New Shelter Coming Soon!

 


Opening in 2011 !


On Feb. 11, 2010, City officials broke ground on the new Denver Animal Shelter.

Soon to be located at 1241 W. Bayaud Ave. along the I-25 corridor adjacent to the Platte River, the new shelter site offers better visibility, a larger lot and better access off the Platte River trail.
