Montgomery County Animal Care and Control
As most folks are aware our Shelter is completely full of adoptable cats, kittens, dogs and puppies. This is a very critical as well as time sensitive situation and we want to start showcasing as many available, adoptable pets from the shelter as possible so they can find their forever families. All pets are fully vetted, some are already neutered and spayed which means they can go home the same day. The others will be spayed and neutered before heading to their new homes. Please take a moment to go to MCACC’s Petfinder page to check out all adoptables.
Also please feel free to share these pets and of course MCACC welcomes volunteers to come walk and spend time with all the animals so they can continue to interact with people and feel the love.
Roma is a 6 month old Pit bull terrier mix puppy. She is current on all puppy shots and will be spayed and microchipped before heading to her forever home.

Come meet this sweetheart and you will be hooked.
