The Elizabethton-Carter County Animal Shelter is located at 135 Sycamore Shoals Dr in Elizabethton, Tennessee, about 100 miles west of Knoxville. The shelter is open Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM and Saturday from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM, and is led by Director Shannon Posada. It handles animal control across Carter County with a single Animal Control Officer covering the entire area, prioritizing emergency calls involving injured, aggressive, neglected, or abused animals while directing non-emergency matters to regular business hours. Adoptable cats and dogs can be viewed through the shelter's Adopt-a-Pet and Petfinder listings, and the shelter promotes adoption as a way to save lives, save money, and avoid supporting puppy mills.
