I adopted a beautiful boy dog. Staff was very human, but yet very helpful and professional. Until it came time to take him back cause of the violate nightmare the dog had. That the staff forgot to tell me about. They also forgot to mention that he's a one way walker. Walks with you until its time to go back. Then you had to carry him back or go get the truck to load him in to get him back to the house. Then they refused to approve me for another dog, except for the old and dying. I don't want to get attached to it , then have to put it down,too. Then when i asked for my $100 back( adoption fee) they refused, saying they would approve me for a sick and dying dog. Take it or leave it.they said. I feel sorry for the dogs out there. They all deserve a happy home but only if the staff approves of you and your living conditions. This is the last place on earth to adopt a dog from. Watch out or the staff will steal your money too. But unfortunately, the dogs are who pays for this with their lives. I give the place zero(0) stars.

Very disappointed in our visit here. Never took us back to see the dogs but brought out a 14 year old small dog that they were pushing on my mother who was looking for a small dog around 3-5 years old. One girl kept saying he was only around 10 while the other clearly said 14. They said that was all they had in the category she was looking for but never offered to take us back. If my mom had found a dog she was interested in it wouldn't have mattered if it was a pup or 5 years old. One less dog went home that day.

There are some nice people that work here to try to better the lives of homeless animals. Then there are rude and inconsiderate people that have no clue how to deal with the public. They used to have a vet on staff. I did not know that they no longer did when I called to make an appointment for my cat who has been there before with a minor toe injury. The rude lady who answered the phone acted as if I knew this was the case. The place is full of politics and then there’s the idle rich who volunteer and act as if their works will get them into heaven. So sorry. Sorry for all the animals whose lives get left in the balance due to these incompetence.

Just got a kitten here, and 2 of my dogs go to the clinic here, and they are awesome. The Harry Potter fan, forgot her name, is amazing, she went above and beyond to help with an issue I have with one dog that has bad anxiety and allergies.

Kaylie Morales | Sep 6, 2018
Kandiss Kelly | Sep 5, 2020

Declawing messes with a cats well being. It's sort of like if they took out your knuckles in your toes. It causes issues for them down the road and I'm hoping it's going to hopefully be illegal one day.

Richard Carpenter | Feb 7, 2022

You will have to go to the Humane Society facility and talk to the adoption staff. There is no one set adoption fee. The fee is relevant to the animal being adopted. Dr. Carpenter

Do you have a cat named peanut or a orange and white cat

Toy Tiger | Nov 9, 2021
Richard Carpenter | Nov 9, 2021

You will have to contact the Humane Society directly. Only the senior staff is involved with in taking animals and most frequently animals are brought by someone other than the owner, therefore, minimal information is provided about the animal. If you have lost your cat the only way to know for sure is to call and go to the facility and look at the cats yourself.

Dizneyprincess92 (Dabz420 princessdg) | May 8, 2022
Brian Bennett | May 8, 2022

They don't hate cast they're just so many feral cats around in this area cuz people will get cats and just drop them off forever and let them roam free so that's why they are neutering and spading cats it's not that they hate them it's just we're overrun with cats

How often should you get the DAPPV vaccine for an adult dog? What about bordetella?

what | Feb 7, 2022
Richard Carpenter | Feb 7, 2022

Most DAPPV vaccines are now accepted as three year duration vaccinations - not all veterinarians accept that, however, the manufacturers are stating that off the record, especially for dogs older than 2 years and have had booster vaccinations annually. Personally that is my personal protocol for my own dog. Bordetella is a different matter - to date the best research I have reviewed indicates the best of the bordetella vaccines last barely a year. Annual boosters should be the standard protocol. Dr. Carpenter

We would like to adopt a cat but are concerned with what to do in case of a hurricane. We leave the area in such an event but traveling with a cat can be problematic. Do you have any suggestions as to boarding or alternative procedures?

Woolly Bully | Sep 5, 2021
Sarah Childers | Sep 5, 2021

The best person to talk to is your vet. Incase of a hurricane it's best to take them with you. The vet can go over options with you about how to make traveling less stressful for kitty. They can also make sure you are prepared incase of an emergency.
