**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. You may also view our adoptable pets on our petfinder site: http://www.petfinder.com/pet-search?shelter_id=TN112 and the photo albums posted on this page.
Adoption fees are $67.50 for dogs which includes shots, spay/neuter, checking for heartworm and treatment if necessary. Treatment for heartworm positive dogs are paid for by the city once the dog is adopted.
Adoption fees are $57.50 for cats which include shots, spay/neuter, and checking for feline leukemia.
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.
