This place is absolutely amazing! Not only did I adopt from them, they were also kind enough to help when I had a stray litter of kittens. Everyone should visit them🥰 all of the staff are great

I would think that you could be a big help for the fur babies & staff! Walking pup-pups, feeding, loving, etc... Alexia is the best one to speak to about volunteering sweetie & Happy Holidays!

Lisa Rice | Oct 31, 2020
Joshua Feathers | Oct 31, 2020

Yes you can. Have you tried training it not to bite or growl?

I have a dog I'm looking to take him to a no kill shelter would this be a good place hes been hit by a car and has a bad hip problem I just dont want him put down

Briana Thompson | Oct 31, 2020
Kathy Craft | Oct 31, 2020

I don't think the shelter can take injured animals directly.but,I'm not sure.maybe if there's no problem with the dog thats needing medical care.i would call first since,they rely on donations only.

Is there anyway to place a cat on hold? I’m very interested in purchasing a cat from there but I’m not wanting to risk someone else getting the cat.

Stevie Brown | Oct 31, 2020
Allison Miller | Oct 31, 2020

The owner is easy to work with so I suggest going by in person and starting the paperwork process.

Unfortunately we are at max capacity at the moment if you call us we can put you on a waiting list but that's the best we can do.

If a person under 18 wants to volunteer does the parent need to volunteer as well?

Jazlyn Coleman | Oct 31, 2020
Anna Fields | Oct 31, 2020

I don't have a definite answer for u but as a level 7 travel guide on here I decided to go through the reviews and there has been some harsh stuff said about the manager or someone named Regina. I would do my homework on the place first and visit there before making any final decisions. Good luck sweetie and I would just call or go by and ask for an answer to ur question about volunteering

always told myself I would never be the person to give away my dog. Nomatter what. I’ve had her for 6 years- she has been my best friend for that long. We’ve tried to make it work for a year and a half now and she just cannot handle well with small children. It breaks my heart. I will be very diligent to find her the best home. Thank y’all for your help!

Robin Lowery | Nov 1, 2018
Justin Thyme | Nov 1, 2018

They have 60-70 cats currently and sadly cannot accept more at this time. I recommend posting a photo of the kitty to the Sullivan County Animal Shelter Facebook's page and the volunteers will share it out to find it a home asap! Thanks so much for caring about the kitty!! There needs to be more people like you!

Call them first. I know that recently they have reached capacity with Cats but I am not sure about Dogs. If I had a little more space and less animals, I'd take him in myself.

My neighbors have a dog tied up outside, that I worry is being neglected. From what I know, his name is Zeus, he's still a puppy, and he is a mixed breed. We can see his ribs, so idk if they give him food or water. I don't really know what to do.

Crying Withtacos | Oct 31, 2021
The Bridge Home No Kill Animal Rescue | Oct 31, 2021

The best thing to do right now is to contact your local animal control officer. They should send someone out to assess the situation and take it from there.

Krystal Ball | Oct 31, 2020
Karie Young | Oct 31, 2020

You'll need to call and see if they're accepting new cats, when I went there last weekend they wasn't because of a virus or something that one of the cats had.

My family and I took in a red nose pitbull name zeus, his previous owner said they had to get rid of him because his landlord. We believe he has been abused and we cant seem to get him past his struggles, were not sure what else we can do.

Christopher Teneyck | Oct 31, 2020
Christopher Teneyck | Oct 31, 2020

He is generally a very sweet dog but anytime he does something he knows he shouldnt he immediately gets overly defensive, and this is before we even tell him no sometimes. This behavior is just to risky for us to have around our 4 year old daughter. I believe he needs someone to be 1 on 1 with, he doesnt deserve to be killed because of his anxiety

Can you take some cats? I live close to a garbbage dumpers they came here I just had surgey they need a home. It's hot outside and they want in I feel sorry for them. Please Thanks Linda.

Brandon Kindle | Oct 31, 2020

Call the closest no kill shelter like the one above. You could either take him there or they may come and get him for ya. If u would like to adopt the dog, tell them ahead of time. That way the owner has a fair amount of time to find and claim their dog first. They can give you all the info you need to do what's best for the dog
