If all shelters put this much time and effort into the dogs shelters would not have a bad name, they truly care about the welfare of the dogs even if aggressive they don't give up on them

Questions & Answers

Can you drop a cat or dog off anytime

Christina Banner | Oct 22, 2021
John P | Oct 22, 2021

You have to call ahead of time. Currently Oct 7, 2021, 4pm, they are unable to take cats, there are no cages open and they have 30 cats pending surrender, in the community, per female and male staff encountered on Thursday at our shelter. Was referred to Sullivan County, where I left a message yesterday, they haven't called back yet.

Do you euthanize pets for the general public? The vets I talk to won't let me be with my 11.5 yr old and I don't want him to be alone.

Nope TF*out | Oct 22, 2021

I'm not sure about Erwin or if they euthanize there, honestly. I do know the Jonesborough Animal Hospital near the old flea market is where we had to put our dog to sleep about 10 years ago, and they let one of us stay with her so she wasn't alone. I'm sorry you're both going through this, as a pet is your best friend for life. I agree they don't EVER deserve to have to pass alone. Also, the Dry Creek animal hospital has a very nice and sweet vet there. Try calling her.

What if u dont want your animal to be fixed

Savannah Hughes | Oct 23, 2019
Karen S | Oct 23, 2019

Best to call them.

If a cat or a dog hasn't been fixed and u are interested in adopting it how long does it take before you can bring it home

Savannah Hughes | Oct 23, 2019
Terri Shelton | Oct 23, 2019

When you adopt they will let you know when to bring it back for the spay or neuter clinic. So when you adopt a dog or a cat they go home with you.

Is this pound open on Christmas eve and Christmas day also can u adopt a cat or dog and get it that day plz get back to me thx

Savannah Hughes | Oct 23, 2019
Steven Hager | Oct 23, 2019

I don't think they are open Christmas eve or Christmas day. You can however adopt a cat or dog and take it home the same day if it is ready for adoption. (Meaning it's been fixed and has been given all its shots and chip)
