Touching the lives of more than 143,000 companion animals since opening its doors.

MORE LOVE PER PAW

Pups and kitties can’t choose where they are born; we go where the need is greatest. Help us transform the lives of animals most in need of your love.

LOVE IS OUR OVERHEAD

We manage a city-owned shelter, which means very little overhead. 91% of your gift goes directly to animal care. Our focus is quality staff and service, doing the most to love every animal every day. We’re proud to have earned a reputation for providing consistent, humane care and healthy, successful adoptions, along with innovative, effective ‘get-‘er-done’ programs.

  • Low-Cost Vaccinations – every Tuesday 9am to 1pm

  • Free Spay/Neuter – call (505) 753-0228 for an appointment

  • 143,000+ animals helped – our commitment to saving

For the staff and volunteers at Española Humane, our work isn’t merely a job, but our responsibility as humans. We’ve been able to attract the best and the brightest talent in shelter work today, because of our shared commitment to animal welfare.

WHO WE ARE

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to improve the lives of animals in underserved communities.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Española Humane serves Española, northern Santa Fe County, Rio Arriba County, and the pueblos of Ohkay Owingeh, San Ildefonso and Santa Clara. In these communities, too many unwanted animals are born and too few are adopted.Española Humane proactively reaches out to area residents and offers free spay/neuter surgeries and free vaccinations, which results in 4,800 surgeries and over 13,000 vaccinations every year. The goal is to reduce the number of unwanted animals and create a healthier community for pets, their families and their neighbors.

Española Humane also manages a municipal shelter that receives 2,700 animals each year. The shelter welcomes every animal, including the very elderly, ill, aggressive or injured. Many animals are not able to be rehomed but Española Humane proudly adopts out 84% of these at-risk pets.

OUR COMMITMENT

Puppies and kitties can’t choose where they are born. We go where the need is greatest. Help us transform the lives of animals most in need of your love.
