ANIMAL SHELTER DIRECTORY - MID-ATLANTIC
THE LISTINGS
Welcome to the Animal Shelter Directory – Mid-Atlantic. Here you will find a list of organizations where you can adopt a pet in the area. This includes the states of Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, and the District of Columbia. If you’re looking for a particular breed, click on the button to go to Breed Specific Rescues. And, if you click on Other Non-Profit Services for companion animals and their owners, you’ll find everything from assistance with spay and neuter services to charities providing blankets for shelter pets. I hope you find your perfect pet in these pages!
While you’re here, check out the blog. Lots of good information there including how to foster kittens, and learning how to spot a puppy mill. There are general posts, too, covering training, dog breeds and much more. Subscribe to my email list to received a free printable to take with you to the shelter. This will help you ask the right questions to find the perfect pet for you.
ADD TO THE PAGE
