We are in crisis mode.

 

706-695-8003

jw...@murraycountyga.gov

 

We have taken in over 70 hounds from a hoarding situation — on top of our normal daily animal control intakes. We only have 11 kennels. Right now, we are safely housing 70+ hounds in a space meant for a fraction of that number.

 

We are out of room.

We are out of time.

 

💔 If we do not secure placements, we will have to begin euthanizing on Friday to reduce numbers and continue basic operations for our community.

 

🐾 WE NEED RESCUES WHO ARE READY TO HELP

 

We are pleading for committed, action-ready rescues who can step up without requiring endless videos, repeated testing, or excessive back-and-forth. We understand due diligence — but in a crisis of this scale, speed saves lives and we do not have the staff or time to handle all these requests. We need rescues willing to commit. 

 

If you are a licensed rescue willing to pull:

 

No fee

 

Transport assistance available within reason for rescues committing to 4 or more hounds

 

🏡 ADOPTION INFORMATION

 

❤️ Spayed/Neutered Hounds

 

• Adoption fee WAIVED to approved homes

 

💙 Unaltered Hounds — $150

Includes:

 

Spay/Neuter surgery

 

Microchip

 

Rabies vaccine

 

DAPPV vaccine

 

Bordetella vaccine

 

🌎 Out-of-State Adopters:

Fee waived with proof of a paid-in-full spay/neuter appointment at your veterinarian.

 

All known information about each dog is listed on their individual photos.

 

They are sweet, social, and simply have never known stability. They deserve couches instead of concrete, patience instead of panic, and families instead of deadlines.

 

⏳ TIME IS CRITICAL

 

We do not want to euthanize for space.

We are fighting for them — but we cannot do this alone.

 

If you are a rescue that can commit, or an adopter ready to open your home, please come to the shelter. Licensed rescues may email director at jw...@murraycountyga.gov 

 

Shelter hours are M-F 8-4.
