The Hornell Animal Shelter makes available 16 dog runs with inside/outside access. The facility offers a separate room for puppies, and two specialized rooms for cats including a 9 cage quarantine room.
In addition to the clean, friendly areas we make available for our animals, our "people" office is modern, spacious and welcoming. We have a well-equipped examination room, an animal bathing area and administrative office.
We are located on the Industrial Road, just north of Hornell. Our big sign is visible from Route 36 on your right if you are traveling north. We would love to have you stop in for a visit!
OUR VISION is to assure the best possible shelter and care of our community's dogs and cats while they are awaiting adoption into loving homes. We promote humane education and encourage community involvement.
OUR MISSION is to nurture and promote the human/animal bond while raising community awareness through education.
