Central Dakota Humane Society

CDHS is an Animal Rescue, Shelter and Adoption Center. Kittens especially thrive when adopted with a sibling or a friend. We ARE a vital asset in our community.
(221)

Central Dakota Humane Society provides care and support for stray, abandoned, neglected, and injured animals – from rescue through adoption. We provide shelter, a warm bed, nutritious food, veterinary and medical care, socialization, play time, training, and love – and we match the animals with loving, forever homes where they can live their best lives. CDHS helps the community through our program

s:
- Spay/Neuter Assistance Program - provides coupons that reduce the cost of spay/neuter surgeries in the central North Dakota area
- Buddy’s Bowl Program – regularly delivers pet food to pet families in need through local human aid organizations
- Friends Fur Life – matches senior pets with senior people for a waived adoption fee
- 2-for-1 Cat/Kitten Adoptions - Adopt two cats or kittens for the adoption fee of one. Having a playmate and napping partner is so good for their mental and physical well-being. The CDHS shelter provides a place for people in the community to volunteer and provides a spot for folks to enjoy the companionship of an animal, take a breath, and find their calm. Please join us in helping pets in need. We challenge every pet lover to show your love for your own animals by giving back to those less fortunate.

Merle thinks the smartest thing for humans and dogs alike on days like these is to find the shady spot and take a little break.

Thank you to Chad with the Goodin Company for loading up and delivering a whole truck full of goods for a few local rescues, including us, Purrfect Pound Pals, and Kitty City. We use the food we received to help stock our Buddy's Bowl Program.

We are so grateful to Erin with Minn-Kota Paaws for handling all the logistics and to all the volunteers there for providing the sweat and muscle to distribute food and pet supplies to many shelters and rescues.

Doing it all for pets in need. It's truly amazing.

Saba: Thanks, Tami, for the new toys. I luv the big ball!

Little Ludwig is gaining strength and coordination and making progress everyday. He is a little spitfire and full of sass! He has a ways to go, but what great momentum so far. ❤️

Saba enjoys a shady roll in the grass. What a charmer.

Our little paralyzed kitten, Ludwig, is making some progress! He is getting steroids and they must be helping. When he first came in he could not even get his legs under him at all and now look at him go!

It's hard to tell on this video but this little guy's back legs are completely paralyzed. Nothing is broken and we are dosing him with steroids and giving him time. Hopefully he can do some healing and get some function back in his little legs. He is very vocal and spunky. He keeps telling us he has things to do. Let's see what Ludwig ends up doing.

From Volunteer Bev: "This sweetheart, Saba, is looking for his forever home. He is a young lab mix, full of all the energy and inquisitiveness of the breed. He loves to go on runs and walks, play fetch, and he’s mastered the “lab lean” when we do our luv stops. Please come meet him at CDHS!"

Testing the Waters with Sorel

Here's another batch of sweet little babies. Momma is doing a great job. The weeks will fly by and these kittens will be available before you know it.

Jax had some rainy day enrichment fun last week. Food puzzles are a good way to keep your dog active, thinking, and using their sniffer, which are all so important for their mental health.

When you step in the chicken baby food you gots to clean your feets!

Even though our Shaggy Shuffle ended up soggy, Oakley was already registered and stopped by to get her Pup Cup! Good girl, Oakley!

What would a little baby be dreaming of? #sweetdreams #safeatCDHS

Clayton demonstrates the greatness of the PUP CUP! Register for Shaggy Shuffle to be sure to get your Pup Cup (first 100 to sign up!)

When the new mommas are feral or scared, it is quite a challenge. When the mommas are as sweet as this one, we breathe a sigh of relief.

Caturday 4-Pack

Four wee little kittens joined us today after their feral farm cat mother met a tragic end. They’re a spirited crew, cute as all get-out, and now they’re safe with us. You know the drill, humans. Spay. Neuter. Indoors. Adopt. Foster. Volunteer. Donate. Care. Please.

Mandy tells us about the Flowers for Fleas Online Auction. Join us online as we raise money to provide flea and tick treatments for the shelter pets.

Speed Dating with puppies at CDHS. Nothing better!

Carhartt (m) and Sorel (f) are siblings who are looking for their forever home. They have become increasingly confident and loving while living in the big cat room. If you are looking for a subdued, yet lovable and playful pair, these are the kitties for you.

Cheri and Fletcher - such good puppies. Waiting for homes with people who will love them.
