What happened to him? Was he hit or has he mange?

I hate animal abuse as much as anyone. I used to work/volunteer at your shelter. But don't be too quick to judge. The owner could be elderly/in poor health and on a fixed income, unaware of resources that are available to help. They may actually love this dog and feel guilty about not being able to give it the care it needs...just saying.

Is this a husky? There’s a girl who is missing 2 huskies from blountville area that her dog sitter stole from her. (I’m sure someone else can remember it better than me). I wonder if this could be one of them?

I found a dog in Kingsport on American Way I can't keep him but I brought him home to feed him until I am able to bring him to the shelter. My boss let me bring him inside if I promised to take him home and help him find a loving home.

This guy was found on BelleBrook Rd in Bristol. He's been running loose for at least a couple weeks. Anyone recognize him? He had a collar on so I'm guessing he wasn't just dumped.

Sullivan County Animal Control recently responded to a neglect case involving four dogs in Bloomingdale area. All four dogs are now safe and receiving care.
An investigation is underway, and charges are pending. We appreciate the community’s continued support in reporting neglect and helping us protect animals in need.

Enjoy the slow mo video ♥️

Thank you for pursuing charges: it takes a lot of perseverance and hard work to hold people accountable. Sincere “hats off” to you!

Thank you for rescuing these babies ❤️

Bless you for saving them.

Did the owners find this dog? I was the one who called animal control and I’ve been so worried about this sweet baby! I hope they were good owners. That poor baby was not in good condition 😞

Go see if it has a chip in it at a vet.

This little guy runs on Bristol Caverns, too. I usually see it in the curve near Holston Valley Middle School.

And he runs with a big dog, that has tried to bite me about 3 times in my own yard.

We picked up some beautiful mums. Be sure to go out and support The Animal Shelter of Sullivan County

10/12/25
In regards to the two thin dogs currently circulating Facebook:

The Sullivan County Animal Control (Animal Shelter of Sullivan County) is working with the Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office to investigate a case involving alleged animal neglect. This is an active investigation, and details are limited to protect the case.
All animals involved are under the supervision and care of Sullivan County Animal Control, receiving proper medical attention and support.
We appreciate the community’s concern and the help of our local veterinarians, deputies, shelter staff, and volunteers. Updates will be shared as the investigation allows. Please consider emailing the shelter for updates as opposed to calling; this keeps our phone lines available for others in need.
We understand that these types of things are distressing to witness, but please refrain from harassing individuals and allow the proper authorities to do their job. One person’s account of the situation does not accurately portray the entire picture; that is why a proper investigation is necessary.

We thank you for being the eyes and ears for animals in Sullivan County.

Supervisor, Sullivan County Animal Control

If you could elaborate or hint as to *which* case this involves, it might help ease the tension and worry of the community and take the pressure off the phone and email lines. For example, is this about the two larger emaciated dogs which was very recently posted about?

I am familiar with rodents and other small exotics along with Kendra Hall ...if you guys ever have a situation that involves them please reach out to us! She runs A to Z Rescue in mount caramel and we are willing to transport if needed. Lizards...rats...mice...birds...any type of exotic...farm animal...or domesticated pets...she has 5 acres and is also working on it constantly to improve and upgrade. Adds stuff weekly for new animals to arrive.

What about the 3 dog that was in the post? There was 3 a brown one a white one and one curly tan?
