City of Columbia - Maury County Animal Services Facility

Welcome to the City of Columbia - Maury County Animal Services Facility, where our mission is to provide comprehensive animal care and control services to the residents of Maury County. We believe in promoting the well-being of animals and fostering a community that supports responsible pet ownership. Our facility, located at 1233 Mapleash Avenue, Columbia, Tennessee, houses a variety of essential services including our Adoption Center, Intake Center, a shelter for stray and unwanted pets, the Animal Control Division, and a specialized veterinary clinic dedicated to the care of shelter animals. At our Adoption Center, we prioritize the welfare of our animals. All adoptable pets are spayed or neutered and receive necessary vaccinations, flea/tick preventative treatments, deworming, and heartworm testing for dogs. We strive to match pets with loving families, and our affordable adoption fees are set to encourage responsible pet ownership: $75 for dogs and $50 for cats. Special adoption events may also provide opportunities for reduced fees. For those who need to surrender a pet or report a stray, our Intake Center operates by appointment from Tuesday to Friday, fostering a safe environment for both pets and the public. We encourage keeping your pets safe by ensuring they have proper identification, as our Animal Control Officers are equipped to scan for microchips, helping reunite lost pets with their owners. Our team of qualified Animal Control Officers is trained in animal behavior, humane law enforcement, and emergency response. They are dedicated to responding to animal-related calls and ensuring the safety and welfare of both pets and people in our community. We aim to address issues such as animal cruelty, neglect, and stray animals with compassion and professionalism. Volunteering with us is a great way to give back to the community and help us care for the animals in our shelter. Our dedicated volunteers lend their time and hearts to assist in various capacities, from direct animal care to fostering community awareness about responsible pet ownership. We invite you to explore our website, visit our facility, or reach out directly for any inquiries. Together, let's enhance the lives of animals in Maury County and create a compassionate environment for all. Thank you for considering pet adoption and for supporting the City of Columbia - Maury County Animal Services Facility!
