Forest County Humane Society

The Forest County Humane Society has embraced its mission of rescuing animals for the past 21 years. We are committed to being a shelter from the storm and a safe haven for all companion animals by providing food, medical care and human tenderness. By taking a firm stand against animal cruelty and abuse, and through community education and adoption services, we continue to enrich the lives of animals.

 The Forest County Humane Society is a non-profit, no-kill shelter in the great north woods located in Crandon, Wisconsin. We rescue, rehabilitate and adopt out all breeds of dogs and cats. Every animal is given a thorough examination by a veterinarian before placing them in a loving home and all animals are tested for Lyme disease, heartworm, feline leukemia and other infectious or debilitating diseases. They are vaccinated, de-wormed and spayed or neutered. All animals are lovingly cared for until being placed in their “fur-ever” family. 

 While our love and care knows no bounds, funding to maintain our shelter and services is always a challenge. The Shelter does not receive county, state or federal funding so we do are doing this Brick Project to raise funds for much-needed building improvements, veterinarian care and animal enrichment. A new training facility is currently under construction to provide space to give all dogs we see basic obedience training and social skills to give them the best chance for adoption. We will also offer obedience training and educational seminars to all citizens in Forest County.  The bricks purchased are a lovely memorial to much-loved animal companions and will become the walk-way pavement in front of the new training center. Bricks can be purchased for placement in the walkway or for personal memorials. Please consider purchasing a brick or two to commemorate your favorite animals while helping to support the Forest County Humane Society!

We would like to give you the option of taking your memorial brick home with you and not placing it in our project.  If you would like to take advantage of this option, you need to note “Picking up brick” in the comment section of the online order form and brochure.  If you choose “Picking up brick” you will be responsible for picking up your brick, at our shelter, within 60 days of being notified that it has arrived.  We will not ship any bricks to you.  Any bricks not picked up in that time frame will be put into our project.

Bricks ordered with no comment made in the “comment” sections will 

automatically be put in our project.
