Copper Country Humane Society

Love this shelter. They were super nice and helpful during my process adopting my best friend (Guyzer) and I love stopping by to walk the dogs periodically. The staff goes above and beyond for the animals at cchs. :)

I might be biased because I work there, but I absolutely love this place. We are a no kill shelter, and we try to do absolutely everything we can for our animals. Every animal is given a chance, even if they have medical or behavioral problems. We also try to do what we can to help people in the community as well. Typically twice per year we offer a low cost vaccination clinic.

Whenever possible we get a grant to help people get their animals spayed or neutered for a reduced cost. During our open hours we also encourage volunteers to come in and walk dogs and cuddle with cats. That is not only great for our animals, but it can be therapeutic for people as well. I love this place so much.

It is with great disappointment that I need to give this organization, which has a great cause and I'm sure does great work, a one star. The reasons being that I was interested in adopting a dog and was willing to wait to adopt her as she was not ready yet, I understood it may be a while and was okay with this. However, after several attempts to call and email to get an update, the shelter never got a hold of me and the dog was gone. Still after months, there has been no out reach so I will not be looking at this shelter again.

You can't see the dogs you have to pick out the dog on the computer so you see a cute dog how do you know about its personality that is the only dog you can see the person who contacted me outside was not very cordial they would like to see dogs adopted and taking home for permanent homes in Houghton county but they're not very cooperative. I believe in helping and supporting humane societies but I will contribute to dogs places elsewhere I had an appointment but the person in charge would not let us in

I love CCHS so much. Everyone that works there is so nice and they put their all into ensuring that each and every animal has the care and treatment they need. My fiance and I adopted two cats from there recently and toys, food, and all of their vet documentation was included. We love our new little family members!

I love coming here to walk dogs and pet cats in the cat room. Seems like a nice, friendly humane society. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. If I was looking to adopt a dog, I'd absolutely look here.

This is a great humane society, they take really good care of all the animals and are happy to have people help socialize the animals. I got my previous cat from them and it was a good experience.

Animals appeared healthy and mostly clean. Some were particularly curious and alert. There were 3 small dogs and about 8 large dogs. There were about 15 cats. 3 were allowed to roam in the room. Wide variety of ages, breeds, colors, and temperament. Staff was friendly and seemed to care about the animals. Cat room was stinky, but I am not used to cats and litter boxes.

Dog areas were clean with softness to lie down Plus food and water. Most were barking. A few were scared or overwhelmed. Great volunteer walking program accommodating to nearby students of MTU. A shuttle from the university would be helpful. I noticed lots of carpooling. Impressively active shelter with access to trails, well-marked. Appropriate rules in place for the walkers. I had a much better experience than I have ever had at other facilities!

I loved going there while I was living in Houghton. The staff is friendly and there are always animals to visit. The cat room has plenty of toys to use to interact with the cats, and you are able to the walk the dogs. Great for volunteering and team bonding events, as well.

We have adopted 2 cats and 1 dog from here. The staff is outstanding. We described our situation to them and they recommended the perfect animals for our family. These pets have become dear family members. If you are looking for the right pet, talk to the staff here. They know the animals well and will make the perfect match for you!
