Do not forget to bring your pets inside when it is too cold outside. IF IT IS TOO COLD FOR YOU, IT IS TOO COLD FOR THEM! The law says: During cold weather, a dog shelter must have a windbreak at its entrance and have bedding material that is sufficient to protect the animal from cold and promote the retention of body heat.

We are trying to build our volunteer program.
The shelter dogs can always use volunteers to bath, to walk and to communicate with them. If you are interested in helping the animals, please contact us.
Who we are
Patrick County Animal Control provides for the safety and welfare of residents and follows county ordinances as they apply to domestic animals.
The County operates the Hazel Y. Clark Patrick County Public Animal Shelter, a shelter for the specialized care of animals in custody.
Animal Control enforces Virginia state code Section 3.2-6574 that all animals are to be sterilized upon adoption. The shelter
provides temporary care for homeless or unwanted animals until they are adopted, placed with an animal rescue organization, or
euthanized. The shelter provides assistance in locating lost or stolen pets.
For more information see the
Patrick County Animal Control website.
Lost your dog?
Stray dogs without identification are kept for 5 days before being put up for adoption. Dogs with identification are kept for 10 days before being put up for adoption. Contact the shelter to check whether your pet is there.
Some of the stray dogs are featured on the Paws Patrick VA Facebook Page but not all are put here so contact the shelter if you have lost your dog.
