Additional adoption info

Surry County has no adoption fee for animals. You are required to fill out and sign three forms. The first is a sterilization form which requires you have the animal you adopt spayed or neutered within 30 days of adoption if sexually mature as required by VA State Law. The second is a statement acknowledging you have never been charged or convicted of a crime against an animal, cruelty, abandonment or neglect. The third is an adoption release which states Animal Control does not guarentee the health or temperment of the animal you adopt and is no longer legally responsible for the animal after adoption.
