New Life Pet Adoption Center

The Humane Society of Marathon County, Inc.'s aim is to motivate and involve the local population in efforts to put an end to animal suffering and promote responsible pet ownership.

The goal of FETCH Foster and Rescue is to "advocate for shelter dogs through education, rescue, foster care, rehabilitation, and adoption in an effort to decrease the number of unnecessary pregnancies and those annually authorized."

We adopt dogs out through a thorough process that includes carefully matching them with adopters, educating potential adopters, and providing ongoing support. Dogs are then placed in loving, responsible, devoted permanent homes.

We work hard to maintain a No-Kill facility, a shelter for the mistreated, abandoned, or abused animals of Lincoln County and neighboring counties, a safe haven for healthy adoptable animals, a temporary home for the homeless.

When concerned residents realized Marshfield needed an animal sanctuary, MAPS was established in 2011. They put in a lot of effort to spread the word about their cause. To garner support, they participated in parades, sat at fair booths, served brat fries, and went to every local event they could.

 Although we currently only have a few open hours for visiting our adoptable animals, appointments can be made to see them after we have received and approved your adoption application.
