Our organization was founded in early 2002 in response to a broadly recognized need to improve the situation for companion animals in the Star Valley, Wyoming area. AHA-SV is a 501(c) (3) charitable organization.

"Building successful partnerships for people and animals"
• We support responsible animal caretakers by reducing numbers of homeless pets through low cost spay/neuter programs.

• We offer advice related to training and care to help animals stay in their current homes.

"Finding a place for animals"
• Some of our members open their hearts and homes to temporarily shelter needy animals.

• We try to find new homes for pets when needed.

• We want to see an animal shelter built and managed somewhere in Star Valley, and are actively pursuing the idea.

If you have a dog or cat that you want to surrender, or if you have found a pet please call the Star Valley Animal Humane Hotline at (307) 883-PETS. Please be aware that at this time all of our Foster Homes are full. Until we have an opening, we can put a digital picture of your pet that needs surrendering on our web site and flyers.  We will have to ask you to keep the animal until we have a foster care opening or can locate a "forever" home.  Your assistance is appreciated. WE NEED NEW FOSTER HOMES!
