Worst shelter I have ever been to. I went with a friend to try to look at a cat we wanted.

I’ve been so impressed how everyone there is so caring for all of their animals. They work hard to find homes and help animals in need. I began dog fostering for them this year and they are amazingly helpful, working as a team. The shelter is very clean. The staff and volunteers are wonderful!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Derek Sheppard · Jan 2026

People are polite but, seemed too preoccupied to be bothered with helping answer questions about the dogs. A "self guided" walk through (try to guess what all the signage means) or *order from the book" type of experience. Animals seemed decently cared for from what we could find.
