Most DCHS and Wildlife Center services are by appointment only, including reuniting lost animals, surrendering a pet, wildlife rehabilitation, and more. Adoption visits are first-come, first-served. We recommend checking our current waitlist prior to your visit.
The Main Shelter will be closed on Saturday, October 15th while we prepare for a special event. The Shelter will reopen on Sunday, October 16th.
The Thrift Store will be open during normal hours.
Dane County Humane Society's Wildlife Center will be open during normal hours. Please call them at (608) 287-3235 with any questions or if you have found a wild animal you believe is in need of assistance.
