Play yard attendants are responsible for watching and playing with our adoption dogs in the designated play yard. Adoption dogs have playtime in the morning and rescue dogs have playtime in the afternoon. Dogs that have been assessed as dog-friendly by shelter employees are allowed to play together in the play yard. Play yard attendants will also be responsible for cleaning up after each dog, spraying down the yard, and disinfecting all used toys after playtime. **Red level attendants can play with rabies-vaccinated and behavioral-assessed rescue dogs.

About Cabarrus County Animal Shelter

Mission Statement
Staff at the Cabarrus County Animal Shelter are committed to working with local partners to find temporary and permanent homes for adoptable animals housed at the facility. To determine if an animal is adoptable, shelter staff must rule out any underlying conditions and/or temperaments that present safety risks to the community. Euthanasia is a last resort. When necessary, euthanasia is carried out with respect to the animals by a licensed veterinarian, following best-practice guidelines for direct injection set by the NC Department of Agriculture. It is important to Cabarrus County that all animals at the shelter receive care and compassion.
