Please be aware that the Heartland Humane Society
has a very limited physical facility/shelter at this time
that can only house a small number of cats.
We rely on our Foster Caregivers to provide homes
for some of the cats and all of the dogs that come under
our care.
We also post Lost/Missing pets & Found
animals on this site in hopes of finding their owners or
a new home.
Feel free to contact us by phone or by
email.

OUR FEATURED PET
Bella
is a cute little Guinea Pig! She
is used to being handled and makes the
cutest little giggly noises when you pet
her! She is 2-3 years old and has
her own cage. Her adoption fee is
$15 or $25 with the cage. Come meet Bella at the
shelter today!
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 Monday - Friday from 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
and by appointment in the evenings and on
weekends.
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.
The
Heartland Humane Society would like to thank the Yankton
Press & Dakotan for posting the Pet of the Week,
104.1
THE WOLF. for sponsoring the Pick-A-Pet spot,
Sally & Terry of Lewis and Clark Realty for sponsoring
the adoptable animal ads each month, and More Than Pets
Grooming Salon for graciously donating space to us for
our shelter.
Alleviate the financial stress associated with your pet’s
unexpected medical expenses and generate funds for our
shelter at the same time! Simply apply for a ShelterCare Pet
Insurance Program by using the ShelterCare banner-link.
Here’s how it works: ShelterCare Pet Insurance Programs
cover you when your pet needs essential veterinary care from
an illness or injury. Also, every time a completed
application for a ShelterCare program is generated through
our shelter’s website, we automatically receive a $25
donation to help cover common needs like blankets, litter
and food. This donation is of no cost to you and provides us
with essential funds. Make the right move and enroll today!
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 in this way,
please consider becoming a foster home.
With a limited facility, we rely completely on these
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.
