To The Martinsville Henry County Society For The Prevention of Cruelty To Animals. The SPCA of Martinsville-Henry County is a small shelter located in southwest Virginia. Martinsville is the current unemployment capital of Virginia with unemployment hovering at 20%. We are solely supported by our community and receive no federal or state tax dollars. We are very proud of our spay/neuter program which helps those who are elderly, unemployed, or disabled. We have been known to totally subsidize a spay or neuter surgery when economic situations are particularly poor. The SPCA of Martinsville-Henry County has an emergency food shelf for families who cannot afford to feed their pet. We do not euthanize healthy adoptable pets. Our adoption fees include the spay/neuter of the animal, up to date on all shots, microchipping, deworming, heartworm testing on dogs over 6 mos. and feline leukemia/AIDS testing. We pull many of our animals from both Martinsville City Animal Control and Henry County Animal Control. In fact, we have recently developed a partnership with Henry County Animal Control and placed one of our staff at the pound 4 afternoons per week for adoptions. Every staff member is devoted to the work they are doing and we are all grateful for the continued support of this caring community.
We are a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for animals and people in our community. We operate an adoption center and dog park located at 132 Joseph Martin Highway. Shelley Frith Drane Adoption Center Open to Public: Tuesday thru Friday, 10:00am to 6:00pm, Saturday 10:00am to 4:00pm. We are closed on Sunday and Monday. Call 638-PAWS to schedule your visit during closed hours. Dog Park and Walking Trail: Now open to well behaved, properly vaccinated canine citizens during daylight hours. Please leave the park as you found it, by leaving nothing but footprints and taking nothing but pictures. If you are interested in donating animal playground equipment for all to enjoy, please contact us. Here is a sampling of who is available for adoption at 132 Joseph Martin Highway in Martinsville. Within the heart of every stray lies the singular desire to be loved
