The Levy County Animal Services Center is an Animal Shelter that takes in unwanted or stray pets. We are by no means a boarding facility for the general public. Animals that are housed here are pets that someone has left to roam as a stray. The policy for this facility is to hold all animals for three working days. After which time the animal may be adopted or destroyed humanely. We encourage all animal owners to identify your pets with the owners name and telephone number, rabies tag, or implanted micro chip. We use a Scanner for identifying lost pets with micro chips, so if found we can reunite pet and owner. Animal Services provides a periodic low cost Vaccination Clinic for dogs and cats. Please contact us for dates and times.
Levy County Animal Services is a rescue friendly shelter..
All Animals that are adopted or rescued from the Levy County Animal Services are required by Florida Law to be Spay/Neutered and also have a rabies vaccination. To adopt a male dog from the shelter the fee is $70.00, which covers neutering and rabies vaccination. To adopt a female dog from the shelter the fee is $85.00, which includes spaying and rabies vaccination. All adoptions are cash only. Adoptions can be done Monday thru Friday between 9 am & 4 pm. Due to the time factor all adoptions are done on a first come basis. There are no waiting periods if the animal is adoptable. You pay for the spay/neuter and rabies vaccination at the time of adoption and you have 30 days to have the procedure completed and paperwork returned from the vet. Thanks to Petfinder.org and the rescue groups that have come forward to assist in rehoming these animals. Levy County is growing in leaps and bounds and Levy County Animal Services is attempting to expand its needs to those that we serve.
Levy County Animal Services has a new facility for Emergency Sheltering, should we have a Disaster. The Emergency Pet Sheltering will be done when Emergency Management opens shelters for people. Tune to your local TV or Radio station for Shelter openings. The Pet Sheltering will be at 12055 NE 69th Lane, Bronson 32621 (Levy County Landfill site).
