Business Description
Come fall in love with your Best Friend. “One can measure the greatness and the moral progress of a nation by looking at how it treats its animals” Mahatma Gandhi
We are a municipal facility owned and operated by The City of Crossville and Cumberland County. Only animals brought in by City/County Animal Control Officers are accepted. We ARE NOT ANIMAL CONTROL, we are a completely separate entity. We CANNOT DISPATCH ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICERS.
Unfortunately, we are a kill shelter but we work with many heroic volunteers to find rescues and transport to no-kill shelters.
When adopting a pet please keep in mind your lifestyle.
If you do not have time to properly groom a long-haired animal,
for example, look for an animal with a short care-free coat.
For more adoption tips visit this Petfinder link. Before You Adopt
