Montgomery County, TN – In an effort to make the public aware of the animal problem in Montgomery County, Montgomery County Animal Care and Control has released the statistics on the intake, adoption and euthanasia for the month of May, 2019.

On the out take side, 318 animals were processed out of the facility: 111 animals were adopted (4 kittens, 15 cats, 15 puppies, 68 dogs and 8 other); 128 animals were transferred to rescue organizations and 73 dogs, and 6 cats were reclaimed by their owner.

Here are the May 2019 stats and as you can see we are working hard to stay about that 80% save rate which we were at 85% for the month of may, truly awesome! The staff has been working so hard to find homes, working on events, and just doing what they do best.
Montgomery County Animal Care has utilized one of their Petfinder Grants, the New Year New Home Grant we were able to find homes for 22 of our pets here at the shelter just using this grant. Many of these pets found new homes with our Military Families, Wounded Warriors, and Gold Star Families so all went to very deserving homes.
