SafePets
Our newest program is a vision for Mountain Peace Shelter to provide shelter and safety for the pets of the women and children who come to our shelter to prevent their further abuse, injury, or death.
A survey of women in a safe house in Utah, found that 70% delayed leaving the abusive situation out of fear that their pet would be harmed.
It's a work in progress. . . .
We need your help.
We gratefully accept help finding the resources to pay vet bills or getting necessary supplies. As an alternative, we'll be happy to
accept cash or check donations to be used for the SafePets Program.
Thank you for your caring and support!

Safe Pets
Pets are family. Many people will not leave an abusive situation for fear that their pets may be injured or killed to get back at them. Mountain Peace Shelter is one of the only shelters in Colorado where pets can come and be with their humans. Mountain Peace has on-site facilities for dogs and cats and foster homes for horses and larger animals. Mountain Peace knows the importance of keeping all family members together and safe.
