We believe that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans, and must be protected under the law. We provide animal rescue, animal placement and animal protection. We are fortunate that in Vernon County we do not see a lot of animal cruelty cases. Our resources are primarily used for shelter intake and surrender. Navigate to our Adoption page for animals ready for their forever home.
