Business Description
Monroe County, GA Animal Control Shelter Page
This page is dedicated to the missing,lost, stray, and unwanted dogs picked up by Monroe County Animal Control. It is our goal to reunite lost and missing dogs with their owners, and to find homes for all others. Unfortunately we take in aggressive dogs who will not be posted on our page, but will be available for reclaim only after descriptive positive ID. Also unfortunately there is a lag time between the dogs intake date and the date of their photo appearing on our page. We have one Animal Control Officer and one Shelter Manager, the 2 of us run all calls, pick ups, clean/feed/water all impound dogs, make trips to the vet, handle all phone calls, adoptions, and rescues. At times we are too busy to get photographs and load them on our page, but we do put them up as time allows us. Please share the photos of our Adoptable Dogs, you never know who may see them and make a life long fur friend match.
