Lancaster County Animal Shelter

2074 Pageland Highway
Lancaster, SC 29720

Our Mission

The primary function of the Lancaster County Animal Shelter is to house and care for stray and surrendered animals. If stray pets are not claimed after a 5-day stray hold, the animal becomes the property of Lancaster County and are offered to animal rescues and to the public for adoption. You DO NOT need to be a Lancaster County Resident in order to adopt from the shelter.
