My dog passed away three days again and Mercer County Animal Shelter was nice enough to allow me to donate his belongings. They were very kind and helpful.

I adopted my sweet little Gem from this place! She's a great little pup! We went during their Halloween event and only paid $40 for adoption fees. They were sweet enough to give us 3 pup bones for her and she got a little Halloween bandana to boot! She was so cute and I love this little girl! Thanks guys!!

We drove out there to look for a puppy, they didn't have any but the staff was very friendly & helpful, offering to show us other dogs that were available. BTW, pet finder results are not accurate at all when looking online for animals, we found this out on this visit also.

We saw an article in the news about the overcrowding and decided to go look and see if we could keep one from getting euthanized.... upon arriving the lady at the front was nice but this place has issues. Everytime I asked a question about a dog the response was "idk". How do they plan on finding homes if they don't know the breed, don't know if they are good with other dogs, cats, etc, don't know if they're potty trained or if they have any aggressive behaviors? No one is going to bring home a dog they know absolutely nothing about and take the risk of injuring children or other animals. If you know a dog may bite there should be some type of sign or at least someone notifying people. My husband tried to pet a dog that bites males and 4 staff members said nothing but the sponsor finally saw and immediately notified him. The dogs are being punished for having a poorly run facility. I understand they have too many but this was one of the most unorganized shelters I have seen. We ended up going to the Raleigh humane society and getting our perfect Lil man. Why? Because staff knew the dogs. They had information that was necessary to adopt him. This facility needs help and it's not fair to the animals there.
