The Aryan Molossus
Once a Warrior, Today a Loyal Companion and a Family-Protector
Should you ever decide that you need a big dog, with an imposing posture, which can look threatening and majestic at the same time, the Aryan Molossus is definitely one breed that you must take into consideration.
The Armant
The Egyptian Dog with a Lot of Love to Give
To some of you, the Armant is better known as the “Egyptian Sheepdog” and, just as the name suggests it, it was bred to be a herding dog. However, in ancient times, it was used mostly as a guard dog. This breed is originally from Egypt and named after the town of Armant. Its loyalty and agility are the two main characteristics which make this dog special.
The Atlas Terrier
The Small Dog With a Massive Dose of Energy
At a glimpse, the Atlas Terrier can be easily mistaken with the Jack Russell Terrier. However, there are some differences that may help you tell these two cousins apart. Before deciding to buy or adopt a dog of this breed, there are some things that you have to take into consideration. Unfortunately, this is quite a rare breed of dogs in our days.
Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie
It Is Impossible Not to Love Them
Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie are the smallest dogs in the Anglos-Francais category. However, the name „Petite”, meaning „small”, is not at all referring to the size of the dogs, but to the game they are after. Even if they've been around since the 16th century, today, these dogs are not easy to find. So if you have decided to adopt one, you can be sure that you will have a unique pet.

Animal Shelter details for Yadkin County Humane Society Please visit Yadkin County Humane Society and adopt a homeless pet
You have reached the shelter page for Yadkin County Humane Society. Yadkin County Humane Society is located in yadkinville, North Carolina. If you have information to add or update for Yadkin County Humane Society, please click here and let us know.
The Yadkin County Humane Society (YCHS) was established in October of 1990. A handful of members reorganized and YCHS began to gain momentum as an active organization in February 0f 2003. Since that time, the membership has grown steadily.
YCHS is a volunteer organization. We do not have a shelter or office space. All animals available for adoption are in foster homes with our members. Since we do not have staff or a building, our administrative costs are very low. This means more of the funds raised and donated go to the care of the animals.
Yadkin County is rural – rabies is more prevalent, and fewer companion animals are vaccinated and altered than in more urban areas. In order to combat these problems, we work diligently to see that low-cost spay/neuter and rabies clinics are available, and a smaller subset of our members (approximately ten homes at this time) provide foster care to animals that would otherwise be euthanized until they can be adopted into loving, responsible homes. There is no “time limit” in foster care; adoptable animals stay with us until they find their forever home.
The small number of foster homes, coupled with the fact that finding a permanent home for those currently in foster care, means that all of our foster homes are sometimes full. When this occurs we refer to other rescue groups, work with the person who needs to surrender to provide the foster home for us, or place the animal(s) on a waiting list.
Hundreds of dogs and cats are rescued and adopted through Yadkin County Humane Society each year. See our 2004/2005 Service Statistics for more details about how YCHS has been at work in the community. With your help, through adopting, fostering, and donations, more animals can be saved.
