During your shelter appointment, staff will be happy to give you a tour and introduce you to the pets, help you complete the adoption process, discuss volunteer opportunities, and accept donations.
Gently used items such as towels, blankets, pet toys, crates, leashes, collars, etc., in addition to pet food items (like canned food and treats) can be donated at the shelter. Donated dry pet food is not used by the shelter since pets are fed one brand of dry food to help reduce gastric upsets, but is re-donated to other charitable organizations. If you need a donation receipt, please call (804) 580-6156 to set up a drop-off time with shelter staff, so you can receive your receipt. Donations should be placed in the donation shed (located next to the shelter); please close the door after depositing your donation.
