Jay County Animal Control provides a safe place for lost and unwanted animals in our county until they are placed in new homes.

As it is an outdoor shelter, hours are weather permitting.

Jay County Animal Control is a small, rural, primitive outdoor facility. It is privately owned and contracted by the county and local towns to take in animals.

This shelter is operated out of the owner's home, so PLEASE call before coming to be sure they are open. Also please be respectful and do not call before 9 am or after 9 pm.

The shelter staff is NOT online. This site is run by volunteers. Everything we know about each animal is listed. If you'd like more information about a pet or want to come see or adopt an animal, please contact the shelter by phone at 260-726-4365. Thanks!
