It’s no secret that dogs are man’s best friend. Head over to Fannin County Animal Control to find yours! Even if you can’t take on the responsibility of a forever friend, Animal Control is always looking for volunteers to help care for these sweet babies.

In the past week, officers brought in three dogs with two reclaimed, one adopted, one going to Homeward Bound Pet Rescue, one to 4 Lucky Paws Rescue, one to 2 Hearts Rescue and one to Hearts & Tails Rescue.

Animal Control Officers and volunteers alike hope folks may be willing to open their home and their hearts to the dogs in their facility.

Community members are welcome to make item or monetary donations and may also walk dogs to help them get exercise.

Pet owners should make sure to properly tag and identify pets to prevent them being picked up unnecessarily. It is also advised to keep microchip information up to date. 

Hours of operation at Animal Control are Monday - Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon at the facility. After hours the officers follow up with community concerns and respond to stray dog calls.

Call 706-632-3845 for information on any of the dogs at Animal Control, to donate, volunteer or to see if a lost family pet has been picked up.
