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.
Thank you, Valerie Freeman, for your donation in support of the programs and services offered by the Humane Society of Ventura County. Freeman, a long-time Ojai Studio Artist, recently hosted an exhibit “Vie d’Art” at the Ojai Art Center highlighting treasured pieces she had created over the past 30-years.
Congratulations Mia on finding her forever home with Jolene, Jeff, and their dogs Parker and Cooper. Mia, a 4-year-old German Shepherd, was brought to the Humane Society of Ventura County on February 22 by a kind citizen after she was found wandering in a canyon near Santa Paula. It appeared that Mia had been neglected and had recently given birth to a litter of puppies. Under the watchful eye of Christina Sisk, DVM, and the HSVC staff, Mia recovered quickly.
Thank you to Marnie Bond-Harrison, owner of Sailor and Friends Pet Supply for hosting the Humane Society of Ventura County’s Meet and Greet events every month! Once a month, we bring dogs (and occasionally cats!) for the public to meet and fall in love with.
In October, the Humane Society of Ventura County’s Senior Humane Officer Tracy Vail started a new Pack Walk Program. Tracy, a certified dog trainer, is trained on how to lead a pack walk.
As of Monday, March 11th, The Humane Society of Ventura County is open for its extended summer hours!
Volunteer Michelle (right) has been helping out at the Humane Society of Ventura County for about one year. Her primary love is with the big dogs. She can often be found playing with them in the HSVC Dog Agility Yard on the Shelter property in Ojai.
The Humane Society of Ventura County invites all animals lovers to join us at the Shelter for a wonderful morning of reading to our dogs and cats. This is a great opportunity to give back to the animals we love and brush up on your reading skills while you're at it!
Sheila has been with the Humane Society of Ventura County for a year and a half and loves coming to volunteer, “There are so many things to help out with, and I can choose what works best for my interests and schedule.” Sheila began volunteering for the HSVC after she retired and wanted to give back in a way to benefit the animals. She signed up, attended training, and never looked back.
