Cheatham County Animal Control is a County Government facility that receives nearly 1200 animals per year with room to house only 100 at a time. Only four full time and three part time staff members clean, feed, treat, bathe, intake, answer phones, and make onsite calls for: at large, cruelty, neglect, and all other issues. Cheatham County is over 360 square miles and is filled with unwanted animals. Our county compliance on vaccinations, spay/neuter, and safety of animals is low. We are leading our staff and our community toward a culture change - which will take time - time our animals do not always have on their sides. We rely on Rescues, Adopters, Donations and Education to do the very best we can to care for the many animals we receive daily. Your help is needed and appreciated. Working toward making Cheatham County an Animal Friendly County! The adoption fee covers the animals spay/neuter, rabies shot and all vaccinations while they are in our care. If you would like to volunteer, call or come in and fill out an application and find out what you can do to help these animals.

Stewie is missing a few teeth which gives him his signature snarl, but what he lacks in teeth he makes up for in love.

This old man is affectionate, playful, and easygoing. He doesn’t mind other cats or respectful dogs. If you give him a soft bed, sunbeam, string toy, and lots of pets he will love you forever.

Stew is in a foster home so reach out if you’d like to schedule a time to meet him.

Staying at home for fall break and need a temporary snuggle buddy as the days (hopefully) get cooler?

Sign up for short-term fostering and give a cat or dog a shelter break!

Fall break fostering helps us learn about an animal’s personality in a home and gives us great photo content to promote them. All supplies provided and you choose what days to pick up and drop off.

Sign up here, and we will reach out with next steps.

PS: If you’d like to foster sooner than fall break, there’s always a need to reach out to get started.

These two sweet girls, Alarm and Cuckoo, did not get adopted today. The rest of the Clock Litter has found their forever homes, but Alarm and Cuckoo are hoping they find their families soon! They are 18 weeks old and are the best girls! Their foster families have all had great things to say about them - they have picked up on potty training so fast! Both are very smart and are eager to please. We are extending our $20 adoption fee for these two. If you are interested in meeting them, please text (615) 924-1374 to coordinate a meet and greet.
Please share Cuckoo and Alarm so your friends can see they are still available.

Have you ever wanted to own a Shar Pei, but you’re allergic to dogs? You’re in luck.

Garfield has all the soft, squishy back wrinkles of a Shar Pei without ever needing walks, trips to the dog park, or someone standing outside in the rain waiting for him to p**p.

Garfield is 4 years old, neutered, microchipped, and ready to go home! He’s good with dogs, cats, and kids, making him a very convenient wrinkle delivery system for just about any household.

Come meet Garfield tomorrow and take him home for just $10!

Cash or check. Indoor-only home required.

Puppies, puppies and more PUPPIES!
All are available for adoption Saturday from 11-1 at the shelter. These puppies will be a special adoption fee of $20. Puppies are adopted on a first come, first serve basis, so if you have your eye on a puppy come right at 11am. All puppies have been in foster homes for a few weeks, so they are used to a home setting and we have lots of information for them onsite tomorrow at the shelter!
If you’re not interested in adopting, come meet them and get your puppy breath fix. If you’re not able to come to the shelter in Pegram, TN tomorrow, please give them a share! If you’re not up for sharing, consider a donation to SCAMP to help cover some of the vetting so we can offer $20 adoption fees and get these deserving puppies in their forever homes.
See you tomorrow 🐾🐾🐾

We have three more puppies for you to meet!
The pizza topping litter 🍕🍕🍕
First up is Mushroom - he is a gorgeous chocolate color. He is dog and cat friendly, and he would love a house with big dogs to play with.
Pepperoni is next and he is a handsome black and white lab mix. He is 17 weeks and about 30lbs. He loves snuggles on the couch!
Black Olive is our sweet scruffy-eared girl. She’s a bit smaller than the boys, but she’s the perfect princess.
These three will be at the shelter from 11-1 with an adoption fee special of $20.
Come meet the Pizza Topping litter on Sam’s Creek in Pegram. 🍕🍕
