The Humane Society of Utah (HSU) is the largest and most effective animal shelter in Utah, saving the lives of more pets than any other (10,000 in 2014 alone)! HSU, founded in 1960, has always fostered an atmosphere of love and respect for animals. Our many programs include: low-cost spay/neuter and vaccination services, transfer/rescue of at-risk pets from overcrowded shelters throughout the western United States, adoption of homeless pets into loving homes, humane education for children, and cruelty investigations of animal abuse and neglect.​
