The Franklin County Animal Shelter is located on 550 Industry Road in Farmington. They are a non-profit animal shelter focused on providing temporary care and shelter to stray, homeless, and abandoned animals within our community. We are a no-kill shelter, which means we never euthanize animals due to a lack of space.

We are currently able to accept surrenders on an emergency and space available basis.  If the need to surrender is not urgent, we can help provide you with pet food and supplies from our Pet Food Pantry. Please call us for an appointment at (207) 778-2638 during our office hours, Monday through Saturday, Noon to 4 p.m.

Here are this week’s Pets of the Week.

Joey, Male, 1 to 3 Years:  Hi there, my name is Joey. I am a shy dude who is still adjusting to my surroundings here at the shelter. I get along really well with the other cat social cats here.

Maverick, Hound Mix, Male, 1 Year Old:  Meet Maverick! Maverick is a very sweet hound boy who is very exuberant in almost every aspect of his being. He is a typical hound, very vocal and very food motivated! He loves going for walks and being around people. Maverick would love to find a patient home who is willing to work with him on basic manners and would highly benefit from continued leash training. Maverick would love to meet your current dog to see if they can be friends but requires a home that is feline free.  Due to his overly excited, friendly and exuberant nature along with his size, Maverick would be best suited for a home without small children.
