Watch out! There's a new patrol vehicle in town. Animal Control wants to give a huge thank you to Chief Brian Holmes for making this possible for our department. We cannot thank him enough for this much needed upgrade. ❤️

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION:

Say hello to Noah! Small in stature but big in personality! Noah is thought to be approx. 1 year old and a kelpie/corgi mix of some kind. He is one of the 3 Hurricane Helene dogs here at the shelter. This boisterous boy is the rough and ready type and would love a dog companion that can keep up with his energy, but doesn't take life too seriously. An equally active human would be his ideal home. Noah is not a fan of cats and small children are not recommended. Noah is currently intact, but is schedule to be neutered next week before he can be adopted. Does Noah sound like a good fit for you? Find the adoption application on our page or inquire on Petfinder. Thanks! (video in comments)

About Us

Kingston Animal Shelter provides temporary housing for lost, stray, or abandoned cats and dogs in our community until they find their way home by reuniting with their owners or adoption! The shelter is given a small operating budget from the town for heat and electricity but all other care is possible through donations and volunteering. The whole shelter, our Wet Nose Pet Food Bank, and the animals that stay inside depend on donations for food, flea/tick/heartworm prevention, cat litter, vet care, etc. along with the time and tender care of hardworking volunteers for survival. The shelter has received countless donations from the community, which is how we are able to save the helpless pets we house. The shelter animals are so grateful for the generosity that the Town of Kingston’s community continues to show them! The Kingston Animal Control team works out of the Kingston Animal Shelter and includes two part-time Animal Control Officers: Joanna “Jo” Boudreau and Meghan E. Wrightington. The Town of Kingston also has the Animal Inspector: Debra J. Mueller who handles barn inspections and animal quarantines. The shelter and animal care is also maintained by so many wonderful volunteers, for without their dedication, the shelter would not be so accommodating.
