COME VISIT US
We’d love to see you at 1290 Jaycee Court, Shawano, WI 54166!
Visitors are always welcome during our open hours — whether you’re here to meet your next best friend or simply want to spend some time with our animals. Every walk, cuddle, and kind word helps them feel safe, loved, and ready for their forever homes.
To ensure a calm, enriching environment for both our animals and visitors, we kindly ask that all dog walkers and volunteers schedule their visits in advance. This helps us avoid overcrowding and allows us to give each animal the attention they deserve.
Thank you for helping us make the shelter a peaceful, positive place for every furry friend in our care!
