Prince George's County Animal Services Facility & Adoption Center

🚨 Urgent: Community members - Adopters and fosters are needed to save 15 dogs on the latest urgent list by today, 12/16. They all need to be adopted or have rescue commitment, and have to leave the shelter by 7pm today (or after spay/neuter.) If no one saves them, they will be euthanized due to being over capacity. Most of these dogs need homes outside of PG County. As of 12/15: Up to 15 dogs still need adopters and fosters! Now 14 dogs are safe. Check for updates at the Facebook links.
🐶 Adopters: Please go to the shelter today between 11am and 7pm (arrive by 5:30pm or no later than 6pm)&nbsp;to meet and adopt urgent dogs. Adopters are able to meet 2 dogs and bring dogs for meet and greets.
*In order to apply to adopt a “terrier mix”, you must provide two original documents with matching addresses as proof of residency outside of PG County (due to breed specific legislation.) 
🐶 Prospective fosters: Please apply to rescue partners, or with the shelter for certain dogs, to become a foster and save a life. Urgent dogs have to be&nbsp;fostered through a rescue, but certain dogs may be fostered through the shelter for this list. See the Friends' post for rescues seeking fosters for these dogs. Fostering is usually free with a rescue.
Please see bios, photos, and videos of the urgent dogs at these&nbsp;links and share posts with friends, family,&nbsp;neighbors, and coworkers.
