Mower County Humane Society
A Second Chance for Every Pet
The Mower County Humane Society is dedicated to providing care and shelter to homeless dogs and cats in Mower County until they find their perfect forever homes. We are committed to reducing the number of unwanted animals by actively promoting, facilitating, and sponsoring spaying and neutering activities.
Our History and Mission
Founded in 1950 in Austin, Minnesota, we are a fully independent, non-profit, and no-kill shelter. Our operations are powered by a dedicated team of volunteers and rely on the generosity of public donations to support our mission of compassionate animal care.
Providing Comfort and Care
Our shelter facility is designed to provide a safe and welcoming environment for animals while they wait for their new families. Our passionate team of volunteers works daily to ensure every resident receives proper nutrition, cleaning, and individual attention, helping them feel secure and loved during their stay.
Building Lifelong Friendships
We believe that a successful adoption is a partnership built on thoughtful matching. Our team takes the time to get to know each animal’s unique personality, helping us guide you toward a pet that fits your family's lifestyle, living conditions, and expectations. We are here to support you throughout the transition, ensuring a positive experience for both you and your new best friend.
