The lady in the front was nice. The place is really clean and neat except for the sad noises and smells when you arrive. Just dogs barking, crying trying to get attention. A lot of the dogs are so depressed looking. I'm not sure why they don't take them outside for a bathroom break, each stall had poop in it which means they've been in their cells for hours, when I came in to see them at 3:00P.M. It has an eerie feel, like an animal prison full of cages. The cats are in small kennels and they are creatures of running and jumping around and need space. Thank God only about half of the spots were full with dogs because I'm pretty sure this is a kill shelter. I hope they're doing everything they can to get them all adopted.
I had recently rescued a female pit bull and couldn't find a good home for her, especially after the terrible wake due to Hurricane Helen. I had to make a decision to keep her and they helped to provide leash, harness, food and treats. A personal thank you to Walita, she made me feel so much comfort in my situation.
This shelter specifically is a high volume shelter and I know workers do the very best they can BUT please make sure the correct microchip numbers are listed. I drove 2.5 hours last week to adopt this sweet boy. I registered the microchip number provided on my adoption paperwork. My vet discovered that was not the correct number. They even called 24Hr Pet watched who confirmed that as well. ANYONE who adopts from this location verify your pets chip number!!!
I just rescued a puppy from here. Staff was welcoming and very helpful. Especially the volunteers. All the staff seem very passionate about what they do and want to make sure you get a pet that fits you and your home! Thanks for all of your support. Hudson is happy to find a home! :)
A huge shout out to Phil Anderson!!! I rescued a dog in the side of the road today. He came to get the dog, and he was kind and compassionate. He was very informative on what would happen to the sweet dog . He saw how upset I was, upon hearing what happens to the animals …. He called me about 20 min later, to tell me that they found the owners !! I was very stressed ! He took the time out of his day, to make sure I was ok. Also, the 2 911 operators, I spoke with were also incredible! A huge thank-you, to all the animal control officers !! We appreciate your service
Thank you, Kathy and Matt for assisting my fiancé and myself with our new edition “Sassy Paws”, as we definitely chose the right name for her lol. Yall both made our experience much easier and we truly appreciate it. May God bless
