I FOUND MY BEST FRIEND AT THIS SHELTER!! I had NEVER been to a shelter before. We had got a German Shepherd a few month prior & we could tell she was lonely so randomly one day I decided I wanted to go to a local shelter & rescue our next dog. When we drove up a teenager was walking my future dog in the gated play area & I looked at my fiance & said, “THATS THE ONE!” I had not seen any other dogs or even got out of the car but I knew he was the one. I found out he had just gotten surrendered by his owners THAT DAY, I got SO lucky I randomly decided to go to the shelter. When we went in we waited to play with him next & then I played with some other dogs to get them out of their kennels but even my fiance knew that the dog I wanted was THE ONE! It was love at first site for both of us! I have had Jax for over a year now & could not be happier, he is my buddy, my best friend, my everything. When I seen him shaking in that kennel from fear it broke my heart, he was terrified & confused & when I found out I could not take him home until he got his shots & got neutered & everything I was so sad to leave him there but I knew I had to & when he seen us come back two days later to take him, he was so excited. His name was originally Goliath (even though he’s 15pounds) haha but we changed it to Jax because I kept getting hung up on the word for some reason when saying it. So the first day I went into the shelter the worker originally told me that she had a few people who had already called asking if they had any small dogs so she said that she would have to get back to me before she could let me adopt Goliath/Jax. I was devastated because I knew how bad I wanted him & I just wanted to take him home already & give him all the love and attention he deserves. I gave her my information & the next morning I went back to the shelter to see the puppy again (he was 10months at the time) she told me I couldn’t take him out of the kennel because he was waiting to go to surgery so I went and sat in his kennel with him & held him & then I walked a few other dogs just to get them outside & out of the kennel & when I walked back inside with one of the other dogs she said, “so you want to adopt Goliath,” MY HEART FILLED WITH JOY & I was SO beyond happy & replied, “YES!!!” I signed everything & paid & got to pick him up the next day after his surgery went well. I’ll post a picture. We have been letting his hair grow out over winter so we can get him professionally groomed for summer.

This is our buckeye playing in the snow this past winter,the family dog that JB Ogle stole from us,we could t afford the $300.00 at the time,we went there in person and explained this but it fell on deaf ears,I've called many many times left messages I've e mailed them with no reply, how can they adopt our family dog out knowing he has a home? We have had him his entire life 9yrs all because we didn't have the money thek dog catcher himself knows where buckeye lives,he has come to the house before and picked me up. So honestly bottom line here is you stole our dog

I am from Louisville and drove here to get my newest cat. This process was so quick, easy, and pleasant. The place was clean and stuff was very kind. This is the best pet adoption experience I have had yet. My new kitten is very happy, healthy, and full of energy!

We adopted a 6 mo old kitten this week and Pearl at the Ogle center was so helpful. We had looked other places and the people were not helpful and made us wait a long time to see a pet. We told Pearl what we wanted and she directed us to Greta and said she is the sweetest little cat. We held her and said yes we want her. We could not be more pleased. She has adjusted so well to our home. The place was clean and well run and seemed busy with people coming in while we were there. Highly recommend them if you are looking for a pet.

Recently adopted a new pet from here. He has been a delight. The staff are always helpful and answer all questions. These people have so much to do daily, to take care of all this animals, and yet there the most amazing people! Thank you all for all you do and for giving me a great new boy to love!

I had a terrible experience with JAS a couple of weekends ago. I found the most perfect cat ever. He was long haired and mostly orange in color and a male. But i was on my way to work so i couldn't take him 🏡 right then. So i asked if they could hold him until the next morning. This was after 2:00 in the after noon. So i would be back by 11:00 ,they wouldnt have to hold him for 24 hrs. But still the girl which seemed cold, still would not hold him for me. The next morning i went in there to pick him up, thinking he would still be there, and i was told he had been adopted. My heart just fell. I was devastated. I told the girl that was there the next day that i was willing to pay the fee and everything, but i just couldnt take him home that day. That girl seemed to have some compassion about it and told me she was really sorry. So i went in to see what they may have in there then. So i pulled out this pretty gray longhaired cat. And the cat in the cage next to him starts hissing at him then the next thing i knew the cat attacked me and scratched the side of my face and my arm. If they would have just held the orange cat from the day before. I wouldnt have had to go thru that. Thanks, S.W.
