Humane Society of Burnett County

Our mission is to offer a safe haven for abandoned or unwanted animals, to promote responsible pet ownership, to nurture the human-animal link, and to prevent pet overpopulation by spaying and neutering.

RAISE AWARENESS AMONG THE PUBLIC OF THE HUMANE TREATMENT AND CARE OF ANIMALS AND SERVE AS A RESOURCE FOR INFORMATION ON PETS AND THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF PET

Only dogs from within the confines of Sawyer County are accepted at the dog pound. Before delivering a stray dog, kindly check with the pound to see if there is room.

The Northwoods Humane Society (NHS) was founded with the purpose of giving abandoned animals a safe haven. NHS will endeavor to place animals in suitable homes, offer medical attention as necessary, and work to socialize and train them to be more successful in a household environment.

Gregory's Gift of Hope is located on a 5.8 acre site in New Richmond, Wisconsin, where we offer our rescued dogs and cats not just the needs of life—food, housing, and medical attention—but also the caring embraces of people who actually care about these animals.

For the past 18 years, the Barefoot Crow Animal Rescue has taken in all kinds of domestic animals. To mention a few of the animals we accept include horses, barn cats, dogs, potbelly pigs, goats, lambs, alpacas, and llamas.
