MVHR COVID Update!
Dear MVHR Community;
As restrictions tighten across our great state to help insure the health of our communities, MVHR finds that we must further restrict visits to the ranch. With heavy hearts, we must ask that all of our volunteers and any other visitors stay home, in accordance with Governor's order which goes in to effect today.

While it saddens us, we know the right thing to do while we are in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic is to protect our volunteers and staff who are dedicated to caring for our animals. And we know that this decision also serves our greater community.
