Helping You Keep Your Pet
Unfortunately, despite loving their animals, people or families in crisis often feel they must resort to surrendering their pets because they don’t know where to turn for temporary assistance with pet food, medical, or behavior services. But surrendering your pet should be a last resort… let us help you!
The Humane Society of Pagosa Springs (HSPS) is focused on keeping pets in their current home if there is a solution to do so.
