Shelter FAQs

We are a division of the Spotsylvania Sheriff Office. We are striving for "No Kill," our mission began in September 2013. We house all animals, appropriate, that are collected by Spotsylvania Deputies or county/city residents. The Live Release Rate has stayed over the No-Kill average of 90% every year since the mission began. For more information, please feel free to contact us!
We serve Spotsylvania County and City of Fredericksburg. We all adopt our animals to surrounding jurisdictions. For more information call 540-507-7459.

Additional adoption info

Adoption Fees: Dogs-$85.00* Cats-$55.00* Small Animals-$20.00 Livestock-$65.00 * This fee includes Spay/Neuter procedure, a 1 year Rabies Vaccine and a heart-worm test(for dogs). Spotsylvania County Animal Shelter only adopts to Spotsylvania County Residents if the animal is under 16 weeks of age. If you live in any other county or another state, the animal must be altered before leaving Spotsylvania Animal Shelter. All adoptions are based on a first-come first-serve baisis on the day the animal is available. You must be at least 18 years of age and provide a current ID. Also, if you have other pets or children, we suggest that you bring them in to visit before adoption. Most of our animals are strays and we can only guess by observing the behavior of the animal in the kennel/cage and interaction by the shelter staff, whether they are good with other animals or children.
