Frederick Animal Control & Adoption Center
Frederick County has one animal shelter on Rosemont Avenue; The Frederick Animal Control and Adoption Center (FCAC). FCAC cares for abandoned and relinquished animals through funding from Frederick County Government. Each year, several thousand animals come into the shelter. While a few hundred of these pets are eventually reunited with their owners, the remaining thousands need new homes. Because the FCAC accepts all unwanted, injured, stray and sick animals in the county, we are often unable to find homes for all the pets in need.
