**MISSION**
Friends of the Germantown Animal Shelter strives to adopt dogs and cats into good homes as well as house stray dogs and cats until they are reunited with their owners.
**ADOPTING**
If you would like to view adoptable dogs and cats please come by the shelter during the hours listed above at 7700 Southern Avenue, Germantown, TN 38138. If you currently own a pet, you may bring him/her along to see if the animals get along.

A vet comes once a week to check animals at the shelter and treats them if necessary.
**VOLUNTEERING**
Volunteers of the shelter walk dogs, socialize cats, bathe and groom the animals. We promote animal adoption, responsible pet ownership, and spay/neutering. If you are interested in volunteering, you must go through a 20 minute orientation and fill out necessary paperwork. Those under 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult volunteer. You may call (901) 757-7358 to set up an orientation. Volunteering is a great way to socialize, exercise, and care for the animals as well as learn more about our local pet shelter.
