DOGS AND PUPPIES: $65.00 fee includes: spay/neuter, rabies vaccination, distemper/parvo vaccination, worming, heartworm testing, and microchipping.
CATS AND KITTENS: $45.00 fee includes: spay/neuter, rabies vaccination, upper respiratory vaccination, feline leukemia testing, worming, and microchipping.
If the animal is already altered, it can go home with you the day it is adopted. If the animal requires a spay or neuter, it will be neutered the next day by the shelter vet and then ready to go home that afternoon. This makes the adoption procedure and adjustment easier for the animal and assures us that the procedure is performed. If the puppy or kitten is too young for the spay or neuter, dates will be given at the time of adoption with STRICT instructions to have the procedure done by the date listed on the contract. This ensures that the surgery is done in a timely manner.
"We cannot absolutely guarantee the health of any animal beyond its appearing to be in good health at the time of adoption. We also recommend that you take your pet for a general checkup upon exiting the shelter."
Careful consideration should be made before adopting any pet. Dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, and even furry critters will require a significant amount of time and energy. Adult animals require a yearly physical and vaccinations. Young animals must complete a series of vaccinations to build immunities to viruses. We will have adoption personnel on hand who will be able to answer any questions you may have. For some helpful training tips, click below:

MAGGIE'S BARK PARK - WHERE ALL THE HIP K-9'S HANG OUT
Williamson County Animal Control hope that you will bring your newly adopted family member to the park! Maggie's is located on the grounds of Williamson County Animal Control and is the very first off-leash dog park in the great state of Tennessee. Since it opened in October, 2001, this park has become a special place for area residents and their dogs. Canine birthday celebrations have even been held at Maggie's! This fabulous park offers a quarter mile walking trail and two fenced areas. The larger of the two areas features agility equipment for adult dogs, and the smaller area known as RASCAL'S RUN-AROUND is for puppies and small dogs less than 30 pounds. Maggie's Bark Park also has lights, a drinking fountain, covered benches, and kiddie pools for the pooches that love the water (these are very popular during the hot, humid summer months). There is even a gazebo on the grounds donated by Kay and Cindy Owen which provides a comfortable place to relax. Local residents Andy and Karen Menzyk donated funds to establish this wonderful park in memory of their beloved bearded collie, Maggie, who was a member of their family for almost fifteen years. Their main goal in building the park was to increase public awareness of the adoptable animals and other services provided at Williamson County Animal Control. Jack and Peggy Beasley funded Rascal's Run-Around in honor of their beloved dog, Rascal. Seasonal events, such as Christmas and Halloween parties, also take place at the park. For more information, please contact Williamson County Animal Control at 615-790-5590.
