All too often, when the interests of man and animal are in conflict, man prevails. Animal welfare is a social matter, of which, people need learn to be passionate. The Eau Claire County Humane Association is dedicated to educating the public about the need for humane treatment of all animals and responsible pet ownership. We must rely on donations from our friends and supporters who share our beli

ef that every animal deserves the opportunity to be adopted into a loving home. Because it is difficult to run a shelter based solely on donations, our success depends on you. You CAN make a difference. Your generous support of the Humane Association will help us to feed and care for our local pets until they are adopted into a loving home.

Halloween candy can pose many risks to explorative pups - from GI Upsets and choking hazards, blockages to poisoning, here's why you should keep those Halloween treats up in a cabinet once they come home.

Indulging in Halloween goodies is a skele-fun way to celebrate spooky season. And while these terrifyingly tasty treats are love-at-first-bite for us humans, the thought, “Can dogs eat candy?” may cross your mind while your canine companion uses their big ol’ puppy-dog eyes to plead for a taste.

But as much as they might want you to share everything in what they imagine is their very own doggy trick-or-treat bag, dogs cannot eat candy or other Halloween treats. These foods pose several risks to pooches. [Chewy] spoke with two veterinarians to learn more about popular Halloween candy, the risks involved if ingested, and what to do if your dog eats candy or candy wrappers.

Día de Mu***os, or the Day of the Dead, is one of the most beloved traditions in Mexican culture. It is a day to honor and celebrate those who are no longer with us. Día de Mu***os for pets is traditionally observed on October 27th as a day to honor the pets that have crossed the rainbow bridge. 🌈

It goes without saying that the most important thing when honoring our furry or other animal friends is to remember them with love, even though they are no longer physically with us. An altar in their honor is a tangible way to express our love, which undoubtedly transcends dimensions, and invites them to visit their old home, even if just for one night of the year.

At ECCHA, we invite everyone during open hours (Friday + Saturday 1-4) to bring in a photo of their shelter pet to place on our alter as a way to celebrate and remember our wonderful shelter pets who are no longer with us. If you can't stop in, please email a photo and a short memory to [email protected] to be added!

We also encourage donations of food, toys, treats, and anything else you think your fur babies would have taken over the rainbow bridge to add to our alter.

It's Foster Friday! Stop in and see the dynamic duo, Atlas + Pangea!

These wonderful boys are being fostered together, and they love it! They are both deaf, but that doesn't stop them from being playful and snuggly. These two share everything - even their food!

Today (Friday) and tomorrow they will be hanging out at the shelter, waiting to meet their new family. Stop in and say hello!

Update ****
Louie received so much love (and applications) from this post that we are confident he will be in his new home soon. We are currently not accepting any more applications for Louie! Continue to enjoy his silly faces though!

This is an appreciation post for Louie and his silly faces 🤪

Louie came in as a transfer, and quickly stole the hearts of everyone at ECCHA. With his resting-grumpy-face, he hasn't had very much interest yet. But, we promise he is a goofy lover boy! He has done well in our puppy play group and would enjoy a buddy or two to spend time with. He does not have a tail - but he is a still a certified wiggle butt!

Learn more and see more of Louie's goofy faces during open hours TODAY (Thursday) until 7 or Friday & Saturday 1-4!

WARNING: HEART-MELTING POST AHEAD ⚠

Meet Echo. To say he is a staff favorite is an understatement! Echo and his buddy Sully were surrendered to us due to no fault of their own. Echo (and Sully!) has the sweetest disposition and was clearly very loved by his owner. Echo was born without eyes, so Echo is completely blind.

Echo uses his other senses, particularly his hearing, to navigate his daily life. He loves the sound of a treat box shaking, someone excitedly saying hello to him, and, of course, the sound of a squeaky toy. We don't think Echo has ever met a person he doesn't like, as he will always walk up when you say his name and ask for back scratchies.

Echo will need a special owner ready to take on the task of owning a blind dog. While he does very well, another friend in the home is a must for him. A steadfast and calm companion would be a great fit to keep Echo confident. Sully and Echo are not bonded, but they sure would love to go home together again! Ask our adoption staff about adopting them both.
