One of our amazing fosters, who helped Momma Mia raise up her babies, adopted her two favorites, Biscotti and Macaroon!! It was a tough choice, but you can’t keep them all! 🤣🤪

As the temps soar, please keep the safety of animals in mind! Do not leave pets in your car!

Come visit us at the Raise a Paw Fundraiser at Bradford Veterinary Clinic. They have lots of tail-waggin’ things in store for today: games, raffles, dog demos, vendors, and so much more! Stop by, join the fun, and support this fundraiser for animals in need. 🐾

Here at CVHS we go the extra-mile for the animals in our care, that includes hanging out with them during staff lunch breaks. Miss Elfie sure does love the extra company and one-on-one snuggle session...just look at that face! 🥰

While Elfie enjoys her ever so cozy set-up here, she would love to find a home of her own. Are you a single-dog kind of person, with no desire for other animals in your life? Elfie could be the perfect dog for you! Husky experience, and love of the classic sassiness that the breed exemplifies, is a requirement for her next home.

Thank you to our friends at Onion River Animal Hospital for spreading the word about all the wonderful Guinea Pigs we currently have available for adoption! 🥰

We currently have 6 young guinea pigs who seek new homes to call their own. Originally from a "oopsie litters" these guinea pigs are familiar with being handled, and living with other guinea pigs. Everyone shown is under one year of age and has been properly gendered by a veterinarian. Guinea Pigs are pack animals, and are happiest living with another Guinea Pig. Visit https://centralvermonthumane.org/adopt-a-critter/ to learn more about them!

A Walk to Remember! 🐾

Walk for Animals 2025 was one for the books and we can’t thank everyone enough for all of your support. To our sponsors, registered Walkers, one-time donors, volunteers, and board members – thank you! This event is the purr-fect example how our community comes together to accomplish the same goal – and that goal is to help vulnerable animals get a second chance to live their best life.

This was a record-breaking year, raising over $89,000 for shelter animals! You read that right – OVER $89,000!

We are SO close to hitting $90,000… just $338 away to be exact. Will you help make this year’s Walk for Animals paw-sitively remarkable by helping us get over the hump? https://secure.qgiv.com/event/2025cvhswalkforanimals/

100% of the proceeds will benefit animals like Garland, Reed, Western, and Kitty seen here in this video. From routine medical care like vaccinations, medicine, and spay/neuter all the way to pain-reliving surgeries like dentals and lump removals. Whatever service a shelter pet needs to help prepare them for adoption, your donation to the Walk will provide it!

We have limited time… our Walk website will be shut-down at 5pm tomorrow, June 13th. Make a donation now, and help us achieve this monumental goal that will help countless pets heal and find new loving homes.

We are still beaming about our big 🐾Walk for Animals🐾 event that took place over the weekend. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made this year’s event one to remember! The rain held off, so many of our friends (furry and human) showed up, Meteorologist Alex Wasilenko kept the party going, and the dog contests were a real hit! Thanks to everyone‘s unwavering support, we not only met our $80,000 goal, we exceeded it — raising a record-breaking amount of $88,381.72 for the shelter animals at CVHS. 😻 HUGE thanks goes out to our registered fundraisers, to those who donated, and our event sponsors, including Top Dog Sponsors: 802 Cars, One Stop Country Pet Supply, and Walmart Berlin - Berlin Mall Rd Ste 1 for helping us achieve this incredible feat!

The Walk for Animals wouldn’t be possible without the help of so many caring individuals and generous local businesses. Thank you to , Hannaford Supermarkets, and CVHS volunteer Wendy Knapp for donating a bunch of tasty refreshments for our guests. 🐈‍⬛🚶‍♀️🐕🚶

In addition to One Stop Country Pet Supply, Woodbury Mountain Toys, 's Flowers, Gifts and Antiques, Roam Vermont, Naked Growler, Market, Savoy Theatre, and Block Deli for donating ALL of the prizes so that 100% of the proceeds from this fundraiser goes directly to the animals! We’d also like to extend our thanks to all of the volunteers and vendors who dedicated their time to help offer all of the fun activities.

📸 We’d also like to give a shout out to Paul Richardson (Storyworkz) who offered professional dog headshots with the proceeds benefiting CVHS shelter animals, along with Wayne Fawbush and an anonymous photographer who did an outstanding job capturing our special event. I think it’s safe to say these photos of paws-itivly adorable!

Walk for Animals is a great example of how our community comes together to accomplish the same goal – and that goal is to help vulnerable animals get a second chance to live their best life. We are so humbled by everyone’s support, thank you!
