My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Rocket is a lovely Great Pyrenees boy who we think is still quite young (maybe around 1 year old) as he doesn't appear to be as "fluffed out", if you will, as most adult GPs that we have seen at the shelter. This great guy was obviously somebody's pet at one point as he is ALREADY neutered. He came into the shelter as a stray but has not been reclaimed. He has shown no aggression with dogs in nearby kennel runs. He does have a booming bark so could definitely serve as a great lookout/watch dog for someone as well. He has not been cat-tested and we do not have the ability to test shelter animals with children.

The shelter does not have the ability to perform heartworm testing on-site. Deworming and/or vaccinations can be done on occasion when medication is available (we rely on donations for this). For reputable rescues, however, local volunteer assistance is available for transport to a local Vet clinic for such testing and to obtain appropriate vaccines and Health Certificate at the rescue's expense. In order to pull animals from Ashe County Animal Control, rescues must be approved. The approval process involves submitting an application, available by emailing a Friends of Ashe County Animals (FACA) volunteer at fabulousmcg@gmail.com. As part of the application, rescues will need to submit copies of their adoption application, adoption contract and 501c3. Rescues will also need to provide a Vet Reference. The Animal Control Officers prefer that all rescue-related inquiries be directed to the volunteer email (fabulousmcg@gmail.com) so please do not contact the shelter with rescue-related inquiries. An FACA volunteer will be checking this email daily so please allow 24 hours for a response. Shelter information: Ashe County Animal Control 767 Fred Pugh Road Crumpler, NC 28617 Shelter Hours: 10:00AM-2PM, MON/WED/FRI. They are closed to public on TU/TH/SAT/SUN.
