Rachel and Tony run a clean and loving shelter. Great shelter but I noticed another review states this shelter does NOT euthanize! I worked here and unfortunately it does euthanize! That's why we stress the importance of spaying and neutering! Please remember when u get a furbaby it's forever not until you no longer want them!

Found a stray dog in MHC. The animal control officer with the MHC police was not working that day. Called the county and they refused to come get the dog. I will not support them anymore.

I had lost my dog and saw on online that he had been taken to the shelter. When I went to pick him up the shelter was closed to the public due to them doing some cleaning. However they didn't make me wait until the next day. They allowed me to go in and bring my dog home. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Questions & Answers

I have 3 stray kittens and the mama to get spayed and neutered. My vet quoted $432 each. Can you tell me where I can go to get them Spayed, Neutered and their shots for less? Thank you

Think the Humane Society on Hibbs Road will do inexpensively.

Yes you can

How old do you need to be to adopt a dog here, 18 or 21?

Raymond McMale | Dec 17, 2021
April Fuchs | Dec 17, 2021

The application asks if you are at least 21 and who will be responsible for the pet.

My dog has cancer, I plan to let him stay home till the end. If it gets really bad and need to put down can the sheltor do it or do I need to go to vet?

Pat & Deb Duff | Oct 18, 2021
Sara Wesley | Oct 18, 2021

I'm so sorry to hear. 😢 I THINK if you take him here, they will likely treat him like the other animals until he dies. The vet will put him down for you. You can call and ask them tho!

How old do u have to be to work here

Carteret County Humane Society | Sep 14, 2019

It ranges from $70-$125. Depending on dog/cat and spay/neutered. Sometimes there are specials going on at a reduced cost!!

Does this place have any pug puppies for adoption? I'm just wondering so I can get one in January buy I'm not sure if they have any.

heykhiya | Sep 14, 2019
Bradley Lee | Sep 14, 2019

They have new puppies that come in as they are rescued. Best bet would be to stop by and fill out an application for adoption and then make periodic stops to see the puppies. As a volunteer I've seen many dogs come through and get adopted and many are puppies rescued or surrendered.

What kind of dog food & cat food would you like for contribution?

Catherine Ford | Sep 14, 2019
Bradley Lee | Sep 14, 2019

They prefer grain free purina but also take in other types and distribute them to those in need to keep their animals healthy!

Someone posted that you have a young female fullblooded GS is she still available?

Marilyn McDeavitt | Sep 14, 2018
Matt Sprague | Sep 14, 2018

Yes she is s still available as of yesterday she will need to be and only pet and they have probably 50 applications on her already her name is Prada your best bet is to go to the Humane Society and check her out for yourself and even if she is not a good fit there are lots of other dogs available for adoption

Dottie Pinkham | Sep 14, 2018
Rhonda Hastings | Sep 14, 2018

Depends on what they have available. But they must be weaned from their momma. Usually 8-10 weeks.
