My wife and I started regularly volunteering. We help walk and socialize with the dogs. We’ve been several times now. We’ve walked probably 3/4 of the dogs there so far. And have met all of them. Not a bad one in the bunch. Sometimes they’re excited when they’re in their kennel, once you go to walk one every one of them has been calm or happy and quiet and just wanted to hang out or play fetch. We can’t own a dog right now with mine and my wife’s living situation but I’d be happy to own any of these lovely dogs. The staff are extremely friendly and care a lot for these animals. I would recommend people not pass up an opportunity to visit, if not bring home one of these lovely animals.

As soon as I walked in the door, the smell of cat urine was atrocious! After all they are full of animals now. Especially cats! I felt so bad for the worker s there. I had to leave immediately as the smell ws very strong. I think the city needs to build a bigger facility for the animals. Also for the workers. They had some really cute animals there. Just stopped by to see the animals and take the dogs for a walk outside the facility.

Such a great place to educate our youth on the importance of pet care, and adoption.

Got our boy, Clyde, from here about five years ago. Was a smooth and speedy process to have him. Couldn't of asked for a more amazing shelter. 🥰🥰

Someone picked up my dog and took it to the shelter. I don’t have facebook and that’s the only place they advertise the pets that come in. My neighbor saw they had my dog and I went in for it and they wouldn’t let me have it back. I filled out the application and everything but they gave it to someone else even thought they knew it was my dog. I would not deal with this place at all. It’s run by a man named Michael that’s missing practical common sense. My child loved our dog to death and was so heartbroken we couldn’t have it back.
