About Us

DCHS buildingIn 1999, the Door County Humane Society moved into its present facility and has placed thousands of companion animals into homes since then. A beautiful facility with very comfortable accommodations, in combination with the assistance of local veterinarians, the DCHS provides shelter and medical care for orphaned animals in Door County. This becomes a very expensive endeavor, but our reward comes when we successfully assist a member of our community in the adoption of a pet. As a non-profit, donor funded organization, we rely on the support and generosity of our volunteers and donors. Less than 4% of our funding comes from public sources.

Dog and volunteerEach year we care for hundreds of animals, nurturing them and diligently trying to find each one a loving home. On a daily basis we work through some of the saddest situations, about which most people could not bear to hear. But we find solace in the power of unconditional love given to us by the very animals we save and shelter from harm's way.

We do many community events and visit local schools.
