Aiken County Animal Shelter

"I've lived in Aiken County for 25 years and this has to be one of the best expenditures of the tax dollars and the people that volunteer at the animal shelter. Friends of the animal shelter really make this place really quite a valuable asset. Usually when you think of animal shelters you think of misery and hopelessness but Aiken county animal shelter is a fantastic facility and the people that work there do a very difficult job and it's one of the best I've ever seen. And like I said if it weren't for the volunteers well I don't think it would be as good as it is. As of today there were 86 dogs waiting for adoption and quite a few cats. So come on down and change your life."

"Wonderful establishment that really cares about the well-being of all the animals adopt don’t shop"

"I adopted a sweet dog from here a few weeks ago. I have to say that I am absolutely impressed by the friendliness of those who work there, those who volunteer and the facility itself. They are loving and caring and the process could not have been any easier. They take amazing care of the babies there. Taking care of neutering/ spaying/ shots / heartworm testing and flea and tick and heartworm medications !!! I’m so happy to have such an amazing girl as an addition to my family and my husband, sons and other two dogs love her and they get along famously! If you have thought about adopting a dog or cat …. This is an amazing opportunity and experience and I’m so , SO glad I made the drive and adopted the most amazing girl ! Thank you so much for all of your care and love and fantastic support and communication!"

"Elijah now named Eli…the volunteers are AWESOME!!!! I adopted a dog that was there for 4 months. I visited several times with various family members before deciding to adopt. They followed up with calls & offered training. The best experience. THANK YOU! We have a great dog. The volunteers take the time to know the animal & personality."
