Our Mission

Our mission at Forsyth County Sheriff's Office Pet Adoption and Resource Center (PARC) is to support public and animal safety, reunite lost pets with their families whenever possible, and to offer temporary care for animals while we work toward positive outcomes. Through a community-centric approach, PARC partners with residents, advocates, and local organizations to promote responsible pet ownership and ensure the health and safety of animals throughout Forsyth County.

Adoption Policy

The FCSO Pet Adoption and Resource Center (PARC) is open for adoptions Tuesday through Saturday from 10:30AM -5:00PM. We strive to help you choose the pet that’s right for you and your family. We consider ourselves “match-makers”, helping you find the perfect pet match. Our staff works diligently to learn as much as we can about our adoption animals likes, dislikes, quirks, and all-around personalities. Animals may be adopted as early as 8 weeks of age. PARC's regulations requires that animals are altered at 8 weeks of age or older. Once an animal reaches 8 weeks and is altered by the shelter, they are available for adoption by both County residents and those outside of the County. Any animal being adopted between the ages of 8 weeks - 12 weeks will not be vaccinated for rabies. It will be the responsibility and at the expense of the new owner to have the rabies vaccine done at 12 weeks of age. As per Georgia law (Rabies Control Law-O.C.G.A-31- 19) requires that all owned dogs and cats, 12 weeks or older, to be vaccinated against rabies by a licensed veterinarian using approved vaccines in accordance with the national Compendium of Animal Rabies Prevention and Control. All animals at PARC are medically evaluated prior to being placed for adoption where they receive the following: Medical exam Age appropriate vaccinations (12 weeks and older will receive a Rabies Vaccination) Spay/neuter surgery Microchip Flea/Tick Prevention Heartworm test and prevention (dogs) Fee’s: The adoption fee is $85.00 All cats/kittens are two (2) for $85.00 Adoption hours are Tuesday - Saturday 10:30am - 5:00pm.
