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.
Save the date for FREE vaccines for your furry friends! Join us Saturday, February 25th, from 9 am - 12 pm at The Wharf Ventura for a FREE vaccination clinic courtesy of HSVC Cares. No appointment necessary. First come first served while supplies last!
Ladybug was brought to the HSVC by our Humane Officers in late November after being impounded in the field with a severe untreated head injury. Further veterinary treatment and x-rays showed several fractures throughout her body in various stages of healing, including a severe previously sustained knee injury. Though her knee injury is not currently causing her discomfort, it is possible she may require surgery in the future if it is exacerbated with age and growth.
We want to give a heartfelt thank you to our friends at Kennel Quilts for sending our critters so many beautiful quilts! In times of disaster, we are grateful to our supporters for going above and beyond to make sure our shelter animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved! Thank you Kennel Quilts!
We are looking for a reliable, skilled maintenance worker to join our HSVC team! This individual will be tasked with performing essential upkeep tasks throughout our facility including kennel repairs, yard maintenance, and daily operations assistance. If you are a self-motivated person with a passion for problem-solving and collaboration, we want you on our team!
It's been a busy week at the HSVC and we don't see it slowing down any time soon! We have taken in several evacuated horses whose homes were being threatened by severe flooding. Our Humane Officers and equine specialists went out in the field to assist anyone in need with evacuating their barn animals. Our kennel staff has been working tirelessly to care for the additional animals now at the shelter and our office staff has been busy answering calls to offer additional resources. Thank you all for your dedication and hard work!
Our HSVC Cares free vaccine clinic at Alano Club of Oxnard was a huge success! Thank you to all who attended to take advantage of free vaccines for their furry friends, and thank you to Alano Club of Oxnard for hosting us!
Attention pet owners! Ventura County, specifically the Ojai Valley, is under a severe flood watch until 10 pm Tuesday. Please keep your animals indoors as much as possible to keep them safe and dry. Be sure to have go-bags prepared for your pets with all the important items they will need in the event you need to evacuate quickly.
Attention cat and kitten lovers! Our shelter is overflowing with feline friends, so we are offering an adoption special to help them find their furever homes faster. Cat and kitten adoption fees are half-priced all January long! What better way to ring in the New Year than with a new fur best friend!
