Elk Country Animal Shelter

The Donald Reece Animal Shelter served as the foundation stone for the establishment of the Otsego County Animal Control Department in 1974. The director of animal control is in charge of managing the staff and the shelter's general operations. The County Administrator is the Director's superior.

On March 20, 1972, the Cheboygan County Humane Society became a legal entity. The Society is committed to supporting the adoption of adoptable, stray animals and locating homes for them.

By rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming domestic animals in need, we want to enhance the lives of animals. We also aim to prevent domestic animal overpopulation by promoting spay and neuter campaigns.

Since it opened more than 30 years ago, the AuSable Valley Animal Shelter has saved and enhanced the lives of thousands of stray cats and dogs. Our directors, staff, and volunteers put in a lot of effort to support our aim of giving animals loving, permanent homes.

The Alpena County homeless dogs and cats are taken care of by the nonprofit Huron Humane Society, Inc. (HHS). We are a no-kill shelter dedicated to curing and rehabilitating the adoptable dogs and cats that come through our doors.

The Charlevoix Area Humane Society is an independent non-profit 501(c)3 no-kill animal shelter that has been helping pets and their owners in Charlevoix County since 1974. It is committed to the protection and care of all animals.
