Animal Shelters in Idaho
Idaho has 102 listed animal shelters and rescue organizations, spread across 23 counties. About half are animal shelters. Boise has more than any other Idaho city, followed by Idaho Falls and Lewiston. There is no shortage of choice in Idaho — old dogs, shy cats, and a fair few who will pick you first.
Idaho has 102 listed at the moment, and they are shown above with the ones that have photos first. Open any of them for the full address, contact details and opening hours.
A mix of both, and the difference is worth knowing before you set out. A rescue usually places animals from a network of foster homes rather than from premises you can walk into, so you generally arrange a meeting first. A shelter or humane society more often has a facility you can visit during opening hours.
Boise has more than anywhere else in Idaho, followed by Idaho Falls, Lewiston and Twin Falls. They are the usual place to start if you are willing to travel; the sidebar links straight through to each.
Ada, Bonner and Bonneville counties have the most, though listings reach 23 of Idaho's counties in total. The city links in the sidebar are usually the quicker way in.
Most listings here carry a phone number, and most link to the organization's own website. Calling ahead is worth it — opening hours change, and rescues often work by appointment rather than keeping a building open.
