Lee County Animal Pound is a small rural facility in the southwest of Virginia. While Lee County Animal Pound is not yet a no-kill facility, this is a goal we strive to achieve each and every day. For more information see the Lee County Animal Control website. From Highway 58, turn south onto State Route 70 and immediately turn left on Bus Shop Road. Follow the signs to the Pound. The pet in the photo (top right) is looking for a home. Click on the picture for more information about it.

Lost your dog?
Stray dogs without collar are kept for 7 days before being put up for adoption. Dogs with a collar are kept for 12 days before being put up for adoption. Contact the shelter to check whether your pet is there. Some of the stray dogs are featured on the
Lee County Virginia Control Facebook Page but not all are put here so contact the shelter if you have lost your dog.
Adopting a dog?
Adoptions are free to the public, however, you must sign an Adoption Agreement, and a Spay/Neuter Agreement stating that you will have the animal spayed or neutered within a certain period depending on the age of the animal.
- State law requires that adopted dogs be sterilized within 30 days of adoption.
- State law requires that all dogs and cats be vaccinated for rabies.
- Out of state adoptions must be spayed or neutered before leaving the state.
- There are no fees associated with adoption.
Found a dog?
If you find a stray dog, you have no specific duty to take the dog to the pound. Each county and city in Virginia has to have an animal control officer, and you are certainly within your rights to contact animal control to report the stray. See our opening times above.
- Make a reasonable attempt to find the owner. If you can, ascertain who the owner is by way of a tag, license, collar, tattoo or other form of identification or markings; AND
- Notify the local pound where the animal was found, and provide the pound with your name and phone number, the location where you found the animal, and a description of the animal along with any information from a tag, license, collar, tattoo or other form of identification or markings.
Find the right dog for you
When looking for that new family member please remember to really think about the things you and your family want and need
in a pet that fits the family lifestyle. Get to know your breeds! Some breeds require more space, exercise and circumstances
than others. Even if you are going to adopt a mixed breed, look into what it's primary breed needs in a home,
environment and exercise. Your new family member needs to be wanted by everyone in the family and included
in your daily lives to be truly happy.

We need towels, blankets, hard and soft dog food, basic cleaning supplies and dog beds or you may mail a donation to Lee County Animal Pound, Bus Shop Road, Jonesville, VA, 24263. On behalf of the dogs thank you. No Squeeky Toys Please
Toys that make a noise when you squeeze them can encourage some dogs to be aggressive towards young children because they squeek too. The device that makes the noise is usually small and can be harmful if swallowed. Some toys of this type contain a small battery which is poisonous if the dog eats it. The best toys are tuggers, tennis balls and hard chew toys that cannot be ripped apart.
