    King trying to figure out why he was called star! Adoption day
    Charles R.

    Hands down the best money I ever spent in my entire life. Son story ex wife stole my dog. So I went looking and lone and behold I found my forever boy and best friend my SOUL DOG he's been beyond words the best and extremely well mannered he was feisty when I first got him and was warned he had bitten his previous owner. Well 3 years later never been bit, he was also deemed "not good with kids" he is my grandsons favorite protector, was also told he wasn't good with other dogs. Flourishes in dog parks and with his Cousin (my daughters dog) So in the end don't always believe what the paperwork says they could be scared due to the environment or their past we can't know because they don't tell us. I don't judge you for your dog don't judge my dog

    Baba Ganoush - 3 hours after adoption!
    Amy S.

    I went today to hopefully adopt one kitty, happily went home with 2! This facility was clean, comfortable, and staff was amazing! Angel helped through the entire process and made sure the adoption was a good choice and fit! These kitties are a great addition to my home and in just hours, they have acclimated and made this their home! Thank you all for what you do!!

    Vinny's first night in his new home.

    Thank you staff!!! Animals pick you instead of us picking them. Saw this dude with a collar of shame around his head. He had surgery not long ago, thinking possibly post-animal attack, thinking dog maybe? He had dried food all over his body, he wasn't visually esthetic, had a tooth pulled due to it being fractured, he didn't seem to be a ready for a family but the way he looked at me, he had me at Meow. I fell in love in about 5 seconds it took him to climb in my lap and lay down. He picked me. Got him home and that's all that it took for him to find his comfy spots. XOXOXO

    The Dumb Friends League is a fantastic organization that helps dogs, cats, small animals and horses (other location than Malone Center in Denver). They are renovating the Malone center and are following COVID protocols for adoptions and other operations. Adopting is so important for animals who deserve forever homes.

    This shelter is amazing We went in looking for a cat. Our person was Makenzie, and she talked us through which cats would and wouldn't be the right fit for us. We have a two year old and wanted to make sure we were adopting a cat that was okay. She found East (who is now named Maki) and brought her to us. It was love at first sight. We knew that within the first 60 seconds, she was ours. Maki has been with us for almost 2 weeks now, and she is the perfect addition to our family. Our two year old loves her, and vice versa. Thank you, Makenzie, and this place for introducing our missing piece

    We are absolutely in love with star shine!

    See all

The staff is incredibly thorough, but also please also be advised you will probably be there **2 HOURS** if you whole heartedly plan to seriously adopt a new family member. I've seen a lot of complaints that this shelter is short staffed, but keep in mind, many of these people are volunteers trying to help re-home animals to caring, loving owners. The wait was so worth it. We adopted our newest family member, a deaf stray, who is incredibly well behaved. The staff gave us every last detail on his health, behavior, and known history. The handlers were incredibly thoughtful when introducing us to our new pet. They also include several vaccinations, surgery, and a microchip in the adoption fees. They send you home with a list of vets that give you your first check up free (though keep in mind we still needed to add some services such as heart worm). I love Denver Animal shelter and appreciate everything they do!

    Denver Animal Protection 3.8 review is actually 2.0 at best…read more 685 Ash St Denver Co 80220 has been reported to animal control 99 times...They said that a citation would be served. This compaint is now about Denver Animal Control. They have not done ANYTHING to stop the two large dogs barking at 685 Ash St 80220. Disturbed the block again at 7:40 AM 5/2. Do what the tax payers deserve with "Denver Animal Protection". Which makes no sense what so ever. How are you "protecting" animals? DENVER TAXPAYERS PROTECTION makes sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No decent vet exam. We were pushed to spay her after having her less than 48 hours- by her foster who brought her over to our house and dragged her up and down stairs that she had never been on in her life. She is doing great now. But I have no kind words for the bully Nicole who fostered her. Our vet - when she examined her - was shocked by her condition. I am positive that others in the organization have negative feelings about Nicole but to my knowledge she is still active. Puppy mill dogs are very damaged and need enormous amounts of love and patience. Be careful who you adopt from.

    Dear MAMR, On May of…read more2018, I adopted a little puppy named (at the time) Chi Chi Cher from the Moms and Mutts Rescue in Denver, CO. She was only 11 weeks old and full of excitement and life as most puppies are. MAMR did an outstanding job fostering her before I brought her home to be with my husband and I. We have no children. I renamed her, "Annie Oakley" as she was loaded with high energy and always packed a big hug to everyone. She was put through extensive training to become a "Service Dog" for my husband, as he had a massive heart attack and stroke. "Annie" changed our lives for the better, as she loved unconditionally and gave 100 percent of her love to us and many others. I would periodically take her with me to Wal-Mart to keep her maintenance up. She would have made a great greater at Church, as it was instilled in her to go up and love on everyone she saw, especially those in the military. When given a "Q", after meeting someone in service at W-Mart, she would sit and then give the sweetest "salute" over and over again, to thank them for serving. It made their day. There were several times, people would gather around and take video of her saluting and find out later it was on facebook or twitter. Today, "Annie" turns "8" year old and we hope and pray she will be with us for many more years to brighten everyones day with her loving attitude and unconditional love towards everyone. HAPPY BIRTHDAY "ANNIE" You are so very loved and appreciated! Craig & Joy Carpenter Jacksonville, FL C:\Users\Admin\OneDrive\Desktop\Screenshot_20220504-071923_Gallery.jpg
