Rehoming Help & More!

While behavior problems are one of the leading causes pets are surrendered to shelters, these problems can typically be resolved through training and management. South Suburban Humane Society's Behavior Helpline is a FREE consultation service for anyone having problems with their pets. Our goal is to help keep pets where they are happiest- in their homes. 

 This free service is available to all pet owners that are experiencing behavior problems with their cats and dogs. Our behavior specialists are available to answer questions and provide solutions on everything from separation distress to aggression. To contact our behavior specialists, simply call 312-645-8253 or email behavior@anticruelty.org. 

Find your pet a loving home, yourself.  Skip the shelters and the overstressed rescues that are full.

The online pet adoption community to connect  adopters with those that need to rehome animals.

A temporary haven, until you can bring your pet home.

 There are shelters/rescues that specialize in specific ages, breeds, behaviors, and medical conditions. 

Chicagoland Rescue Intervention and Support Program (“CRISP”) provides low or no-cost services to help Chicago pet owners keep their pets rather than surrendering them to the city shelter. Keeping pets with owners that loves them not only preserves the human animal bond, but helps our animal control reserve their limited resources for pets that truly need them. 

Bridging the gap between the cost of medical care and saving the family pet.
