Star of the North's Mission and Vision
Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home companion animals while educating the public. Our vision is a world which all animals are loved and respected by everyone.
Our History
Star
of the North Humane Society/Animal Shelter started helping animals in 1978; we
officially organized in 1980. For more than 31 years, we have served Itasca
County, as well as areas of bordering counties where there are no available
animal shelters or humane societies. Star of the North is a no-kill facility;
time limits are not placed on an animal's stay. Our focus is to rescue animals
that are homeless or lost, abused or neglected. We tend to their physical and
emotional needs while in our care, spay or neuter and vaccinate them, then find
loving, forever homes for them. Through the unwavering dedication of a small
group of volunteers and part-time caretakers, every year several hundred
companion animals are placed in homes or reunited with their families. Due to a
continuing pet overpopulation crisis, however, our shelter is always filled with
many wonderful dogs, cats, puppies and kittens waiting for loving, forever
homes.
