By saving pet lives this fund celebrates and strengthens the human and animal bond, achieving AVHSâs vision of a safe and humane world for all companion animals, Amber van Leuken, Ark-Valley Humane Society executive director wrote.Â
Chaffee County residents whose dog or cat is faced with a life-threatening accident or illness and who need assistance with veterinarian bills may apply at https://www.chaffeecommunity.org/cpef.
