We strive to find these loving animal's their forever homes. Please consider taking a peek at our animals when you are ready to add a new furry friend to your family! We would love to hear from you if you have any questions about our animals or what we do as the Powhatan Sheriff's Office Animal Control Division. We do recommend calling ahead and letting us know when you would like to come, but if you come in between 9am and 4pm, that will be perfectly fine! We look forward to meeting you and helping you find the perfect fit for your family.
