The Western Fremont County Pet Shelter is a small foster-based group that operates a holding facility. We nurture orphaned cats and dogs, until we can find them a fur-ever home.
The Western Fremont County Humane Society Pet Shelter is committed to the health and welfare of all animals. We seek to inform, inspire, and assist people to responsibly care for their pets and to treat them with kindness.
For over 25 years we have been serving the needs of animals and owners in the Dubois and Crowheart areas. Our volunteers provide foster homes for pets in need and keep watch at the animal shelter when needed.
We keep shelves of cat and dog food available at the Community Food Bank (donations always welcome).
We have built and maintain the new Gizmo’s Dog Park, east of town, using part of a bequest left by Rick Schwinn, Gizmo’s owner. The facility includes a livestock shelter and corral as well as hiking trails.
Gizmo’s Dog Park is located at 26 Gilliland Ave on east edge of Dubois (behind East Fork Vet Clinic).
Working with several Fremont County veterinarians we do all we can to save lives as well as spay and neuter those waiting to be adopted. Animal medical cost sharing with Western Fremont County residents is provided through applications available on this website or at Dubois Town Hall. The feral cat Trap, Fix and Return program is ongoing work – saving lives and avoiding unwanted kittens.
Regularly published ads in the local press and our Petfinder page help us find fur-ever homes for all the animals in our care. In the warmer months we sponsor events such as the vaccination clinic with East Fork Veterinary Clinic, the dog washes, and the Strutt Your Mutt Fun Dog Match.
