Lake Haven Rescue

Animals from all across the county that are brought in as strays or surrenders are cared for and housed at the Newaygo County Animal Shelter (NCAS). We make every effort to return animals to their owners, find new homes for them as family pets, or transfer them to rescue organizations for rehoming anywhere in Michigan or elsewhere.

A non-profit 501c3 organization, Bellwether Harbor Animal Shelter and Training Center provides services. In order to get the abandoned, abused, and neglected dogs and cats in our shelter ready for adoption by those looking for a lifelong companion, we are committed to their health and well-being.

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT, WHETHER YOU CAN DONATE A FEW DOLLARS ONE TIME OR ARE ONE OF OUR MONTHLY DONORS, TO CONTINUE OUR LIFE SAVING MISSION!

We are a no-kill shelter and a 401(c)3 non-profit organization. All of our energy comes from volunteers. We support all cat breeds and are one of the few shelters that accepts FIV+ cats.

The sole open admission shelter in Muskegon County is called Pound Buddies. This means that regardless of age, breed, temperament, or state of health, we take all dogs that have been misplaced, abandoned, mistreated, or neglected.

We are the only animal shelter in Mecosta County. A group of concerned animal lovers came together to form ARC in 2011 with the goal of bettering the conditions for Mecosta County's dogs and cats.
