Humane Society of Rock County

Information may not be reliable

Looking for your new best friend? Here you’ll find dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and more, all of them anxious to meet you...all of them looking for homes to call their own, and every one of them deserving of a second chance. Please take your time browsing and check back regularly as there are always new animals arriving at the shelter who might be the perfect match for you!

RCHS is a private, non-profit animal shelter supported almost entirely by donations from generous people like you. We are not a government agency nor are we funded by tax dollars. Learn more about the many ways to support our homeless animals through membership, memorials, sponsorships, donations, and more!

Volunteers are critical to the success of Rock County Humane Society. Learn more about volunteer opportunities, including animal care and socialization, customer service and administrative support, and special events.

RCHS is the stray holding facility for most municipalities located in Rock County. Search here for your missing pet and hopefully make a happy reunion!
