We are the only no-kill shelter in Gilmer County. We began in 2000 and have rescued 6,000 animals. We are all volunteers dedicated to helping homeless animals find their forever homes.

Stanly County Humane Society, Inc. is a non-profit corporation recognized by the IRS as 501(c)3. All contributions are tax deductible. Our mailing address is PO Box 1632 Albemarle, NC 28001. We are located only 1 hour from Charlotte and 1 1/2 hours from Greensboro, however, we do not have an actual shelter at this time. We feature both pure and mixed breed dogs that are usually under 20 pounds. Our dogs are fostered in a climate so that we know them well and can place them in the kind of home they need. Our goal is for both the pet and the adoptive family to be very happy with each other.

Cooper's Chance Animal Rescue, a national, 501c3 nonprofit, all volunteer animal rescue. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home unwanted, abused and neglected animals. We rescue all animals and are not breed specific. We also focus our efforts on larger dogs or elderly dogs in need of extra care. We are not a shelter and do not accept strays, all of our rescued pets are placed into loving foster homes and receive one on one attention, complete vet care, training and socialization. We also educate the public on proper and responsible pet ownership through nonprofit partnerships, public education programs and grass root efforts within communities. Currently we are striving to raise funds to initiate the building of the country's first eco friendly and environmentally sustainable no kill shelter! This awesome facility, open to the public, will offer not only a clean, safe place for animals of all shapes and sizes...we will be working to save our planet too! A completely Green Building, we will reuse and recycle everything we can to insure our paw print on earth is minimal.

All breed rescue that primarily fosters dogs, but some cats as well.

several people broke off from a local rescue that had become, in our opinion, too much about prestige and money. They also weren't doing a good job in caring for the pets physically and mentally. We want to focus on the quality of our work, not quantity. We do rescue simply because it's the right thing to do! I am a certified vet tech so i've always thought that it's kind of my duty to share my talents.
