Help If You Find a Stray - In the past, it was standard practice for lost pets to be brought into the shelter. However, we now know they have a much better chance of getting back home if some actions are taken in the neighborhoods where they're found, before they are brought to a shelter. In fact, the typical reclaim rate for lost pets is only 17% when a pet comes into the shelter. But when a pet is kept in a safe place in the neighborhood where they were found, that rate jumps to 70%. If you have a found an animal and it's possible, we ask that you do not remove the animal from its neighborhood. Please report the information through PawBoost and
Lost.petcolove.org. You may also complete a Report a Found Animal form on our website at

We're grateful to those thinking of us and asking how they can help. Donations are always highly appreciated. We can put gently used beddings, towels, sheets, and rags to great use and the items are especially helpful at times, like now, when the shelter is full. Donate | Louisa County, VA
