Mason County Animal Shelter
Mason County Shelter is a small shelter in a very rural part of West Virginia. This shelter accepts animals for $1.00, and most times people won't even pay that, so they toss the puppies, dogs, cats and kittens over the fence or put them in the "night deposit" box. This shelter NEEDS help. The animals here are wonderful! PLEASE help save their lives! Rescues and adoptive homes, please call the Mason County contact people: Judy or Kimberly Oliver (catndog@ezwv.com) at (304-675-6458)or Missy Holestin (x5dogs@aol.com) at (304)395-1312 after 9:00pm for information on how you can send donations or rescue one or more of these precious dogs and cats.
