If you have a stray animal or an animal that
you would like to find a new home for,
please call the shelter before bringing it
in so we can ensure appropriate space and
resources are available to care for the
animal.
Heartland Humane Society is a private
501(c)3 non-profit organization. We rely on
donations from supporters like you to help
the animals of the communities that we
serve. We do not receive funding from
and are not associated with any city, county
or state government agencies, the Humane
Society of the United States, or the United
Way.
As of 2011, we are a licensed animal shelter
in the state of Nebraska. All of our animals
receive proper vet care, including
vaccinations and prevention of common pet
diseases and infections. We test for
Heartworm in our canines and feline leukemia
in our felines.
~OUR FEATURED PETS~
Pepper is an 8-month old female
black lab. Still just a pup, she is
looking for a home that wants to
play and has plenty of energy to
give to her. She is very loving and
seems to be mostly housetrained.
Check her out
Adopt Pepper for $100.
If you love black cats, HHS is
paradise for you right now! During
the month of May, adopt any of our
black cats for
$40.
On average, black cats stay at
animals shelters far longer than any
other cat. Help spread the word on
these black beauties and give them
great homes!
If you have a love of animals and would like to
help in some way, we have a great need to
increase our foster family network. If you
have a place in your heart and your home to
help, please consider becoming a foster
home. With a limited facility, we rely
completely on wonderful families who open
up their homes to animals in need. Check out the
Fostering
page for more details. If you would like more
information, please give us a call at
605-664-4244 or email us at
hhs@midconetwork.com.
Heartland Humane Society is a limited
admissions shelter, which means that we take
in animals by appointment and only when
appropriate space and resources are
available to care for them. We are
located at 601 1/2 Burleigh Street in
Yankton. Our regular business hours
are Mondays, Tuesday, Wednesdays, and
Fridays from 10AM -5PM; Thursdays from
12PM-7PM and Saturday from
9 AM - 1 PM.
We
believe everyone should spend time with
their pet before adoption.
Please be sure to come in and plan to spend
at least 20 minutes with your pet of choice.
Adoption paperwork takes approximately 20-30
minutes.
If you are coming in to adopt,
please arrive
no later than 30 minutes prior to close.
Thank you!
