The Humane Society of Ventura County is a compassionate care shelter and non-profit organization dedicated to the protection and adoption of animals in need throughout Ventura County.
Often times orphaned animals, too young to survive on their own, are brought to shelters and rescues to be cared for. These young animals need around the clock care, and shelters rely on fosters to provide them with everything they need during this vulnerable time. When volunteer fosters are not available, our staff is always ready and willing to step up.
Thank you to the Recruiters from Navy Recruiting District Los Angeles - Coastal Division for coming to the Humane Society of Ventura County to help clean up around our grounds.

On August 15th, a dog fell down the cliffside of the Ventura River in Oak View. Luckily, the Ventura County Fire Department Station #23 was there to help! Thank you to Captain, Tod Berryman; Engineer, Reed Adams; Fireman & Paramedic, Ryan Coccia; Fireman, Myles Shuler; and Fireman, Aaron Cranage, for their outstanding work! *The dog had no injuries and is happy to be back at home with his family.*
Thank you, Channing, for adopting Cheez-It and Arlene! It's always a good day when not one, but two kittens get to go home to the same family! Word must have gotten around that the Humane Society of Ventura County was full of cats and kittens available for adoption.
Whether assisting our kennel staff caring for animals, answering phones, or organizing an event, our volunteers are truly worth their weight in gold. Dominic has been volunteering for the Humane Society of Ventura County since 2015. Over the years, he has helped the Shelter in a variety of areas working with our animals and helping at the various events the Shelter puts on throughout the year. However, what he enjoys the most is working with the dogs.
The Humane Society of Ventura County is pleased to be the recipients of a $42,000 grant from the GlobalGiving Foundation, recently secured by Grant Associate, Ralph Saccomano. A portion of these resources has already been put to good use with the purchase of a new horse stock trailer and initial support for our recently implemented Pantry 4 Paws program. GlobalGiving is the largest global crowdfunding community connecting nonprofits, donors, and companies in nearly every country, and we at the HSVC are grateful for their generosity.
