They were great. I just wish I could have gone back with my dog but everyone was wonderful there. Tucker on the way home was happy. Lord of treats and the best boy ever!

Horrible place wouldn't take my worst dog there. I was promised cremation within two weeks of being paid and it's been four weeks and he's still sitting in a cooler. These people royally suck. If you care anything about your animals do not take them there

In January of this year we had to make the gut-wrenching decision to put our sweet fur-baby down to rest, and the staff I encountered at the Spokane Humane Society were phenomenal! They were able to accommodate us on a Sunday, and they were SO patient with me while I was bawling hysterically. They wouldn’t allow me to be in the room while they put her down (it’s legally prohibited, from what I understood) but they did allow me to hold my baby while they sedated her so that she was never conscious of me not being there, and that was just as well. Thank you SO much for that, Amy! We chose to take her home and bury her under my favorite tree, and they brought her out discreetly wrapped in a little blanket. Putting a pet down is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do, and their patience and compassion was so greatly appreciated.

Aiden will not let you adopt a cat if you let him outside. He says the sparrow population is in danger and the cats are to blame. I found him disingenuous and laughable because he argued that I didn't even know the cat I wanted to adopt. So it was apparent he was holding that particular cat for someone else. The dark haired woman sitting behind the desk on the two visits I made is rough and tries to appear intimidating, she isn't enjoying her time there. These humane societies are not affiliated with the main Humane Society. It's a name like any other according to the Washington DC location headquarters. Anyone can open and license a "Humane Society" business name, label it a non-profit business and operate it. This location is in reality just THAT generic regardless of how long they've been in operation. This is my unbiased experience without rose colored glasses. Don't need this negative hole in the wall a part of my life, donate to SCRAPS!

The staff here are obviously protective X compassionate to the animals housed here. The volunteer process is extremely thorough as well, with highly educational modules. Their cat areas are cozy and make interacting with/observing them easy. It's difficult to walk through the kennel, but the dogs, though stressed, are clearly cared for. Setting up a meet and greet with the dogs is easy; there is a room specifically for this purpose with a bench, a chair and a sink (and treats). We had a great time this year for the National Day of Mourning taking one of the pups out to the run to play in the snow. We highly recommend the Spokane humane Society as a place to give back to these innocent animals who are sadly and too often subject to our whims.

The Spokane humane society have a bunch of really good people. They work very hard to get good homes to the animals they get in there . They help for people that can't afford food for their animals and the vet clinic is at a much lower price then any of the other vets .
