All they care about is getting that adoption fee. They will adopt you a dog that will ruin your life and try to bite your children but say they are children friendly. But leave all that out at adoption and tell you how great they are. Should really be more honest about the dogs your adopting out. I’ve never even seen a shelter adopt dogs out to literally anyone so quickly usually takes days and home visit, back to only caring about the money. What’s new in this world though.

I adopted the cutest little black 9 week old kitten named Branch last week. I changed his name to Jet Blackson. It took a few days for him to come out of his shelter shell, but He is everything you could want. Sweet, cuddly, cute, sassy. There aren’t enough words to describe how great he is. Everyone should adopt a animal from the humane society. He had all of his shots and was nuetered and microchiped. He gets along great with my mothers shitzu. He is getting a lot of attention and love. There was so many more cats I wish I could adopt as well. Thank you to the human society for providing me with such a wonderful pet.

Just adopted a super sweet and very loving cat named Dot she's 4 years old and we gave her a forever home. They were very kind and low adoption fee were so glad we got this cat.

Super friendly staff. Call before going in. We wanted to see several specific animals. But their restrictions disqualified us. The one we got to see was not even one we planned to see. We understand wanting the best home. But to be denied to "see" an animal because it is hyper and we have a child under 14 uears old? That should have been our choice to make. We have a fenced in 1/2 acre for the right animal. We met a 7 year old animal and was told she just likes to lay around.

How do I adopt a dog?

Susan Winslow | Sep 11, 2020
Debra Pastuszak | Sep 11, 2020

The most important process is recognizing the commitment to a dog's care ( ie: walking the dog at least twice a day, healthy diet ( no human food ) and annual medical checkups ( affordability of pet meds and or surgery )...size of dog can be demanding if you choose a dog that requires a lot of exercise ..the Humane Society will have you fill out paperwork to ensure you find a dog that is a good match for you. I am happy you have decided to give a dog a second chance if a loving home. .enjoy ..

To my knowledge the Vero Beach has nothing to do with licensing. That I believe to be a county function. I really don't know anything about flea dipping. I would give them a call.

What is a patron pet? Also when they say they recommend dogs for children over 14 will they refuse to adopt a dog to you if you have a toddler?

DiamondRusst | Sep 12, 2019
Humane Society of Vero Beach & Indian River County | Sep 12, 2019

A Patron Pet is an animal who is "very likely" to be adopted quickly because they are "in demand". Smaller dogs and specific breeds of animals fall into this category. If you are interested in a specific dog, we suggest you talk with one of our adoption counselors who are skilled in knowing the dog well enough to know how well they will do in a particular home environment.

Do they perform home checks for dogs?

DiamondRusst | Sep 12, 2019
Humane Society of Vero Beach & Indian River County | Sep 12, 2019

No, we have a adoption counselor meet with the adopters at the Shelter.

How long do they keep the dog before putting them to sleep?

Kacki Little | Sep 12, 2018
Humane Society of Vero Beach & Indian River County | Sep 12, 2018

We do not put a timelimit on how long an animal can stay with us. We do not turn away any animal - we are an open admission shelter. We are the only animal shelter in Indian River County that promises to accept all animals, regardless of age, health, behavior, or adoptability. We also promise to provide a full range of services to keep animals "out of the Shelter" and in loving homes.

Will the Humane Society be taking in pets during the Hurricane?

David Monrreal | Sep 12, 2017
Jeanette Donaldson | Sep 12, 2017

Yes-but I urge you not to surrender your pet, they take AWFUL care of animals, and they rarely get adopted. And your pet is your family.
