June 28th is World Day Against Pet Abandonment, started by the French group Solidarité Animal. It's not a coincidence if it's observed on the last Saturday of the month when thousands of people go on holiday across Europe. In France, 100,000 animals are abandoned each year. A website has been created where you can sign a Responsible Pet Owner charter, promising to care for your pet. It is also a place where French animal lovers can find out how they can support their local shelters and help those in need. The French government is also discussing the implementation of a "pet permit," which would require passing a test before being allowed to purchase or adopt an animal.

Per usual, any brand of dog food is fine, and we also accept open bags.

We are running through kitten food like you wouldn't believe. DHS has 24 kittens with growing appetites. So we are always needing more wet food.

National Take Your Dog to Work Day honors one of our most beloved pets. Wouldn’t you agree the hardest part of the day is leaving our four-legged fur babies behind as we head to work? So, when Pet Sitters International pitched the idea of taking them with us, how could we resist? Dogs brighten up even the best days, so it’s pretty obvious they will up the fun factor at work exponentially. As you run out the door, don’t forget your briefcase and a doggie bag. We’ll see you at the office! ❤️🐶💼

Our Story

We are the Driftless Humane Society, License #466290, located in Viroqua, Wisconsin. We are dedicated to rescuing, returning and re-homing cats and dogs in the community. Our mission is to rescue, our dream is one day we won’t have to.

We are a no-kill shelter. Unfortunately, circumstances sometimes dictate euthanization of an animal in the event of serious illness or injury or extreme behavioral disorders. We do not euthanize due to overcrowding, ever.

We are not funded by any national organization, nor are we supported by Vernon County. Our operations are funded solely through adoptions, donations and contracts with individual municipalities. We continually operate in the red .... please consider a donation. It’s easy - simply click on the “Learn More” button on our page. This will take you to our website, scroll down to the bottom for the “donate” button.

See our adoptable dogs and cats at Petfinder.com, or stop by during our open hours to visit.
