**OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AT HALF OCCUPANCY**

Due to current recommendations from the CDC and the State of North Carolina regarding COVID-19, the shelter will be allowing public in at half occupancy, if our lobby has the maximum number of individuals we will ask new arrivals to wait outside. To arrange an appointment for adoption, rabies vaccines, animal intake, and for all other questions, please call 704-878-5424 and follow the prompts provided. If you are in need of assistance from an animal control officer, please call animal control dispatch at 704-878-5335.

Please do your part to keep our community safe and do not make an appointment if you or any of your family members are sick.
