Our Vision:
A world in which every animal is loved and every person knows the love of an animal. Our Values:
Compassion- Kindness is at the core of our mission. At VHS we treat everyone with respect and understanding. Animals at VHS are treated individually with the sensitivity and caring they deserve. Companionship- Everyone deserves a friend. VHS creates opportunities for people to experience
the love of a pet, as well as connect with others. We believe that life lived as part of a loving family is richer, happier, and more fulfilling. Optimism- VHS is a warm, happy place, a feeling reflected by the well-being of the animals in our care. We believe visiting, volunteering, and working here should be a fun, positive experience, a vibe we carry out with us into the community. Our good spirits cultivate enthusiasm for our mission and keep us hopeful when things get challenging. Gratitude- We appreciate the many talents brought to bear by our volunteers and staff to achieve our mission. The mental, physical, and emotional gifts offered to VHS are as important as the financial contributions, both large and small, of our many donors. We recognize that these gifts, taken together, are what allow us in turn to serve the animals and people of our community. Collaboration- The task before us is greater than any one person. Our relationships with the community, business, and other rescue organizations increase our capacity and amplify our impact. We work together to achieve a common goal. At VHS we lead the way by actively cultivating cooperative partnerships. Integrity- Our path is paved with more than good intentions. At VHS we strive to act with integrity and honesty. Decisions are based on sound judgment and careful reasoning. We are fiscally responsible and understand our commitment to our animals, donors, volunteers, and community.

Hershey arrived at Valley Humane as a young adult who immediately wowed our adoption team with his silly and friendly demeanor. Hershey went to a wonderful foster home for a few weeks to make some new friends, and get ready for adoption with his neuter surgery at the Phil Scholz Veterinary Surgery Center. Hershey’s sweet personality was a perfect match for his new guardian, Gaia, and he even has a new sibling to play with.
Gaia recently sent an email to update us on how Hershey’s been settling in.
“Hershey now goes by Myko and is fitting in nicely in his new home! He’s an expert morning cuddler which makes mornings much more enjoyable! He also loves napping inside blankets when he’s not exploring every nook and cranny inside and outside the house. Most of the time you’ll find Myko lounging in the sun somewhere in the backyard. He has fun playing with his feline sibling in their crinkly tunnel toy.”
Sounds like it’s going well in your new home, Hershey. Wishing you a very happy life full of soft blankets morning cuddles cuddles!
