from the shelter when I contacted them : Thank you for reaching out to us and making us aware of this situation. Do you happen to have more information on this conversation with our staff so we can direct this appropriately? Guilford County Animal Services I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We are an open admissions shelter for all Guilford County residents and highly discourage any form of animal abandonment. We will be following up with this internally so that the correct message is received by the public regarding our intake policies.

Anyone reading this, please contact the shelter. If enough of us let the shelter know this is happening, I know they will do what is right in correcting the behavior! Guilford county shelter: tel: 3366413400. or: https://www.facebook.com/GuilfordCountyAnimalShelter Someone at the shelter is telling people that are trying to do the right thing in keeping lost pets safe to "let them go". I understand the shelter is full, and it is crazily overwhelming. If the shelter cannot accept pets due to space constrictions, PLEASE share this with EVERY SINGLE VOLUNTEER OR EMPLOYEE THAT ANSWERS THE PHONES OR DEALS WITH THE PUBLIC: Keep the sweet pet safely contained. Someone’s beloved pet; they may be unaware their pet is out (So many pets are hit and killed before they're able to be safely returned home. 😔) 🐾 Any vet’s office will scan for microchip for free. 🐾 Not everyone is looking for their lost pets online, so it’s important to TALK to neighbors in the area. 🐾Check pawboost for LOST pets. LIST on pawboost 🐾Contact shelter with description and location: may be first place family is looking. 🐾Posting "found dog" on a simple cardboard, along with your phone number, posted close can be extremely helpful. Have any caller identify dog FIRST (specific markings, photos, vet records) Though most people are good, some will claim free pets for dog fighting bait 🤬or other unkind reasons. 🥹💖THANK YOU for caring enough to Act and help make our community a safe and caring place for everyone, especially these vulnerable animals, who rely on humans for their care 💗 I understand the shelter is overwhelmed, but anyone advising any kind-hearted community member to just "let the pet go" is ridiculously irresponsible, and is angering many online. Please make sure this is addressed immediately. HELP COMMUNITY HELP THE PETS THEY FIND WITH GOOD ADVICE ON HOW TO LOCATE PET PARENTS OF LOST PETS. TEACH THEM HOW TO CARE FOR OUR COMMUNITY'S PETS, AND ONE ANOTHER ....

If the county shelter is full, that means WE as the community are responsible for keeping these lost pets safe until their family can be found !!!!!! I am contacting the shelter to let them know someone is giving this advice to "let them go" ....INCREDIBLY IRRESPONSIBLE!!! 😡 If you see this poor animal again, PLEASE keep him or her safely contained !! Imagine if this were your own beloved pet. 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 Thank you, kind human, for keeping this sweet dog safe and contained 🤗 Someone’s beloved pup; they may be unaware their pup is out ?

That's awful! I hope you took it right back to the same place you found it! Maybe it can pick back up on its way home?????

Thank you for helping. Below are some tips: ✅ Please check for a microchip if shelter did not scan. It's free to check with any vet, the emergency vet is open 24/7. Also free with PetSmart and animal control when they are open. Be sure he is securely leashed so he doesn't get away at chip check location. ✅ The Nextdoor app is a helpful resource as well for lost/found pets. ✅ Check with neighbors at pickup location. May belong to someone who is not online. ✅ Please keep special identifying details to a minimum (special markings, collar colors/details so anyone who wants to claim will have to identify by those. 🚨Also require proof of ownership from anyone trying to claim (vet papers, old photos etc). ✅ Please give the required 72 hours for the owners to try and find before rehoming. ✅ Check vet references and charge a rehoming fee to anyone looking to adopt so the pet doesn't end up in a bad place. Hope the rightful owner is found soon 🙏
