      <Desc>Sheltering and animal care- The client services department successfully placed 11,825 dogs, cats and small animals into loving homes. Through its comprehensive adoption program, the counselors work with families to match them with homeless companion animals. They provide follow up and support to new adopters. They also assist callers with information related to training and health issues for their companion animals. The behavior department provided behavior assessments for dogs and cats to determine eligibility for placement in the adoption program. They provided in person and online training in group classes and workshops. They also managed and supported behaviorally challenged dogs and cats through in shelter behavior modification and in home support programs. Our wildlife rehabilitation center is the largest center in the state in terms of annual admits and is one of the largest in the nation. We annually care for over 4,000 injured, sick and orphaned wild animals of about 150 different species. Our goal is to rescue, rehabilitate and return them to the wild.</Desc>

        <Desc>Community relations and outreach- Our youth programs play an essential role in engaging young people ages 2-18 in our mission. From scout nights to afterschool programs and camps, we served 6,709 young people. Each program is designed to strengthen the human animal bond and engage our next generation of pet owners. The Pets for Life outreach program serves families in Milwaukee's 53206 zip code and surrounding neighborhoods, where families face many barriers to accessing important services for their pets. The community we serve doesn't have a veterinary clinic. Through door-to-door outreach we reached 3,326 families and provided 981 free spay/neuter surgeries. We also provided free vaccinations, flea treatments, collars, crates, other medications and supplies to the animals in our focus community.</Desc>

        <ExplanationTxt>Footnote from the audited financial statements-In order to account for any uncertain tax positions, the organization determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination on the technical merits of the position, assuming the taxing authority has full knowledge of all information. If the tax position does not meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, the benefit of that position is not recognized in the financial statements. The organization recorded no assets or liabilities related to uncertain tax positions for the years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.</ExplanationTxt>
