Russell County Animal Shelter is a small rural facility in the southwest of Virginia. We have 24 dog runs and the intake area covers 477 square miles in Russell County. The total number of dogs at the shelter varies, but is typically completely full. Thanks to our rescue partners and adopters, Russell County Animal Shelter does not normally euthanize dogs to make space for incoming strays. We are also fortunate enough to work with some amazing rescue groups and dedicated individuals who help us move animals to safety each and every week.
