Harrison County Animal Control Shelter
Our Mission
Harrison County Animal Control is dedicated to serving our community by providing a safe environment for stray animals and ensuring they are given every opportunity to be reunited with their families or find a new place to call home.
Our Community Commitment
Operating out of our facility in Shinnston, West Virginia, we serve as a vital resource for the Harrison County area. Our work is guided by the core responsibility of caring for animals while upholding the standards set forth by the Harrison County Commission and state law.
How We Operate
Our facility acts as a central hub for stray animals found throughout our county. We strictly adhere to state law 19-20-6 (b), which requires that all animals taken in as strays are properly advertised, ensuring their original owners have the necessary time to reclaim them.
Finding Your New Companion
We believe that every animal deserves a loving environment. By providing transparency regarding our intake process, we help community members make informed decisions when looking to adopt or reconnect with a lost pet. We invite you to explore the wonderful animals currently at our facility who are waiting for a second chance.
