Animal Shelters

When I put on Sandi's service jacket, she was aware that she had a task to complete. She gave her all to everyone she encountered every day of her life. It was fantastic to watch how happy she made other people. When I had to say goodbye to Sandi, she was just 16 years old.

A brutal act that killed Flash, a four-year-old Basset Hound, prompted the creation of the Dunn County Humane Society. In honor of him, it is dedicated to ending animal suffering. The Society was granted nonprofit status by the State of Wisconsin in December 1993.

The Chippewa Humane Association is doing an RAFFLE to collect money to support the diversity of animals that enter our doors in need of a haven to be looked after, fed, and loved until they find their forever home.

For more than 20 years, the Buffalo County Humane Association has provided care for companion animals. The Jerome and Judith Benson Animal Shelter, our first permanent shelter structure, debuted in November 2019.

We have linked dogs with their perfect homes since 2009. Instead of having tragic endings, strays, geriatric, and special needs canines have found their happily ever afters.

We are a team of neighborhood animal rescues dedicated to preserving animal life. Hazard and Harlan, both in Kentucky, are the locations of the shelters from which these animals are being rescued. These are mountain cities that have a LOW adoption rate and a HIGH kill rate. In order to make room for new intake, they were forced to EUTHANIZE more than 60 cats and kittens in September 2017. We came to the realization that there IS anything we can do to change things at this point. We got in touch with Starfish Animal Rescue to try and stop this awful incident. Starfish transports animals from these rural locations to secure, devoted rescues and homes in collaboration with neighborhood rescues.

 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.

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.

A foster-based rescue organization called Albert's Dog Lounge is dedicated to finding aging, disabled, and hospice dogs loving homes. We assist dogs in need from local families who can no longer care for their pets as well as from overcrowded shelters.

Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin are served by the non-profit 501(c)3 Labrador Education and Rescue Network (L.E.A.R.N. ), which is run entirely by volunteers. Foster homes and volunteers form a network that communicates over the Internet and at L.E.A.R.N. activities. There isn't an adoption facility at L.E.A.R.N. From young to old, we accept and foster Labradors of ALL ages (rarely puppies). None of us are breeders.
