★★★☆☆ 3.0 Cindy Reed · Dec 2025

I find this place to unorganized with different people saying different things. I question their motives and if they truly have the animals best interest in mind. A person by the name of Devin was very rude and unhelpful even threatened us. We went there to adopt a dog that we had placed an application to adopt. Paid them 500 and they said we should foster because they would then take care of shots and getting the dog fixed when it came time. So we agreed reluctantly. On the 2 nd visit for shots. I ask if I could wait until the animal was one year old before being fixed was told that was fine.

This is by far the most loving and professional humane society. If I could write it at 10 I would! Everyone should donate to this organization. They were kind and patient in a difficult situation. It lifts my heart so much to know if there are organizations like this out there!

We adopted Rye from here, and all the staff was very knowledgeable and helpful in the process. You can tell the love they all have in providing care for these dogs and cats. I would definitely recommend this rescue if you're looking to adopt a pet friend!

Went to get information about getting my dogs spayed and neutered. They were so helpful and friendly. They had also helped me with some dog food and that has been a huge life saver! I love everything about what they stand for and do. Thank you for doing what you do for our community, and all our fur babies.. Keep being AMAZING! Here's my fur babies you helped feed. Thank you so much!

The facility is beautiful and well maintained. You can tell that all the staff wants to be here, they are all helpful and so attentive to the animals. I submitted an application for adoption online and was able to book an appointment to meet a few dogs and hopefully find a fur baby to love and take home. And I did! The process was very straightforward and I took my new buddy home a few days later.
