We enjoyed spending time with & trying to choose an animal. We just didn't pick one because it is a little costly to adopt. Sooo many animals that needed loving homes though!

Was told over the phone to come in person to fill out an application for a dog in which the dog was available. Drove 40 miles (80 miles total) to be told that they were “holding” the dog to see if the owner will take him back. This was reg flags for me, most places, once you surrender and animal you do not have precedence over other potential adopters at all. I filled out an application around 10 days ago they said they would get back to me and they haven’t. The dog is still available on the website. The facility though was nice, the lady at the front desk though barely paid attention to us, made us go back to see the dogs by ourselves. Overall bad experience here. We did not like how lack of how unprofessional this place was, filling out an application on a laminated piece of paper, no clipboards. We went elsewhere to find our family member, was approved within an hour there, with a much better experience. It’s a shame, but I will not be returning to West Volusia Humane Society again. I’m sure other people have has better experiences and that’s great, but I just did not. I hope these fur babies find wonderful fur ever homes.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Is there a surrender fee for surrendering your animal there? My landlord found out about my cat and told me I have to either move out or remove the cat. I have kids I can't just move out so I need to let him go but I need to know if there is a fee?

Janice Gerry | Aug 24, 2020
Sherry (Beauty Connect LLC) | Aug 24, 2020

Remove it... Get a garbage bag and a shovel and remove it. Unfortunately, Animal control will not do that for you. If you don't it will smell bad.

How old should kittens be to be adopted. My 8 week old kittens have been eating dry kitten chow and some soft can food. They still like to nurse once or twice a day. Momma seems to like that. It is her first litter.

Due to their insurance carrier, they are not allowed to accept volunteers under the age of 18. My kids wanted to volunteer for the summer and this was their response.

Is your facility a non-kill? We had Arnie in Daytona but they have moved. I am not in need at this time but I like to know where the non-kill shelters are....thank you

Linda Doviak | Aug 25, 2018
Isaiah Schuh | Aug 25, 2018

This location is a non-kill. One of yhe reasons we love them and make donations. Small but better than Halifax for that reason! Recently made renovations to the dog kennels.

Do you have a clinic there to assist people who cant afford to take their pets to veterinarian's for shots or treatment?? For at least discount or low reduced cost!

Yolanda Tirado | Aug 25, 2018
Karen K Clark | Aug 25, 2018

West Volusia humane society does not have any medical staff or supplies on the property. Halifax humane society has the reddinger clinic for low cost spay or neuter. Volusia county has a clinic for that need. 386-736 -2700 ask for spay neuter department of animal control.
