We are at capacity! We have very few kennels left open for stray dogs, and a great group of dogs here waiting for their perfect family.
We desperately need to find these dogs their forever homes in order to help more animals in our community.
We are offering $20 adoptions. Click here for more info.
WARNING - KEEP YOUR PETS SAFE. Late January through early March is mating season for Coyotes and being related to dogs they may regard your dog as a mate or a rival or dinner! Do not let your dogs out alone and do not allow your outdoor cats to roam. Coyote breeding typically peaks in late February and early March, the gestation period averages 58 to 63 days. Male Coyotes can become more aggressive during this time of year, the long and short of it all is that Coyotes always pose a risk to your dog and other small pets. That risk increases during mating season. Click here for more info.Donate to Giles County Animal Shelter

On behalf of the animals thank you. No Squeeky Toys Please
Toys that make a noise when you squeeze them can encourage some dogs to be aggressive towards young children because they squeek too. The device that makes the noise is usually small and can be harmful if swallowed. Some toys of this type contain a small battery which is poisonous if the dog eats it. The best toys are tuggers, tennis balls and hard chew toys that cannot be ripped apart. If you would like to drop off a donation, you can bring it to the County Administration Building,
130 North Main Street,
Pearisburg, VA 24134
