Who We Are . . .
As we are a municipal facility. We cannot keep animals indefinately at taxpayers expense so we make every effort to find homes for our animals, including placing them with no-kill shelters.
We have 2 full time employees, 2 part time employees and welcome volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering, see below.
About our facility
We are a small facility that can handle up to 15 dogs and about 15 cats at a time.
Our adoption procedure is simple and can be taken care of at the time of adoption. There is a pre-adoption interview and a short adoption form to be completed. All adoptions are in person.
Since we are a municipal facility, we cannot afford to provide veterinary care for every animal. Adopters should take the animal to the vet within 7 days for a check-up. The pound makes no guarantees about the health of the animal you are adopting and cannot be held responsible for any vet bill incurred once an animal is adopted. Any animals adopted from the pound may be returned to us if there is a problem.
Volunteers & Donations:
We need volunteers and donations to take care of and support our homeless animals after the initial time allowance.
We can always use donations of:
dry or canned dog food
dry or canned cat food
dogruns and rabbit hutches are needed so
that we can help rescue more rabbits
blankets and small rugs, used clean ones are fine
toys for cats and dogs
and $$ for altering
If you are interested in volunteering, please stop by the Randolph Town Hall and sign up at the Department of Health ( click here for volunteer form) or e-mail Claudine , volunteer coordinator, for more information. Volunteers must be over 18 to handle the animals. Younger people are welcome to visit the pound with a parent. You can also help by makeing a donation or fostering or adopting a cat.
If you would like to make a donation, you may send a check to:
Friends of Randolph Animal Pound
and mail it to:
Randolph Municipal Building

to a free rabies shot through the Randolph Health department.
Unaltered animals will also come with a low cost spay/neuter certificate.
