I made the drive from Colorado Springs because I was interested in a little kitten. I was so happy to see he was still available once I got there and I adopted him right away. The guy who helped me was so helpful and kind, he walked me through the process and answered every question I had. They offer military discount and also give a bag of food to take home and a voucher for a free visit in one of the vet clinics around town. I just had a great experience and I can't wait to see this little kitten grow with me.

The sweetest staff when I adopted my fur baby kitty. The lady Sam who introduced us to "Frankie" was not only kind to us but showed loving kindness to the animals as well. Also the gentleman behind the counter the day we picked her up who's name I did not get. 😢 He had a long cool beard like my husband and was so sweet to us when we came in all frazzled from traffic and the long drive.We could not be more grateful to your wonderful staff for helping us with our new addition to the family who we have renamed (LeeLuu Grace)

We have adopted 2 pups from this facility. Our latest is "Wolf" (known to the shelter as Fabonacci. We got him 10 days ago. Zach, you were so helpful and supportive through the adoption process. I forgot to get your email to send you updates. The ladies I spoke with on the phone, Christina and Amanda, were so sweet and answered all my questions. We cannot thank yall enough. Wolf and Mattis get along great. He fits right in with our pack family. Wolf is loving farm life. Adopt dont shop! Rescues are amazing! 🖤

Called a week ago about three dogs without tags, continuously breeding. I am calling once again because nothing has been done. I don’t think anyone calling with concerns about abused and or neglected animals should have to wait on hold for over 25 minutes. Is there not enough funding? This should be brought attention too? Update: 2205 still has pit bulls running around. They bring more over for breading. I see you all make contact but I believe your officers are too scared to take action.

They don't bath the animals and want to charge you what a purebred puppy costs no wonder why they are so full of animals. $450 for a mixed puppy?! When we just got a purebred for $500 and that included shots, being fixed and it was clean lol do they euthanize them after having them for so long? Do they get some sorta kick back for euthanizing? Why is the cost so high? Why don’t the animals get bathed?

The folks here truly care for animals. I have surrendered 2 cats and a kitten that were dumped. Morris, the last rescue was adopted in less than two days. We gave him a resume and a box to take filled with food, treats, toys, and a blanket. His new family had pictures and a short story as we knew it. I hope he found a good forever home. He wanted a home, he slept in bed with us, held on the sofa watching tv.I would have kept him but adopted 2 kittens just a month before he came along.

We just adopted 2 kittens from here. It's a much smaller facility than the one in colorado springs, but I think that's why I like it better. It was clean and well taken care of. The lady at the front desk was very helpful and nice.

My wife and I were doing a house clean out and the gentleman who owns the home is in very bad health, he also had 13 cats we really didn't know what to do and he wasn't going to be able to take them when he moved. We reached out to the Humane Society and they were absolute Angels they took the cats in said they would all get fixed and get their shots. I have a great respect for these people their Kindness and Love ofAnimals deeply touched our Hearts. Thank You to all the Staff for showing so much compassion and care without your help we really don't know what would have happened to these fur babies but at least now they have a chance.

Front desk lady was very rude. I went in to adopt a dog and found one I liked and was told that the dog was put on hold for me. I arrived an hour later with my boyfriend and saw the dog was being visited. We visited the dog again and then went to the front to adopt and was told she was already being adopted. Heartbreaking experience. I hope nobody has to go through this.

Staff is professional and facility is clean. They got Dingo up to date on his shots and neutered him so that I could adopt him.

I recently visited the humane society with my boyfriend to surrender some animals, and I must say, I was highly disappointed with the service we received. The representative we dealt with seemed completely unsure of what she was doing, and the rest of the staff appeared equally lost. It’s disheartening to see such a decline in professionalism, especially considering that there used to be three excellent representatives who were knowledgeable and efficient. It seems that all the good employees are gone now, and the overall atmosphere is unprofessional. Additionally, the wait time was ridiculous. I urge the Human Society to invest more in training their staff to provide better service to customers and animals.

Tried to bring in a stray for drop off got there at 4:59 doors already locked even after me calling to let them know I would be there at 5 and being told they would still accept the stray. I watched 4 different employees make eye contact with me and ignore me while still helping another customer inside. I had to call animal law enforcement to ask them to call their employees to actually help the stay animal. Horrible care from the 4 employees working. Your job is to take care of and protect lost stray animals but refused to take one in because it was past your "working hours" as I was told from the man that finally came out rudely to take the dog in from me. Very sad that people who are supposed to care about the animals don't care enough to take 5 minutes to take the dog in because it's past their business time. Lazy and careless.

I had an amazing experience adopting here but today I had an icky interaction with a staff member named Nicole. she definitely gave the vibe that I and a few others in the lobby had inconvenienced her night by coming in when we could. to be fair it was about 10mins before they close but the hours here are the same as any other regular 9-5 job. I'm happy to have made it in at all so the lost cat I found had a warm place to be for the week and a few meals to fill her tummy. I just don't appreciate how she just HAD to express the disdain she has for her job and felt okay talking to people the way she did. her attitude was completely unnecessary and didn't do anyone any favors.

I just got back from the pueblo adoption center and was refused an adoption due to having cats. I believe her name was Jess, but I came in after serious consideration online to adopt a dog named Harley with money in hand.The visit went amazing, and Harley's temperament was very calm. I don't worry about my cats, as they've been around prey driven animals often. I was not asked about my cats, I was only immediately denied and offered one pitbull to look at out of the entire shelter.I would hope learning that your employee does not allow willing, workable adoptions and instead would prefer an animal to remain in a shelter environment longer would be concerning. I was basically disqualified from ALL DOGS in the shelter over having well trained cats.Mind you, I have a 2500 square foot house with a large, fenced yard. I drive a 2019 Dodge Durango, I make 6500.00 a month and have at least one adult home at all times. I do not understand at all why I couldn't pay your shelter to take home a dog other than ONE pitbull.

Second time in 3 years calling after finding a loose dog in what could be a dangerous situation. Both times on a weekend, both times under an hour response time. This last one took less than 30 minutes to pickup.In both cases the staff were quick, caring, and professional!

If I can give a ----0000 reviews If i would. I have adopted 2 dogs in the last 2 yrs and the same incompetent, unknowledged disrespectful people I've had to deal with. No knowledge on either one of the dogs Ive adopted. They do not do a thorough exam to determine the health of the pup. I had one that was so immeaciated and her teeth were so were so bad that they didn't tell us. And the other one they made us go to Springs to do dental care. Why is it that they are so quick to get ride of the animals but not willing to put the effort to Caring for them. They should be shutdown for neglect and and abuseO

They have a wonderful facility for adoption and vet care. They also have an amazing feral cat program. I appreciate all their help and information. I got these cuties spayed and neutered. The humane society provided all the cages and care. A great program. Always spay and neuter your pets.

We recently adopted a cat from here, staff was very friendly, animals appeared to be well taken care of. We were told cat was shy, 5 minutes after we got her home we discovered not only was she not shy, but a very energetic animal that is very loving and an excellent 3am zoom machine. We absolutely adore little ginger, and are very happy with our decision to adopt her. Huge thanks to the entire facility and staff that helped us. Great things being done for these animals.

All of these dogs where put down in the month of August 2018 by Pueblo Animal Shelter. All of them but 6 where put down because of behavior issues. The other 6 where medical. Take a look at the very last dog I posted. I posted him twice. Look at his smile and his tale wag during his intake photo. Less then two weeks later he was dead. "behavioral"

These people really do care about animals. We fostered a kitten to young adulthood but couldn't afford her, so we took her to the HSPPR and she was adopted in only 5 days. I hated to lose her, but was so elated when she was adopted.
