Harper still needs a forever home…

When Intermountain Humane Society closed the doors on its Pine facility last month, all the pets it sheltered had found homes but one. Harper, a six-year-old female hound mix, is still looking for her forever owner. In addition to being sweet, smart and undeniably cute, Harper has her own fan club.....

Soli is the ultimate cuddle machine and is ready to be your new best friend! This sweet, squishy 5 year old dog adores everyone he meets—seriously, he’s a people-loving pro. Soli is in a foster home as the shelter at it’s current location is closed. He is living with kids and another dog-something he has no experience with. The activity level in the home is a bit much for him and we are seeking a more mellow environment where he doesn’t feel the need to resource guard everything. It’s hard to blame him. He’s never had a home where he was a priority. Abandoned twice, and the last folks left a note extolling his virtues so much, we were confused as how they could let him go. $$ That was the answer. It has become more expensive to care for a pet. Food. Veterinary care. Boarding or pet sitters…all of it costs more. They had a new baby on the way and that was their solution to save $ and Soli was the sacrifice.
Soli’s got soulful eyes that could melt an iceberg and a tiny nubbin of a tail that wags so hard, his whole body wiggles like Jell-O on a trampoline. His favorite things in life? It’s a toss-up between belly rubs and car rides. Seriously, this guy is the perfect passenger—he’s got road-trip buddy written all over him. When things gets a little too much, a quick ride in the car is all it takes to bring his happy tail back to full wag mode.
If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, wiggle-powered bundle of joy, Soli’s your guy. Adopt him today and prepare for endless love, laughs, and wiggly tail wags! Soli’s adoption fee has been sponsored, so all he needs is a loving home! Please email [email protected] for more information about Soli man.
Please share ❤️🐾

UPDATE-

Thank you to everyone who has offered to foster these puppies and to those who have dropped off donations. This greatly helps us and these poor dogs. The dogs will be transferred to Summit County Animal Shelter, and they will be available for adoption, hopefully by the end of the month.

Park County Animal Control is stepping up for animals in desperate need, and they could use your help! Recently they responded to a property in Hartsel where 6 puppies and 2 adult Great Pyrenees were surrendered. The dogs had no food, water or shelter, and one pup was in need of urgent medical attention. That pup is now at Planned Pethood receiving care.

Animal Control is covering the cost of care for these animals, but rely on community support to ensure each one gets a chance at a better life. If you'd like to help, consider making a donation. Every little bit helps provide food, medical care, and warmth for these animals in need!

To donate, please call 719-836-4380. Thank you for helping us make a difference in these young lives!

How it started vs. how it’s going. Funded by the generous donations of many Harper fans, she started her 6 week board and train with yesterday. Harper has been at the shelter almost a year and another shelter before that. We weren’t ready to give up on her. Max will be working on her basic obedience to build a foundation for hopefully resolving some of her fear of men and strangers. She is available for adoption while in training and will come with free follow up training sessions. Stay tuned for more Harper updates and fill out an app at imhs.org if you are interested in adopting.

Update! We had a trap donated and will be lending it out so this kind gentleman can try and capture those kittens. Do you have one of our cat traps? At one point we had 5. Now we have one broken one. We’re supposed to write down when someone borrows one, but things can get crazy at the shelter and mostly it’s just one person manning the place, so we don’t always get the sign out log completed. If you have one, could you return it? No late fee or judgement. We all forget stuff. There is a local gentleman trying to trap some stray kittens and we’d like to help him out. He’s successfully trapped many in the past and we have spayed/neutered and vaccinated them.

Update! Jude has been adopted! 🐾❤️Meet office assistant extraordinaire, Jude! She has been at the shelter for almost a year and with that seniority came the position of Shelter Admin Associate. She is an excellent paper weight, dog tester & greeter. With our cabin office closing at the end of the year, it leaves Judy without a job. She is about 10 years old and a very chill and affectionate girl. She has diabetes which is being managed with a readily available special diet and a supplement. (No shots.) She will have to be fed separately from other critters and at specific times of day. Other than that, she’s an easy going girl looking for a sunny spot to land. She’s ready to retire and live the good life having helped see off so many homeless animals to their forever homes. Perhaps over 300? Always giving them the Jude well wishes for a fantastic and harmonious future.

Update! Sonny has been adopted and doing fabulous in his new home. Meet Sonny! This land seal/house hippo is such a looker with his silvery coat and winning smile. With the shelter closing at the end of the year, Sonny needs a soft place to land. He may not like cats, but he loves people. He’s a cuddle bug and would happily snuggle up for a Netflix binge with you on the couch. He’s equally as comfortable on a walk or hike and has nice manners while out and about. His adoption fee has been sponsored by a generous donor, so your only initial investment would be giving him all the love. Reciprocated x10.

Handsome Soli is seeking his forever home. We will be closing the shelter at its current location before the end of the year. We need to find a soft place for our remaining residents to land. Time is of the essence for this sweet boy and they really don’t come any sweeter. He’s about 6 years young and loves belly rubs more than anything else. Well, snacks most of all, but we just got his waistline back so we are limiting those. Sorry Soli. He is a champ in the car and a master of basic commands. Please consider adopting Soli.

Pretty Harper holds the dubious distinction of being our longest resident at the shelter. True, she will need a patient and loving home willing to work through some of her quirks, but when this dog loves her people, she loves them hard. She has a high prey drive, so no kitties or small furries. She’ll happily evict all the voles and other rodents from your yard. She loves to hike, zoomies in the snow and to tear apart stuffed toys. She is most comfortable with women as we believed she suffered violence from a man in her past and will need slow and careful introductions to men. Harper deserves a chance at a happy life. Check her out at imhs.org

Attention German shepherd lovers! Meet Kai! Kai is about 6 years old and is ready to escape the shelter life. As smart and social as she is, she is getting bored. One thing that never gets old for Kai is playing ball. She could do it all day. Chasing frisbees is pretty fun, too. She does also like to chase kitties, so no cats please. She can be an escape artist, so potential adopters must have a containment plan. She mostly just wants to be with her person and once bonded with you, would likely never leave your side. Fill out an app for Kai at imhs.org (Her adoption fee has been paid for by a donor- so she just needs an amazing home!)
