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.
On April 8th, handsome Frank will have been at the shelter for one year. This incredibly sweet guy can be a bit on the shy side but once he gets to know you he is very open to affection.
As the weather begins to warm up it is important to make sure your dog is properly groomed. Keeping your dog groomed is an essential part of dog ownership and a responsibility that is often overlooked or ignored. Here at the shelter we see animals every day whose grooming needs have not been tended to. These animals are often in distress and more likely to have behavior issues when they are not comfortable in their own skin.
One year old Mona is quite the catch! This 9 pound Miniature Pinscher mix is the perfect size for someone looking for a small dog but also an activity buddy!
For those who enjoy the outdoors with your dogs or those backed up to hillsides and in rural areas, rattlesnakes can be a great risk to your dog requiring emergency medical care. Rattlesnake avoidance training will teach your dog to avoid the sight, sound and the smell of a rattlesnake to give you peace of mind.

Easter Sunday is this week and many people are looking forward to spending some quality time with family. Some families have little ones that are excited to go hunting for Easter eggs and maybe even receive some gifts! However, some presents that people give to their young loved ones are living animals such as bunnies, ducks, and chicks. These cute animals may sound like great gift ideas to many people, but are they really?
