Two weeks of constant care, careful isolation, and dedicated staff resulted in seven lives being saved. ❤️

Meet the Pepper Puppies who officially beat Parvo! These puppies lived thanks to our Joey’s Fund donations that allowed us to provide them with the care they needed to survive this deadly illness. Please consider donating to our special medical fund so we can continue providing care for these special medical cases that enter our doors.

This is Special, picked up on Turner Road.
If you are the owner, please bring proof of ownership and a Rabies certificate to reclaim.
The stray hold at the Toccoa-Stephens County Humane Shelter is 5 days, which allows owners a fair amount of time to come looking for their pets. On the sixth day, the animal becomes the property of the Toccoa-Stephens County Humane Shelter and is offered for adoption. An animal may be pre-adopted; however, if the owner comes forward, within the 5-day stray hold, the animal goes back to the owner. The adoption fee is refunded at that time.
TSCHS Adoption Procedure

● Tues.-Friday 11-5

*Stray animals may be pre-adopted before the stray hold is up. However, if an owner comes forward before the adopter picks up the animal, the pet would be returned to the original owner, and the adoption fee would be returned to the adopter.
We're not able to hold animals until the adoption process is complete. That includes the payment of the adoption fee. Adoptions are done on a first-come, first-served basis.
Applications can be emailed, and payment can be made via phone and at WWW.PayPal.me/TSCHS. Otherwise, we cannot hold animals.
