Nora is a 9-year-young malamute full of energy and love. Nora's beautiful, smart, and affectionate. She does well with other dogs but would prefer a home without cats. She would probably do well with kids, too. Nora is originally from Texas, but is enjoying the Montana weather – so she would make a great outdoor adventure partner!

About YVAS

Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter was established as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in 2007 and officially took over the sheltering of the City’s companion animals in 2009.  It is a common misconception that Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter (YVAS) is a division of the City of Billings. While we do maintain a contract with the City to care for Billings’ lost/stray animals, we are separate entities.  In fact, our City contract accounts for less than one-third of the shelter’s annual income, leaving us to raise the remainder of our budget through other means.  In 2021, YVAS entered into a contract with Yellowstone County Sheriff’s Office to house and reunite lost dogs.  Unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to provide an open-door policy to County cats at this time. We will accept cats from outside Billings city limits on a case-by-case basis, depending on adoptability and availability of space.

Over the last decade, YVAS has grown to become the largest shelter in Montana, intaking over 5,000 animals every year.  Despite being one of the largest shelters in the state, YVAS has one of the smallest staffs when compared to others in Montana.

YVAS has also made many changes over the years; ever-evolving to provide the best care for animals and the people of the Billings community.  Our current shelter programs include reuniting lost pets with their owners, adoption, foster care, volunteer, outreach & education, low-cost spay & neuter clinics, and our life-saving Working Cat Program.  We have recently partnered with the University of Wisconsin Shelter Medicine Program to increase our lifesaving capacity and improve the health and well-being of the animals in the community.

10 Things Montanans Do to Get on Santa’s Naughty List

There's 6 weeks 'til Christmas and as you can see,
People do naughty things unknowingly.
But if you do these on purpose on the naughty list you'll go,
And if you do nice things then it's gratitude I'll show.
