Circle of Friends Animal Shelter
Our Mission
At Circle of Friends Animal Shelter, our mission is to enrich the lives of pets through healing, education, and connecting companions. We are dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing environment for animals in need, ensuring every pet has the best possible chance for a happy and healthy future.
Our Commitment to Animals
Serving the Grand Forks community, we strive to be a beacon of hope for animals facing uncertain beginnings. Whether they are recovering from injury, awaiting a forever home, or needing extra care, our team is committed to providing a space where pets are treated with the dignity and compassion they deserve.
How We Provide Care
Our work is made possible through a blend of dedicated on-site shelter care and a robust foster program. By welcoming animals into foster homes, we can provide specialized care for those who are pregnant, injured, or simply need extra time to adjust in a loving, home-like setting while they wait for their new families.
The Joy of Adoption
We believe in the power of meaningful connections, and our adoption team is here to help you find the perfect partner for your family. During your visit, we facilitate thoughtful meet and greets to ensure that the personality and needs of our animals align perfectly with your lifestyle, fostering a bond that lasts a lifetime.
