Coppell Humane Society

You're the reason tails wag and hearts heal!

   

Coppell Humane Society is a 100% volunteer-run foster based rescue that rescues cats and dogs in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. We pull animals from local shelters and those living on the streets to help alleviate overcrowding in shelters, saves animals from being euthanized, and place difficult to adopt animals into homes where they can socialize with adults, children and other animals. We also work with local rescue organizations to help spay/neuter stray animals to reduce the overall number of strays. Since our inception in 1989, we have helped thousands of animals find loving forever homes.

CHS is a small organization with a big heart! All of our animals live in volunteer foster homes. Because of this, we have minimal operating expenses so the majority of funds we raise go directly toward animal care.

How does your donation help?  Your donations help us to provide basic medical care, vaccinations, food, supplies, spaying/neutering, microchipping, and additional care including caring for bottle-fed babies, treatment for infections, chronic illnesses, emergency room visits, elder care, surgery, and specialist visits.

"CHS receives no government funding or support from other humane societies, and adoption fees only cover approximately
one-third of the cost of basic animal care. Therefore, public donations are our main source of support
and an essential part of achieving our goals." ~ Karen Helms, Board President 

You are the reason we are able to do what we do! Thank you for helping us help them!

Our Current Needs

Coppell Humane Society's greatest need each year is donations to help cover the cost of veterinary services for the dogs and cats in our care. We strive to save any animal, without hesitation, who has known or unknown medical issues and without worry of whether we have the funds to cover the costs.

Here are some examples of how your donation helps!

$20 – Microchip implant for one kitten or puppy
$50 – One case of Royal Canin Kitten food or One Case of Purina Puppy food
$75 – Starter supplies for new foster animals (ex., bed, scratching post, litter box, toys, etc.)
$100 – Kitten Spay or Neuter
$300 – All Standard vetting costs for one kitten
$400 – All standard vetting costs for one puppy

When unexpected circumstances arise, additional costs are incurred for emergency and specialized vet care. You can read about some of our success stories by clicking on the Happy Tales! tab at the top of this page!

We have no physical location, therefore, we depend on the love and talents of foster families to save animals. Foster homes on average can take in 1-2 animals (sometimes up to five or more when fostering litters of puppies or kittens). While animals are being raised, undergoing treatment, trained, etc. that foster home is unavailable for another animal to be saved. More foster homes means more spaces for a scared and lonely animal to go before finding their fur-ever home.
