I adopted him on august 6th. When I got him he didn’t have a name so I decided on Noah 🖤 I did ask if he had any medical issues I need to worry about it they told me he was perfectly fine as soon as he got in my car he sounded absolutely terrible I thought he may be having a seizure and took him to the vet the next day he indeed has a lot of medical issues one being he had severe trauma to his skull and they believe a piece may have got stuck in his nose but thankfully with the right medication and treatment he will be okay 🖤

I managed to find my best friend, Nugget, here. And it was the easiest, most pleasurable experience. Not just for me, but for my grandson as well. He chose Nugget as the perfect therapy dog for his grandma. The staff at Harris County Pets are friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. Blessings to you all.

1)When I signed the paperwork, I was told that I could pick my dog up the following Sunday due to work(spay was scheduled for Thursday). Was called Wednesday and told that If I don't get her by Friday, they won't hold her anymore even though paperwork was signed (she was on the euthanasia list). 2) she maintained her weight for her first month there but lost 15lbs in two weeks 3) she was put on an EXTREMELY high dose of Trazadone, over double the recommended dose for her body weight. 4) she was listed as being 1year 2months old, then after they did the spay they told me she was actually 3. Not a game changer for us but That's a huge difference in age.

The Houston area has a surplus of animals and they are doing the best they can to help them find permanent homes. They only allow 3 to get seen outside of kennel and they don't have much insight in their personalities. I thought this was understandable but very limiting as personalities outside kennel can be very different and many would be overlooked. They do highlight the 3/3/3 rule which is important to understand if unfamiliar with dogs. Some kennels were dirty but I believe that is just the mess they made between clean ups. Not so messy I would believe they are living in filth/neglected. I was able to take the one I favored out to the play yard after the initial private room greeting and that further confirmed the connection I felt. Adoption holds are only done in person. I was shocked they didn't ask if others were living in my home. They asked about other pets, I assume for vet check, but not people/children. I still went and looked at other dogs at other shelters that day and could have withdrawn my adoption hold over the phone if another was favored but each dog I saw was mentally compared to him and my decision was finalized. There was a bit of confusion on my pickup appointment. Initially told neuter would occur Thursday then was called Tuesday to schedule pickup wed or thur. Scheduled for Thursday and received text confirmation but their computer had me listed as Wednesday pickup. Thankfully they called and I still was able to get my new dog, I would have been very disappointed if an error resulted in him going home with/adopted by someone else. We are still adjusting but I feel very confident in my selection and happy with the process overall.

Nice facility, a huge improvement over the desperately sad wreck it replaced. Helpful staff who brought out the two dogs I was transporting to a rescue group. However, I wish they had taken the two pups for a short walk before loading them into the crate in the back of my car as the poor pups pooped all over the crate they were in. Made a disgusting mess and the pups miserable.

My girlfriend and I first really loved this place. We found a very sweet boy here and were excited to get him but were told he had a stray hold for three days. We were told they don't do surgeries on Friday. We heard back after calling on Monday that surgery was done and scheduled for Tuesday at 4:30 to pick him up. That's fine. We get there on Tuesday at 3:40 and have been here for an hour and a half at this point after being "first in line" to pick up. Others that have come in WAY after have gotten their pets before us. Getting updates on the phone has been insane and we haven't even heard from a vet tech that we were supposed to have heard from almost an hour ago. Ridiculous. Thank God we're getting our dog eventually and won't likely need one in the near future because it won't be here that we get out next one.
