Rivers and Bluffs Animal Shelter will be a passionate advocate that will provide quality care for companion animals in need as we seek their forever homes and educate the community about responsible pet ownership. 

One Enchanted Evening!

Rivers and Bluffs Animal Shelter is happy to announce One Enchanted Evening!


For years we have hosted Princess For An Evening, and it was a father, grandfather, etc. and little girl dance. Every year we had moms asking if they could bring their daughters if they didn't have male role model in their life, or we were asked if we would ever do a dance for little boys. Well we listened, and made some changes!


One Enchanted Evening will be a family dance night for either an adult, and their "date," or parents, and their kids. Tickets will be $35, and this will include a fun night of memories, dancing, games, cake, and other snacks. The dance will be held at The Dousman House starting 6:30pm - 8:30pm on Saturday, April 20th. Tickets can be bought during business hours at the following places: Rivers and Bluffs Animal Shelter, Mississippi Meats, Tender Care Animal Hospital, Southwest Vet in Prairie du Chien, Exit Realty in Prairie du Chien, and HS Salon.

Cans for Critters!

Cans for Critters is an ongoing fundraiser that we have all year round. Bags of aluminum cans (only pop cans, and beer cans please!) can be placed in the wire cage outside the shelter anytime.
