UCHS is a private nonprofit organization with a mission of connecting people with animals and enriching lives. Founded in 1913, our vision is to be a compassionate organization, that places every adoptable animal into a forever home without time limits, and to effectively advocate for the humane treatment of all animals. We coordinate programs and services for the people and animals of our community that increase public awareness and education, and are committed to continually getting better every day. We currently operate a 6,800 sq ft facility and successfully place 95+% of the 1,200 animals in our care each year; we place 100% of the adoptable animals!
