Belmont County Animal Shelter
Our Mission
At Belmont County Animal Shelter, our mission is to save the lives of stray and abandoned animals in our care. We are dedicated to reuniting lost pets with their families while ensuring the health and safety of both our community and our furry residents.
Who We Are
Located in St. Clairsville, Ohio, we serve as a vital resource for our community. We believe every animal deserves a second chance at a happy life, and we work tirelessly to provide a safe, nurturing environment for every pet that comes through our doors.
How We Care for Our Animals
Our shelter acts as a dedicated facility for local animals in need of a fresh start. We focus on providing essential care, medical attention, and the day-to-day enrichment necessary to keep our residents happy and healthy while they wait for their forever homes.
Building Lifelong Bonds
We believe that adopting a pet is a joyful partnership. Because we care deeply about the success of every match, we require that all current pets in a potential adopter’s home be spayed or neutered and up to date on core vaccines. By working closely with you and verifying vet references, we ensure every animal finds the perfect, loving environment tailored to their personality and needs.
Join Us in Saving Lives
Ready to meet your new best friend? We invite you to browse our current list of adoptable animals or visit our facility in St. Clairsville to see who might be waiting for you. Whether you choose to adopt a companion or support us through a donation for medical treatments, toys, and bedding, you are making a meaningful difference in the lives of animals who need it most.
