First time visiting, and I walked out with a puppy. Knowledgeable, friendly staff who were happy to answer all my questions. My fiance and I have a dog at home. They offered us the opportunity to bring our dog there to see how he would do with a puppy. Upon purchase, they gifted us the same dog food our puppy had been eating. They told us to mix it with the food we wanted to start her on to help her stomach. Puppy was up to date on shots. I do have to take her back for another one soon, which is discounted and administered by the certified veterinarian there. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would buy a puppy and/or older dog from there again.
I love this place! They are a small overflow no-kill shelter which means they help other shelters in the area minimize overcrowding. It is astounding what they accomplish with a staff of only 3 people and a handful of volunteers. I started volunteering here about 6 months ago and they are very flexible with their shifts. If you are thinking about helping with pets, this is a great place to get involved. You can spend time with the animals but also help with a million other operation things that always need to be done. Volunteering behind the scenes I see how much they care and the work required just to operate a small rescue like this. Daily cleaning of all the animal spaces. Daily cleaning of everything else. Daily feeding and scooping poop and changing litter and washing bowls and sanitizing everything all the time! And they run a vaccination clinic! If you are thinking of volunteering, do it here. If you are thinking of adopting, do it here. If you are thinking of donating to an animal rescue organization, do it here. (They are too small to qualify for many of the animal welfare grants available.) This place is great and worthy of your time!
Was a great experience. I was greeted & checked in, they have great alternatives to rawhide chew bones and best of all my pup didn’t flinch or even feel his combo vac shots because the tech was so gentle and quick- will be making a donation and purchase soon! Thank you
We got our cute kitty here! A year later, she’s still such a sweet, healthy pet! The employee who helped us was great!
I am shocked that I didn't rate this awesome shelter before this. We adopted our dog, Sassy, 2.5 years ago from them. Highly recommend!! They are so very dedicated to all of their animals. When we were looking for a dog, they were the most knowledgeable about each dog that was in their care. I really appreciated that when we did adopt a dog from them, that they took the time to talk to me about what to expect with my particular new dog. They even gave us a free bag of dog food to help with the transition to whatever brand of dog food we had at home.
We've adopted both of our dogs from here. We have used their boarding service when we are out of town for vacation. Affordable boarding and they do a good job with the animals.
