Impact and Programs
Accomplishments
In 2024, Northwoods Humane Society took in 368 dogs and 948 cats. Each of these animals received an assessment from our animal care and vet medicine teams and received needed medical treatment, enrichment, and day-to-day support. Each animal is up to date on vaccines and receive spay or neuter surgery before they go to their forever home. We adopted out 301 dogs and 844 cats. 58 dogs and 23 cats were returned to their owner or transferred to partner animal welfare organizations. Our vet medicine team performed 960 spay/neuter surgeries, 86 dental surgeries, and 62 general surgeries to address injuries or illnesses.
