We will resume normal business hours Monday July 6th, 2026.

🚨 If you have an animal emergency during our closure, please contact your local non-emergency dispatch number. They will be able to assist you or direct you to the appropriate resources.

We hope everyone has a safe and happy Fourth of July! ❤️🤍💙🐾

We’re excited to once again partner with BISSELL Pet Foundation for the Empty the Shelters national adoption event!

Join us July 5th through July 26th as we work to find loving homes for the wonderful dogs and cats in our care. Every adoption gives a deserving animal a fresh start while creating space for us to help even more pets in need.

Whether you’re looking for a playful kitten, a laid-back senior, an energetic dog, or a cuddly companion, we have a variety of amazing animals waiting to meet you.

We encourage everyone to stop by the shelter during the event, meet our adoptable pets, and consider opening your heart and home to a shelter animal. Even if you’re not ready to adopt, sharing this event with your friends and family helps our animals find the loving homes they deserve.

We can’t wait to help you find your new best friend. We hope to see you July 5th–26th! 🐾❤️

Save a life by adopting a shelter pet!

We’re excited to announce that BISSELL Pet Foundation‘s Spring National #EmptyTheShelters reduced-fee adoption event will be coming to our shelter from July 5th – July 19th. You can adopt a spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped pet for a reduced adoption fee thanks to sponsorship from the Bissell Pet Foundation.

Our nation’s animal shelters are facing a capacity crisis and need your help now to get pets from shelter kennels into the couches of loving homes.

Did you know New Albany has a premiere dog park? Located along Highway 111 and Budd Rd, the New Albany Dog Park is the place for you and your dog to enjoy the outdoors! This multi-acre, members only, off-leash dog park has plenty of open space for your pooch to run and play. The park features swings, gazebos, benches, water spigots, wooded areas, a separate agility course, and much more. There are also two large play areas where the dogs are separated by weight, so that the smaller dogs will have a less intimidating environment to run and play with their friends.
