The Dumb Friends League has a history of service. For more than 100 years, we have sheltered and cared for lost, abandoned and abused pets. 

Thanks to wide community support, we offer programs that help both pets and people. 

We are proud to be the metro-Denver area’s local humane society. You are invited to visit our website and our two shelters to learn more about us.

 

If you’re not quite ready to adopt—consider becoming a foster-care volunteer. It’s fun, rewarding and free.

Our Douglas County shelter, also open seven days a week, is located near I-25, south of the Outlets at Castle Rock.
