About this shelter
Southampton County Animal Control and Public Shelter in Courtland, VA
Southampton County Animal Control and Public Shelter operates out of Courtland, Virginia, about 40 miles northeast of Newport News, and is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 9:30 AM. It functions under the Detention Division of the Southampton County Sheriff's Office, with two deputy sheriffs assigned to animal control duties. The department secures and transports stray or abandoned dogs to the pound, checks and verifies current animal licenses and rabies certificates, and promotes the humane treatment of animals and the prevention of cruelty. It also enforces local ordinances, including the requirement that dogs and cats be vaccinated against rabies by four months of age and that livestock not be allowed to run at-large.
