Animal Control
Midland County Animal Control is managed by the Midland County Sheriff’s Office Administration. The Animal Control Department has one full time Animal Control Deputy to respond to animal related complaints, concerns, or questions regarding animal laws.
Since January 1, 2011, the Humane Society of Midland County, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, operates the Humane Society of Midland County Shelter at 4371 East Ashman Street.
If you're looking to adopt a pet, you can see pictures and read the descriptions of currently available animals here.
More information can be found at the Midland County Humane Society's website or by calling (989) 835-1877.
All dogs are required, by law, to be licensed within the county they reside within 30 days of turning four (4) months of age, or within 30 days of acquiring a dog older than four months or within 30 days of moving to Midland County. If the dog is not licensed in a timely manner, a $20 delinquent fee will be assessed. The Midland County Dog License Program includes one-year and three-year licenses available for purchase throughout the year. Licenses should be renewed by the last day of the month in which the rabies vaccination expires. To qualify for a three-year license the dog must have received a new three-year rabies vaccination within the past 30 days.
Licenses are conveniently available at many area veterinarian offices and by mail or in-person at the Midland County Treasurer’s Office. View a complete list HERE
