Souris Valley Animal Shelter

Souris Valley Animal Shelter Creating a better world for pets and people by advocating for animals & moving our community forward. Our current intake priorities:
1.

Souris Valley Animal Shelter is proud to be a no-kill shelter. We will not euthanize an animal to make space in our shelter. To maintain our no-kill status, we operate on managed intakes. We do not accept more animals into our shelter care than we have space and resources available. City of Minot impounded animals
2. Ward County Sheriff’s Department impounded animals
3. Non-contracted law enforcem

ent emergency (neglect, abuse, hoarding)
4. Emergency housing programs
5. Animals previously adopted from SVAS that need to be returned to rescue
6. Non-contracted strays (Law enforcement or Good Samaritan)
7. Owner surrender for a military member that is either deploying or PCS’ing to a post where the animal cannot go with
8. Owner surrender for owner death or health issues
9. Transfer in from an over capacity rescue/shelter/pound in the state of ND
10. Owner surrender for any other reason

Requests for intake assistance always exceed the available space in our rescue. Our priority order is meant to assist animals and people in the most vulnerable situations first. With the City of Minot animal impound now at SVAS, our availability to assist lower priority intakes is very limited. For those cases, please seek other options if you need assistance with rehoming. For lost or stray pets within Minot city limits, please contact Minot Police non-emergency number at 701-852-0111. While we house the City of Minot animal impound in our shelter, we cannot accept an animal into pound care with the approval of Minot PD. Outside of a Minot city limits, please contact your local law enforcement agency. We do operate a Facebook group for reuniting lost pets and their people. Please also check and post information about your lost or found pet in this group. Valley Animal Shelter Community Pets
