With the lifting of the indoor mask mandate, face coverings are no longer required when visiting the Adoption Center. The Adoption Center remains closed to walk-in visitors. Adoptions will continue by appointment only. The weekly rabies clinic continues by appointment. Lost pets may still be reclaimed by calling 240-773-5666 or emailing AdmissionsMCASAC@montgomerycountymd.gov.
