A new look for the Coon Rapids adoption center

Last fall, Animal Humane Society’s Golden Valley location received a makeover. This winter, the attention turned to our Coon Rapids location and the results are fabulous!

The new look is more open, colorful and offers improved visibility for cats and other animals. A new checkout desk, retail area, and comfortable seating areas make for an inviting space for customers to complete adoptions. The adoption process also received a makeover giving adopters a fun, comfortable, informative, personalized, and efficient experience.

Things are looking up for Gump

We like to think that the animals who wait a bit longer to be adopted are just waiting for the right person who can give them exactly what they need. Gump, a 12-year-old Jack Russell Terrier, spent a few weeks in our care. All of the staff and volunteers were enamored with Gump and couldn’t figure out why he hadn’t been chosen yet. Sure, he was an older dog, with some age-related health issues including diminished sight due to cataracts — but he had the most delightful personality that outweighed any of that! Well Gump’s time finally came, and after receiving an update from his new adopter, we’re happy to say that the wait was well worth it — it is the perfect home!
