Welcome to the Animal Shelter of Northeast Nebraska

Our small but mighty Animal Shelter is located in the heart of the United States and for good reason. We help change the lives of unwanted, sick, and homeless pets every day and do our best to find them a loving home for life. ASNN started as a small group of foster families, and with the hard work and determination of our animal loving Board of Directors and Shelter Management, we have grown into a state of the art facility serving our city of Norfolk, its surrounding communities, and beyond! We take in local strays and surrenders, and bring in transfer animals from other shelters in Nebraska and other states.

Since ASNN opened in 2016, we have saved the lives of close to 4,000 animals! And every day that number grows along with our determination to continue our mission.

Animal Shelter of Northeast Nebraska not only helps animals in need, but also people in need by providing free services for youth pet education, support for Domestic Violence Victims, and assistance for Veterans and seniors.

Our organization is funded by donations from the public, we receive no city or state funding.
