About this shelter

Northwoods Animal Shelter in Iron River, MI

Northwoods Animal Shelter is located in Iron River, Michigan, about 110 miles south of Green Bay, WI, and is open Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. A non-profit corporation supported by and committed to the community of Iron County, it operates an Animal Shelter Complex offering a safe refuge where basic needs are met and limited medical care is provided for surrendered, stray, and neglected animals. Its mission is to inspire compassion and respect for homeless, abused, and neglected animals, stress the importance of spaying and neutering, and find a permanent, loving home for each animal, while promoting community awareness of responsible pet ownership. The shelter relies heavily on volunteers, donations, and community fundraising events to continue its work.
