Shelter FAQs

The HSJC is located in Jefferson, Wisconsin and is a small, privately run non-profit shelter that has been in operation since 1922. We recently celebrated our 90th year of caring for dogs, cats, birds and other small animals in need. Each year, close to 1,000 pets find sanctuary at our shelter. We put forth great effort to reunite owners with lost pets and to find good new homes for those who need a second chance. We do not impose a time limit on how long a healthy, adoptable animal may stay with us as they wait to be adopted.
We adopt to any location, provided you are able to come in and meet the animals. We provide stray housing for animals found in the following municipalities: Town of Aztalan, Town of Cold Spring, Town of Hebron, Town of Jefferson, Village of Johnson Creek, City of Lake Mills, Town of Lake Mills, Town of Oakland, Town of Sullivan, Village of Sullivan, Town of Sumner, City of Fort Atkinson, City of Jefferson.

Additional adoption info

**Please contact the shelter or visit our website at http://hsjc-wis.com for the most up-to-date information about our prices, policies, and procedures. The profile information is not regularly updated and as such we do not guarantee that the information listed here is current.**

An adoption application must be completed. Home ownership verification or landlord/condo association approval is required. For dogs, if there are any dogs currently living in the home, a scheduled and supervised interaction with the prospective dog is required. Additional requirements may apply depending upon the individual animal.

Upon adoption, the adopter is required to sign a contract agreeing to provide the animal with the care and medical treatment he or she needs throughout his or her life. They also must agree to provide the animal with an indoor home and if at any point in the animal's life the adopter is unable to keep the animal, the animal must be returned to the shelter.
