Animal Shelters in North Dakota
North Dakota has 41 listed animal shelters and rescue organizations, spread across 12 counties. About half are animal shelters. Fargo has more than any other North Dakota city, followed by Dickinson and Minot. Most keep a building open to visitors, so an afternoon is usually enough to know.
North Dakota has 41 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.
Mostly shelters and humane societies, 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.
Fargo has more than anywhere else in North Dakota, followed by Dickinson, Minot and Grand Forks. They are the usual place to start if you are willing to travel; the sidebar links straight through to each.
Cass, Stark and Ward counties have the most, though listings reach 12 of North Dakota'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.
