Are you ready for a new pet in your life? All of these animals are available for adoption at Iredell County Animal Services, 430 Bristol Drive, Statesville.

All of this week’s pets have been spayed or neutered and are looking for their forever homes. Come and meet them.







“One Way or Another,” she knows her family is going to find her… and meet her and meet her! Totally sang that! Meet Blondie (A292407). This cutie has moved up to adoption so please ask to meet her. This 2 year old and several other dogs were found abandoned and brought here safely by animal control. Blondie is a friendly, yet skittish girl which is understandable given her circumstances of coming to be here. This 44-pound German shepherd mix is ready for forever with her family and even if “The Tide is High,” she knows they will come and make sure her “Heart of Glass” never breaks again! For more information on this sweet girl, please come and meet her in person. Remember, you will need to ask staff to introduce you, as she is not in regular adoption due to no kennel space! We always recommend meet and greets with other dogs and children prior to adoption!

All adoptions include spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccines and microchip. Business hours are from noon to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. Access from 10 a.m. to noon Monday through Friday is by appointment.

For current adoption specials, visit the shelter in person as these change frequently.

The shelter is near capacity for dogs and to help clear the shelter, adoptions for dogs are currently $10.

This cutie-patootie is Rango (A291514) and he is 2 years old! He walks great on a leash with very little pulling! Rango is also very easily corrected with even the most minor of leash correction. Great job! This friendly boy loves riding in cars, jumping right in when it is time and he LOVES to have his head out the window! He is going to need a home with no cats and hey, we all have our preferences and that is his! Rango is such a handsome boy and this 54-pound sweetie is ready for forever! We always recommend meet and greets prior to adoption with other dogs and children. Please come to the shelter in person for more information.


The normal fee schedule is as follows: Dogs/puppies, $80; cats/kittens, $65; PetSmart only, cats/kittens, $20.

Sweet Digger (A290304) was found tied to a fire hydrant by a concerned citizen who kept him safe until our ACO could bring him here to the shelter. This 1-year, 8-month-old black lab cutie does great walking on a leash! He even sits patiently with you if you choose to rest and is so very sweet. Please come and meet this 51.40 pound cutie in person for more information. We always recommend meet and greets with other dogs and children prior to adoption.

Want to help, but you aren’t ready to adopt? How about volunteering? We are looking for long-term volunteers willing and able to give of their time, ideally weekly, for let’s say … forever? If you are only looking for short-term hours or a certain amount of hours for school service, community service project, special interest or others, please come see us, too. For those only needing short-term or limited hours, our volunteer program may not be for you, but we have other options available. We can tell you this for certain … ICAS volunteers are THE best and we can’t do what we do without them.

The Books & Buddies reading program is now running. No appointment is necessary. Reading times are from noon to 5 p.m. weekdays and 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays. Bring a book or borrow one from the shelter and grab a stool.

The Books & Buddies guidelines are:

Children of all ages and adults are welcome to read.

Children 15 and younger must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Do not put fingers in the kennels.

Do not run or make loud noises around the animals.

Sit sideways to the dog kennels when reading.

One person can be reading in the cat room at a time.

Readers must track their own service hours. Any staffer can sign off on service hours.

To become a volunteer, a foster owner or both, visit co.iredell.nc.us/149/animal-services-control, call the volunteer coordinator at 704-878-5424, ext. 3507, or stop by the shelter for an application from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.

Meet Isaac (A292172)! This 2 year old gets so excited when he first leaves his kennel then settles right down and walks SO well! He is super sweet and while he does get the zoomies sometimes when on his leash, he immediately stops when you stop to pet him. He has his priorities straight, right? This sweet and tan 57 pound cutie is sooo ready for his family to find him! Come and meet him in person for more information! We always recommend meet and greets with other dogs and children prior to adoption.


Fostering is a great way to get the animals out of the shelter for a reprieve and a great opportunity to get them in front of potential adopters they wouldn’t see while being in the shelter.

Fosters are true lifesavers in providing the tender loving care that the cats and kittens so desperately need for the animals’ best possible outcome.

The shelter doesn’t want the fosters to have to provide for the basic care items needed to care for the animals. To donate, the shelter’s address is 430 Bristol Drive, Statesville.

As for size of dry kitten food, 3.15- or 6.3-pound bags are easiest for fosters to handle.

Animal Services also holds drive-thru rabies clinics from 6-7 p.m. the second Tuesday of each month. The fee is $5, cash only.

For information, call the shelter at 704-878-5424.
