no compassion just urgency without support. We were not called earlier as he declined, and we were not given a real opportunity to come and be with him in time. Because of this, I lost the chance to have any meaningful final moments with my dog. By the time we were involved, he had been intubated. That was not what I wanted unless it was absolutely necessary as a life-saving measure, and it ultimately robbed me of being able to hold him, comfort him, or say goodbye in a way that had any meaning. That is something I will carry with me forever. When we last saw him, he was placed all the way at the bottom of a cage. It felt impersonal and distressing given how critical his condition was. There was no sense that comfort or dignity in his final moments was being prioritized. To make matters worse, a necropsy (autopsy) was performed without our explicit consent. This was incredibly upsetting and felt like a violation during an already devastating time. The lack of clear communication and consent around something so significant is completely unacceptable. After his passing, the handling of his remains and the lack of communication continued to cause harm. Because of delays and inability to reach anyone, his body was not released to the memorial service we had chosen in time for us to receive his ashes before our flight home. We were forced to extend our stay, rebook flights, and incur additional expenses... all while grieving the loss of our baby. I understand this is a teaching hospital and that not every case has a positive outcome. But communication, compassion, and respect for both the patient and their family should never be optional. At no point did I feel supported, informed, or prioritized as his owner. Lupo was my world. He deserved better. And no family should have to go through what we experienced here. There was no compassion in here. There was only a severe urgency to give us a large bill.
