animal shelter
Welcome to the Pickens County, Georgia Animal Shelter
This animal shelter serves our north Georgia community with pet adoptions, reporting a stray pet that you have found, maybe you’ve lost a beloved animal. We also encourage you to volunteer with us.
Adopt a Pet
$20 for Cats & Kittens which covers vaccines, flea treatment, dewormer, microchip, and spay or neuter.
Lost a Pet or Find a Stray?
We add the information to our database and look for a match. If no match, we keep it on file in hope for a successful return to their human family.
Surrender a Pet
Pickens County Animal Shelter requires intake appointments to allow our staff to collect medical history and behavioral data about each incoming pet.
**Once surrendered no further information will be given to you about this animal.
Please complete BOTH of these steps:
Step 1 – Select the appropriate questionnaire and fill that out.
Step 2 – Click the button to access the animal surrender form. Print and bring with you to our facility when you bring the animal you would like to surrender.
