Woof! Meow! One thing before you go…
Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!

Adoptable Pets in North Carolina
(report broken link)
FHS is a wonderful and caring place for animals. Employees and volunteers work very hard to find homes for the animals. Animals are treated very well here, and receive lots of love. This is a model shelter for the no kill shelter concept. They work closely with rescue groups and various partners in the community at large, to find animals forever homes. They also have programs that help animals to become more adoptable,as well as spay and neuter program for cats, training classes for dogs in the shelter, and dog training classes for the community. There is also a program to provide food for those cat owners that cannot afford food, so that the cats will not have to be placed in the care of the shelter (allowing the cats to stay with their families). In addition, FHS has a program that provides spay and neuter services and food for those who feed feral cats in the community. This program is called the "Po-Kitty Program" (named so after our county, POLK COUNTY). I volunteer as often as I can to walk the dogs at the shelter. As is the case with the other volunteers and staff at the shelter, I am elated when an animal finds a loving home.
I am pleased to be affiliated with FHS. There are other programs that I have not mentioned, such as the "On The Road" program, where animals are token to events via a mobile adoption trailer for adoption, recognition programs for volunteers, vaccination clinics, microchip clinics, and nail trimming animals in the community. There is a lot of community involvement here-Lots of talent used to help the animals in need. FHS has quite a cadre of dedicated people. Sincerely, Michael Thomas

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.
