Due to budgetary constraints, the discount spay/neuter coupon program has been discontinued. Please contact the Orange County Humane Society at (540)672-0069 for information on their monthly low-cost public transport to the Harrisonburg Spay/Neuter Clinic.

The Orange County Animal Shelter provides animal control services and shelters unwanted, lost or abandoned animals.

Animal control, which collects stray, sick or aggressive animals, is a function of the Sheriff's Office. The Orange County Humane Society assists animal control by helping find placement for homeless pets.

The Orange County Humane Society is sponsoring a low-cost spay/neuter transport once a month.  Cats and dogs welcome!  Vaccinations and testing services are also available.  To get more information about this exciting opportunity or to schedule an appointment, please call their voicemail at 540-672-0069 and leave a message; a volunteer will get back to you shortly!  Drop-off and pick-up of animals for the shuttle will be at the Orange County Fairgrounds.  Residents of Orange and surrounding counties welcome.

The Orange County Animal Shelter sponsors low-cost vaccination clinics every spring and fall.  Rabies and distemper shots are available for both cats and dogs.  These clinics are open to everyone, regardless of county of residence.  Please ensure that your dogs are safely secured on leash and your cats either harnessed or in an appropriate carrier.
