Brookhaven Animal Shelter
Our Mission
The Brookhaven Animal Shelter and Adoption Center is dedicated to providing compassionate care, shelter, and adoption services for homeless animals while promoting responsible pet ownership throughout the Town of Brookhaven. We are committed to helping pets find loving, forever homes and supporting the overall welfare of animals in our community.
Serving Our Community
Our shelter serves as a vital resource for the Town of Brookhaven, offering a range of programs that reach beyond simple animal housing. From our food pantry designed to help families keep their pets to our public outreach and spay/neuter clinics, we strive to make a lasting difference in the lives of both pets and the people who love them.
Our Commitment to Care
Operating from our facility on Horseblock Road, our dedicated staff provides daily care and medical attention for animals waiting for their second chance. We work tirelessly to ensure every animal in our custody receives the love and support they deserve, while our Animal Control officers work seven days a week to help stray animals find safety and, whenever possible, return to their families.
Finding Your Perfect Companion
We believe that successful adoption is a partnership built on a lifelong commitment. By utilizing our Matchmaker application process, we help ensure that you and your family are ready for pet guardianship and that the animal you choose is the perfect match for your lifestyle. Every dog and cat in our care is spayed or neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated before heading to their new home.
