Corinth Alcorn Animal Shelter is a non-profit, 501c3, no kill animal shelter in Corinth, Mississippi. Go to our website, corinthalcornanimalshelter.org.
(216)

The Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter is a no kill, nonprofit animal shelter. Our vision is to end the needless killing of homeless pets, provide a safe place for them until they can be rehomed, keep pets with their families, and reduce overpopulation of domestic pets. Founded in 2011 and funded by private donations, the City of Corinth, the City of Farmington and the Alcorn County Board of Supervisor

s, the shelter is managed by community leaders, volunteers and a dedicated staff. The shelter’s funding from Corinth, Farmington and Alcorn County is used for payroll, utilities and some maintenance, while personal donations go directly to care for the animals, vet costs, supplies and food. Walmart Distribution Center in New Albany, Mississippi also donates approximately 1,500 pounds of dog and cat food to the shelter each week. The only animal shelter in a six county area of North Mississippi and West Tennessee, the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter is a private, non-profit organization. We are able to pursue our mission with support through private donations from individuals and businesses, grants from foundations and trusts, and various fundraising events. We are classified by the Internal Revenue Service as a 501(c)(3) organization for tax purposes and all donations are tax deductible to the full extent of the law. Due to space issues the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter is a managed intake facility. We are not an open admissions shelter – sometimes we must turn away animals. The shelter is almost always overburdened and usually full. We have a serious pet overpopulation problem in the north Mississippi, and there are many, many dogs and cats in need. Our protocal for animal intake and our city/county contracts state that we will always accept animals from Animal Control, Police, EMTs, Fire Fighters, County Supervisors, and Emergency Services. These intakes are over 800 animals a year and so we often cannot take animals directly from the public due to space constraints. In late summer 2017, the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter partnered with the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors to launch ACSpay, a program to provide low-cost spay/neuter for dogs and cats owned by families in Corinth and Alcorn County, Mississippi. for information and to register. The shelter also provides a Pet Food Bank that distributes free dog and cat food to those in need. Our goal is to keep pets with their families and reduce drop offs and shelter intakes.

❌SUPPLY PLEA FOR THE SHELTER❌

We are desperately needing a few supplies here at the shelter! As we’ve stated several times, we are way over capacity and going through supplies super super fast in order to keep our animals in a clean, safe environment! These two are our most needed ones right now (**ALONG WITH CANNED DOG FOOD**) and of course any other items on our Amazon wishlist are always needed also.

With today being Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day, we felt it would be the perfect day to share a shelter favorite that we sadly lost last month.

Dane came to the shelter in April after being picked up as a “stray at large” and from day one we immediately knew he was such a special boy! He had the sweetest, most affectionate demeanor about him despite having a rough life that was a bit obvious. We ended up finding out that Dane was in heart failure despite him always being such a happy boy with the energy of a young pup! This is one of the down sides of working at an animal shelter. It’s never easy saying goodbye to any dog but sometimes you just have ones that make it a bit harder than it already is! We find peace in knowing Dane KNEW he was loved by us all here at the shelter! He enjoyed a few car rides and even pup cups from Starbucks!

He truly was the bestest boy and we would like to honor his memory by seeing some of our shelter supporters furbabies that have also crossed the Rainbow Bridge!🌈🌈🌈

27/08/2024

🫶🏼 We have truly enjoyed some of the Tractor Supply employees coming out to volunteer here at the shelter and it’s pretty obvious that the dogs have loved it also! ♥️

We cannot thank this group enough for taking the time to actually spend interacting with some of our dogs! Being a shelter dog is not always easy as this means there is minimum interaction with normal daily dog activities so having volunteers come out and provide positive enrichment acts with them is truly wonderful. We cannot wait to have this group come back out again soon!

26/08/2024

Let’s see those furbabies in honor of it being National Dog Day!🐾♥️🐾

COME OUT AND SHOW YOUR SUPPORT TO OUR SHELTER!♥️

23/08/2024

📣Those who are planning on volunteering tomorrow to help us out with the adoption event, PLEASE meet at the shelter around 9:00am so we can get a count on how many dogs are able to go depending on how many people we have show up!

We hope tomorrow is a successful event and that we have several of our dogs find their furever homes! We are so thankful for Tractor Supply hosting this event and including us!♥️

⭐️DOG OF THE WEEK⭐️

To spotlight our $50.00 adoption fee on dogs is this gorgeous boy, Abe! He came to the shelter in July of 2023 with his three siblings and he’s the only one left of them now waiting to find his forever home. We estimate Abe to be around 2 years old and would love to see him get out of the shelter life into a home with a family of his own! If you are interested in meeting Abe or any of our other dogs, please come on down to the shelter and do so!

Neville just thought everyone should be reminded of our✖️$50.00 ADOPTION FEE✖️in honor of National Dog Month that we are doing until the end of August!📣📣📣

He wants everyone to know that we have several wonderful dogs who have been waiting for a home for years here at the shelter… including himself! He says things have been a bit chaotic because we are so full but that the shelter staff is doing a great job on keeping him and all his shelter pals taken care of despite being overwhelmed.♥️

Sweet Neville is such a character and deserves to be living his best life being a couch potato (his appearance is very fitting with that title🤣) and so do all of our others that have been here for a few years now! Come to the shelter and spend some time with them so you can see for yourself just how deserving they all are!

⭐️EMPLOYEE APPRECIATION POST⭐️

As you all know we like to give recognition to our employees and today we want to give that recognition to our “Cat Lady” here at the shelter, Jennifer! She has worked at the shelter for a few years now and has earned her place in caring for all of our cats and kittens. Jennifer has more knowledge on caring for cats than you would think there even is which makes her perfect for this position. So THANK YOU JENNIFER for being a ⭐️STAR CAT LADY⭐️ here at the shelter!

**pictured with Jennifer is one of our long term cat residents, Smokey!**

07/08/2024

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A WAY TO HELP OUT AT OUR SHELTER???

While it’s always great to donate if you are able to, there are definitely other ways that are a major help to the shelter that also help benefit the dogs in a more physical way— VOLUNTEERING!

Volunteers help with socializing the dogs and cats by getting them out of their kennels more which can also help in the long run on them finding a home. We always encourage people in the community to come spend some time volunteering and we know the animals sure do enjoy it! You can fill out your volunteer application by clicking the link below⬇️

https://corinthalcornanimalshelter.org/volunteer-1

We look forward to seeing some new faces and having some extra help when it comes to caring for the full house of animals we have! We promise you’ll be glad you did!♥️

Our Story

The Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter is a no kill, nonprofit animal shelter on a mission to save the abused, neglected, abandoned and injured animals in Corinth and Alcorn County, Mississippi. Founded in 2011 and funded by private donations, the City of Corinth, the City of Farmington and the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors, the shelter is managed by community leaders, volunteers and a dedicated staff. The shelter’s funding from Corinth, Farmington and Alcorn County is used for payroll, utilities and some maintenance, while personal donations go directly to care for the animals, vet costs, supplies and food. Sunshine Mills in Tupelo, Mississippi also donates around 1,500 pounds of dog food to the shelter each week. The only animal shelter in a six county area of North Mississippi and West Tennessee, the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter is a private, non-profit organization. We are able to pursue our mission with support through private donations from individuals and businesses, grants from foundations and trusts, and various fundraising events. We are classified by the Internal Revenue Service as a 501(c)(3) organization for tax purposes and all donations are tax deductible to the full extent of the law. Our Vision is to end the needless killing of homeless pets and help control pet overpopulation in our community. Why? Because it’s the right thing to do. Because we know it can be done. And because we believe that every pet is an important life. Pets lives are important to us, however due to space issues the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter is a limited-intake facility. We are not an open admissions shelter – we must turn away animals. The shelter is almost always overburdened and usually full. We have a serious pet overpopulation problem in the north Mississippi and west Tennessee area, and there are many, many dogs and cats in need. Because of contracts, the shelter must receive all animals captured by City of Corinth animal control, Alcorn County Board of Supervisors and City of Farmington animal control. The shelter can not intake all animals from the public due to space and contractual agreements. The shelter focuses on critically injured and abused dogs and cats, and we never euthanize for time or space. Unfortunately, we can’t take every animal, and we can’t even accept every injured animal because the need in our area is so great. In late summer 2017, the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter partnered with the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors to launch ACSpay, a new program to provide low-cost spaying for female dogs owned by low-income families in Corinth and Alcorn County, Mississippi who may not be able to afford it at regular cost. The cost of $25 will include the procedure and a rabies vaccination. Click here to learn more about ACSpay. The shelter also hosts a catch-and-release program for feral cats in Corinth and Alcorn County, Mississippi. The shelter picks up feral animals, brings them to the shelter, has the animals spayed or neutered and then releases them back into the community. The program has made a great impact on the local kitten population.
