Welcome to the Forest County Humane Society
The Forest County Humane Society is a non-profit 501(c)(3) no-kill shelter in Wisconsin’s Northwoods - Crandon, WI.
We rescue, rehabilitate, and provide adoption of all breeds of dogs, cats, and other small companion animals.
We provide veterinary services for every animal that we rescue before they are adopted, including spaying/neutering (if animal is old enough), all vaccines and boosters, a Lyme disease test, heartworm check, and deworming.
We care for our homeless animals until we can place them with loving families.
We are not funded by the county, state, or federal government.
We are funded solely from donations (small and large) from people just like you.

Please choose the adoption option. Saving a life is priceless.
*Please Note: If you become approved to adopt from us and choose to commit to a certain animal that at the time is too young to adopt or may still need vaccinations or spay/neuter, we will accept a deposit to hold the animal for you until he/she is ready to go home but please know that if you change your mind or if your circumstances change and you are no longer able to complete the adoption, these deposits are nonrefundable.The amount of this "HOLD FEE" varies, is set by shelter management, and depends on the animal in question.
