Welcome!
Lake Country SPCA is a 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization and no-kill shelter headquartered in Clarksville, VA.
We are dedicated to helping and finding placement for abandoned, abused, neglected pets, as well as litters of puppies and kittens that people find as strays, surrender, or are held by animal control.
Pet of the week
LEANA
Leana is a wonderful, loving, medium size dog, about 4 years old, who came to LCSPCA 12/2023 after being found as an abandoned stray, under-weight, heartworm positive and pregnant. She went into foster care and gave birth to 9 puppies! All got adopted so Leana had heartworm treatment and got spayed and vaccinated. Leana is a mixed breed dog, possibly Pit Bull and Beagle, who is as sweet and darling as they come! After being rescued and all fixed up medically, she became a vibrant, sassy, silly, love-bug! She enjoys Nyla bones, toys, playing fetch, going on walks, and gets along with most dogs as long as they aren't the dominant type. Leana has seen cats and not reacted but has not lived amongst them. This pup is smart, social and gets all kissy-faced and waggy-tailed around little kids. Leana is crate trained and barks to go out to the bathroom. She is generally healthy but due to having had heartworms in the past, the vet says she'll likely need ½ pill of Benazepril every 12 hours for life, which she takes very well with a bit of peanut butter. If you are interested in meeting Leana, please email lakecountryspca@yahoo.com or call LCSPCA at 434-374-8076 so her foster mom can arrange a meet and greet
About Us
As a private shelter, we do not receive any government or agency funding; it is only through donations, grants, and adoption fees that we are able to provide the care needed for our shelter pets. We’d love your help and support in this important mission to cover our monthly expenses of roughly $25,000. Our expenses include employee salaries, utilities, building maintenance, veterinarian care, spay and neuter, food, bedding, vaccines, cleaning, and supplies.
On average, Lake Country SPCA rescues over 700 animals per year and adopts out an average of 600 animals per year.
Our History
Began with a group of people who were concerned with the number of stray animals roaming the streets in Clarksville. In September of 2002, they rescued the stray animals, keeping them safe and cared for in their homes and backyards. Today, we are in a facility that was built in 2015, equipped to shelter, provide medical care, and spay and neuter over 700 animals per year. It is through our generous and dedicated sponsors, donors, volunteers and employees who have made our successful journey possible!
Our Mission
Is to enrich the lives of animals through rehabilitation, protection, care, education, and adoptions to FUR-ever loving homes.
Our Vision
Is to inspire a community to nurture and celebrate the animal-human bond, promoting and supporting spaying and neutering. We envision a day where every animal has a responsible, loving, caring home; where every pet is happy, healthy and safe from harm; and where no pet suffers from neglect, cruelty, or abuse.
