About this shelter

Scott County Animal Shelter in Gate City, VA

Scott County Animal Shelter is a small rural facility located in Gate City, Virginia, roughly 80 miles southwest of Knoxville, TN. It cares for both dogs and cats and works alongside a network of rescue groups and dedicated individuals to help move animals to safety each week. While not yet a no-kill facility, achieving that goal is something the shelter strives toward every day. Adopted dogs are vaccinated upon intake and must be spayed or neutered, with an adoption fee of $30 to help cover the cost of care.
