Wisconsin Humane Society

Veterinary- The veterinary department performed 93,702 veterinary exams and 8,688 animals received medical treatment beyond routine care. They served 8,407 animals at our vaccine clinics. They performed 19,457 sterilization surgeries including 7,997 surgeries at the spay/neuter clinic. All dogs, cats and rabbits were sterilized prior to placing them in adoption. Dogs and cats were also microchipped prior to adoption. All animals were given the care needed to ensure they were healthy before adoption.

Community relations and outreach- Our youth programs play an essential role in engaging young people ages 2-18 in our mission. From scout nights to afterschool programs and camps, we served 7,676 young people. Each program is designed to strengthen the human animal bond and engage our next generation of pet owners. The Pets for Life outreach program serves families in Milwaukee's 53206 zip code and surrounding neighborhoods, where families face many barriers to accessing important services for their pets. The community we serve doesn't have a veterinary clinic. Through door-to-door outreach we reached 3,555 families and provided 870 no cost spay/neuter surgeries. We also provided free vaccinations, flea treatments, collars, crates, medication, and supplies to the animals in our focus community.
