About Newberry County Animal Care and Control
We are a small group in a small rural town. Our shelter has only 6 employees, 1 manager, 2 officers and 1 adoption coordinator, and 2 part time Kennel Att.

With it only being 5 of us, we are always in need of volunteers and welcome anytime that is offered to us. Donations are always needed also, bleach, blankets, towels, dish detergant, laundry detergent, cleaners, cat and dog toys (washable), food and water bowls, canned food, dry food (puppy and adult). We all enjoy our jobs here and hold it dear to our hearts, we are blessed to be able to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
