The Atlantic County Animal Shelter is open for business daily 1-4pm by appointment only for adoption services and redemption of impounded strays at (609) 485-2345.
Any incoming strays should be directed to the local Animal Control Officer for proper processing.
On Friday, June 19, a group of Volunteers from Atlantic City Electric dropped off donations and spent some quality time with our adoptable dogs and cats. Gloria, one of our long term adoptable dogs, was particularly grateful for the love, playtime, and snacks! Just look at the smile on her face! Thank you Atlantic City Electric!
