Stray Hold Per Wisconsin State Statute 173.21

Per Wisconsin State Statute 173.21:

Fond du Lac Humane Society holds animals for a period of 4 days, plus 1 for the day of intake – 5 days total. After the hold has lapsed, ownership of the animal is transferred to the Fond du Lac Humane Society and the animal can begin their journey to adoption.

Since the Fond du Lac Humane Society is closed on Sundays and holidays if the stray hold was to follow on either of these days, we would add an extra day. 

If you have any questions please call the shelter. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
