Animal shelter in Ladysmith, WI

The Rusk County Animal Shelter in Ladysmith, Wi, is a full service shelter, though we do not provide most veterinary services to the public. We shelter, and provide supportive care for stray and un-wanted domestic animals until they can be reunited with their owners, or adopted by new families. We accept surrendered animals when we have space available.
