Emergency services are provided for stray animals that have been injured or are dangerous.  Our Animal Control Officers provide these 24 hour emergency services for injured or vicious stray animals.  If you become aware of such a situation, please use the following numbers to notify us as soon as possible. 

     During business hours:      304-422-5541 

    After hours:                       304-481-7854

Animals running at large are not considered emergencies.  While we understand that an animal running loose is a dangerous situation for the animal and the public, we cannot respond to these calls after hours as emergencies.  But please contact the Shelter during normal business hours to inform us of these animals.  The Officers will respond to such calls as soon as possible but understandably, priority is given to injured and vicious animal situations.
