Pets in the shelter change often as they are only held for 7-14 days from their entrance into the shelter system before they are put up for adoption. There is a large influx of incoming animals so if you find an animal on our Petfinder site that you are interested in PLEASE call the shelter directly at 276-646-2222 and have that animal held.
Do NOT email the shelter for information on the animals listed here as email is not checked often! Instead call the shelter directly and ask any questions you may have.
Smyth County Animal Control is a county run all breed animal shelter located in Marion, Virginia.
SCAC works with the following counties ONLY for pet adoptions
Adoptors must show either a photo id or a valid drivers license to adopt a pet from SCAC.
There is no adoption fee but the pet you have adopted MUST be spayed or neutered within a specified time limit after adoption to comply with Virginia's law.
Take the Seven Mile Ford Exit and turn right. Once you go under the old stone bridge SCAC is on your right up on the hill.
