Beaverhead Animal Shelter

Great no kill shelter for pets who need a home. Good people working there with lots of patients and a love for animals.

It's almost like they don't want to place dogs. I've been in there several times over the past few months I'm always told they have no dogs that fit what I'm looking for which I have very few requirements they take down my name and number I have seen several dogs on their website that sound like they would have been wonderful for me but I've yet to get to meet any of them----update I raised them from 3 stars to 5 it did take over a year before they finally said hey come look at this dog we think he is a match they were so right he is about as perfect for me as could be possible

I adopted a very loving cat yesterday! All the staff are very helpful and you can see their passion and genuine commitment to all the animals. I drove 150 miles and would do it again in a heartbeat for such a wonderful fur baby!

I give this business four stars. Not only were the people who work here extremely helpful. They were nice and friendly. They all came out to help unload the dog's that I have transported from Idaho. They wanted to know as much as possible about each dog so they could tell their new owners. They had no problem showing me around basically it was like a private tour. The place was neat and clean. All the dog's there seamed well taken care of. When people care about the dog's you can tell it's more than a job to them it's about the animals.

I was so fortunate to find my forever friend at this shelter. From the day I saw Tuff at the gates and took him for a test walk, I knew he was as special as a dog could be. He has been a light in my life and my absolute best friend. After I adopted him, I quickly realized he is a take-anywhere, meet-anybody kind of guy. He has worked livestock in Wyoming, protected me on the streets of Sioux City, and moved across the country with me. I guess what I am trying to say is to ADOPT, because there are priceless animals at shelters like this one. I owe it to Beaverhead shelter to help me find my special dog.

It is the worst kennel I have ever seen. They straight up abused one of the pets of mine by dticking her in a cage and leaving it like that. My fog stunk so bad I almost puked. Try have my dog somewhere and won’t call to see how Angel is adjusting. The ignorance they showed is appalling. They should be shut down.

Unfortunately this shelter did NOT work out for us. I have selfishly sent all my donations, all my money to this shelter, for years! Simply because of their big dog program.. I honestly believed they had the big dog at heart. And appointments where honored!..Ugh... After several mastiff rescues, we unfortunately missed their mark. 30 years experience, and we were contacted as we were half there. Montana is not a small state, Takes a while to get places. . I really hope the mastiff (corso) entered the best home. After several communications over weeks, we were an hour late. Multiple weeks, an hour late! There's plenty of rescues in the state that need these donations. Please think elsewhere. Bonus, they did call! Just after we had already spent an hour on the road, and plenty in $. THINK ELSEWHERE! Please still donate!

From the outside it looks a little run down but they do a wonderful job on social media and placing pets! What I love most is they test their dogs for adoption with kids, other dogs, live stock, leash manners, commands, house training, etc. So you will know the personality of the dog you hope to adopt.

I recommend adopting from Beaverhead Animal Shelter! My husband and I drove from Bozeman to adopt our sweet and loving kitty from them. Staff is friendly, and passionate about the animals they care for at the shelter. Could not be happier with the outcome of choosing to adopt from them! Thanks again!
