The Effingham County Animal Shelter will be closed May 12 as staff members participate in continuing education and training to better serve the animals and our community.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as our team takes part in this important professional development opportunity. Regular operations will resume May 13.

Does anyone recognize this dog? It’s been wandering the 200 block of Old Tusculum Road near Highway 21 in Springfield over the past week. Please message us or call 912-754-4195 if you know who it belongs to. Not contained but very friendly. We are trying to avoid the dog having to go to the shelter.
