Animal Shelters in Richmond, VA
Richmond has 16 listed animal shelters and rescue organizations. The largest group are rescue organizations. Henrico and Glen Allen, both within about six miles, have listings of their own. There is no shortage of choice in Richmond — old dogs, shy cats, and a fair few who will pick you first.
Richmond has 16 listed at the moment, and they are shown above with the ones that have photos first.
A mix of both, and the difference is worth knowing before you set out. A rescue usually places animals from a network of foster homes rather than from premises you can walk into, so you generally arrange a meeting first. A shelter or humane society more often has a facility you can visit during opening hours.
The listings fall across Richmond city, Chesterfield County, Henrico County and Bedford County, so it is worth checking which one a shelter serves before travelling.
If nothing here suits, Henrico, Glen Allen and Mechanicsville all have listings within about nine miles. Each one links through from the sidebar.
Most listings here carry a phone number, and most link to the organization's own website. Calling ahead is worth it — opening hours change, and rescues often work by appointment rather than keeping a building open.
