Lancaster County Animal Shelter

We are a county run facility with 46 runs. We take in strays, and owner surrenders of Lancaster County. Our main goal here at the shelter is to save as MANY lives as we can. Every animal that is brought to us, we treat it like it is our own, and work to make sure that animal has the best life/home when it leaves here.
