Assistance For Lake County
Animal Shelter

The Lake County Animal Shelter is a temporary home for animals. This shelter preserves the life of healthy and treatable animals. The shelter is currently home to 25-30 cats and dogs. It is located in the poorest County in Michigan. Perhaps it could be said better. The resources it take to maintain a viable facility such as the shelter are extremely necessary, especially since Lake County’s resources are well below average.

The average animal is interned at the shelter for 1-2 years, to 2-8 months depending on the breed. Smaller animals tend to get adopted faster than the larger ones.The median cost is about $16.00 per day to house only the canines. The facility located at 3390 S. Dog Track Rd. in Baldwin, MI could use financial support, to hire staff, supply medicine for sick animals and enlarge the facility. Like any organization entrusted with serving the public health, funds are essential to its well-being and survival.

Residents can adopt these loving animals by filling out an Adoption Application. After completing the Adoption Application, it will be reviewed within one to two days. An officer will contact applicants via phone or email in regards to approval /denial. Improve your community and public health by supporting your local Animal Shelter. 231-745-3079.
