Our special medical fund is named after Champion, a happy, sociable nine-month old German Shepherd cross that came to CVHS in December 2007 with a deformed right front leg,  His leg had been broken at some point in his young life and never repaired. Through the generosity of donors, Champion’s costly surgery was a success, and today he enjoys long walks with his new family.

Can you help us give more pets the quality of life they deserve?

Every year, Champion’s Fund covers the cost of surgical medical procedures for many of our shelter animals. CVHS is incredibly grateful to our community who generously supports our animals every day. Without your support, our ‘champions’ would not have received medical surgeries that greatly improves their lives and gives them all a second chance. From all of us at Cocheco Valley Humane Society, we offer a huge thank you for all that you do for the animals.

Meet one of our ‘champions’!

MALONY came to CVHS in September 2011 and the staff could immediately see that he had something wrong with his eyes. He was diagnosed with severe glaucoma with bilateral cataracts and the recommendation was to have his eyes removed. After surgery, he went into a foster home where he learned very quickly to get around and find his way. He went to his forever home in November 2011.
