About this shelter
Goochland Animal Shelter in Maidens, VA
Goochland Animal Shelter is located in Maidens, Virginia, about 25 miles southeast of Richmond. It operates under the county's Department of Animal Protection, which is comprised of two branches: enforcement and sheltering. Animal Protection Officers enforce state and county animal welfare ordinances and work to ensure the safety and welfare of residents in relation to domestic animals, while shelter staff care for stray animals and work to reunite them with their owners. Adoptable animals are placed into homes through citizen adoptions or transferred to animal rescue organizations, and the shelter is open Tuesday through Saturday with hours varying by day, including extended hours until 7:00 PM on Thursdays.
