We are committed to doing this the right way and saving as many dogs as we can along the way. We can`t save them all, but we save as many as we can.
The Webster County Animal Shelter is a County run Taxpayer funded facility. We do on occasion have to euthanize some dogs for health or aggression issues, but we have been "NO KILL" since 2016. We ask that you consider adopting from us and save a life in the process! We do not take any Cats at this time. We do not have a place to house them.

🐾 We Need Your Input! 🐾
We’ve been brainstorming ways to make it easier for the community to visit the shelter — whether that’s volunteering, spending time with the dogs, or coming by to adopt your new best friend. ❤️
One idea we’re considering is keeping the shelter open later one or two evenings a week — but we’d love YOUR feedback before we make any changes!
👉 What evenings would work best for you?
👉 Would later hours (after 4 PM) make it easier for you to visit, volunteer, or adopt?
👉 And what time do you think we should stay open until — 6 PM? 7 PM?
Your opinions matter, and your feedback helps us make the shelter more welcoming and accessible for everyone! 🐶🐾

💔 HELP KIA SEE THE WORLD CLEARLY AGAIN 💔
Sweet Kia needs our help. This beautiful girl came to Webster County Animal Care & Control with a painful eye condition that requires surgery as soon as possible. Without it, she’ll continue to live in discomfort — but with it, she’ll finally be pain-free and able to see clearly again. 🐾
We’re raising funds to cover her eye surgery and recovery costs. Every dollar helps — whether it’s $5, $10, or more, your support makes all the difference.
Kia is such a gentle soul who’s been through so much already. Let’s come together to give her the bright, healthy future she deserves. 💖

Sweet Sassy was adopted but was brought back less than 24 hours later. 💔 Sometimes things don’t work out, and that’s okay — but it’s a reminder that adopting a puppy means teaching, patience, and time. Puppies need guidance, crate training, and structure as they learn what’s right and wrong.
Sassy is only 7 months old — a goofy, loving hound mix who’s great with other dogs 🐶, wonderful with kids 🧒, and just full of puppy personality. She hasn’t been cat tested yet, but she’s eager to please and quick to learn.
✨ Her adoption fee is SPONSORED, and she’ll be spayed before adoption!
Interested in giving this sweet girl the real forever home she deserves? You can adopt or foster-to-adopt using the link below ⬇️
Let’s get this beautiful girl into a home that’s ready for love, learning, and loyalty. 💕

The Webster County Animal Shelter is a County run Taxpayer funded facility. We are a "No kill " Shelter, unfortunately we do on occasion have to euthanize some dogs , because of health or Temperament issues . We ask that you consider adopting from us and save a life in the process! We do not take any Cats at this time. We do not have a place to house them.
We have a 5000 square foot facility located in Dixon that was built in 2014. This new facility allows us to house up to 50 animals at a time with out doubling them up. It also makes it possible to house them longer. We keep healthy animals until they are rescued or adopted.We have rescue partners that pull dogs on a regular basis to help make space for other animals.
Starting in September of 2015 we partnered with PetSmart Charities to start a Rescue program. We have since received over $100,000 in grant money to fund that program. It allows us to partner with Rescue groups from Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois and Indiana. All of these groups receive healthy vaccinated animals from us and find them homes. Sometimes they find a home with in a few days.
We are only a staff of 2 full time employees, but we are dedicated to saving as many of these animals that we can. Webster County Animal Care and Control is a safe place for the homeless dogs of Webster County. We will always do our best to care for the animals that are housed in our facility.
In late 2019 our supporters formed a friends of the shelter group to help support the dogs in our shelter. This group is called WebCo Pawsitive Solutions. We are excited about this partnership and can’t wait to see what the future brings. WPS will be fundraising for our dogs and helping to find them homes as well as establishing a group of volunteers to help at the shelter.
We have had a Live Release of 90% or better since 2016. That is because of great Rescue Partners like the Love Train. We are very pleased that since 2014 we have completely turned around what was once an awful situation and made it into a great place for the homeless animals of our County. Unfortunate outcomes for dogs are very few these days. We are very grateful to our Rescue Partners and the community for their continued support to help make this shelter into what it has become.
