News & Current Events

7-1-2009: Summertime Travel and Your Animals
Summer in Wisconsin is beautifully warm, but this is just a reminder that our cars can turn in to ovens very quickly under the hot sun! Please do not leave your animals or children in vehicles unattended for even a minute, as it can warm up to over a 100 degrees in a very short time! Animals and children do not have the skills to open windows or turn on the air conditioning system, so please keep this in mind if you decide to leave them in the car alone.

If you do notice that someone has left an animal or child in a car unattended, please call Countryside (in regards to animals) or your local police enforcement (in regards to children). We will do our best to help solve the situation and prevent any animal or child from suffering!

There is also a great website that will help us keep our dogs safe and cool this summer. http://www.mydogiscool.com/

If you are a business owner and would like to have a flyer on your entrance reminding people about the dangers of keeping animal or child in the car, please contact DJ at donaldjames@gmail.com. He will gladly help you obtain one.

All of the animals will receive medical attentions by a veterinarian this coming week. Countryside has received many....more

Countryside Humane Society is a non-profit organization that provides animal control, adoption and other community services for Racine County residents, and cares for approximately 4,400 animals each year. Serving all eighteen municipalities in Racine County.

Our mission is to provide animal control, adoptions, and other services to Racine County Residents. We care for lost, abandoned, stray, abused and surrendered animals. We provide humane care and treatment, and work to foster the well-being of all animals through education, information, investigation, and action.

Our Humane Officer has the authority to investigate abuse and neglect cases, seize animals and prosecute when necessary. We provide twenty-four hour pick-up of injured animals. We provide humane education to schools and interested groups. Educating the community on the value of neuter/spay, vaccinations and regular medical care, licensing, leashing, and more, are vital and continuing goals for the Shelter. Countryside Humane Society makes every effort to provide a safe, healthy environment for all animals, and to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.
