Adopted a puppy and couldn't be happier!! Update: our Charlie is now 6mos and the best dog ever!

I attempted to go by last week- there are signs of the main road from Dothan but after the left turn, there are no signs to direct you to the facility- wondered about that. Surely the shelter would make every attempt to direct the public to the facility to possibly adopt a pet. The shelter is completely isolated - none one ever know it was there. I finally found it. I opened my car door and the first thing was the horrific smell. I was shocked. I imagined a nice, clean environment- the smell was overwhelming . As I got out of the car, all I could hear were dogs howling in distress- it was awful. I walked inside- the horrific smell inside too. The workers were rude and less than helpful. They acted like I was bothering them for even showing up. I was there to donate items- they pointed toward a wall- just put it there. No thank you, nothing- didn’t even acknowledge me. Walked out- drove to the animal shelter- the same thing- asked if people could volunteer- they said no. The dogs were howling- the place stunk, and I wondered, this place is so isolated, no one would ever know how these people are treating these animals that didn’t ask to be there- broke my heart- i walked to my car- looked at all the big dogs outside in this heat in cages next to woods- mosquitoes- rats- who knows- obviously this facility is not being monitored - thought I was doing a good thing donating- but left devastated!!!

The staff seemed to be more interested in hearing themselves talk versus explaining to the customer what kind of dogs they had for adoption. There was a Min Pin there that I liked but they wouldn't let me have any interaction with him although he wasn't aggressive according to them. I filled out an application but haven't heard a word and it's been about a week. You would think they would be be proactive considering the dogs with no homes and be eager to help place a pet with a loving home. Was very disappointed.

Friendly Staff and very helpful. The animals are obviously well cared for and the facility is clean. Adoption is a smooth process as long as you and the animal are a good fit. We got Cane and he's been wonderful.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Where can you take a big dog that has bitten a child in Henry county

Joy Phillips | Apr 25, 2020
Darkwolf9135 | Apr 26, 2020

As far as i know you cannot take it anywhere. As soon as the shelter knows its bitten a child, the dog will be destroyed. Best thing you can do is put an add of facebook or craigslist to give it to a family whos delt with difficult dogs.

Is it true, that if you have a medicad card you can have your pet spayed or neutered?

I have an almost 3 year old Rottweiller that need a good home. What are you requirements for acceptance?

T T | Apr 26, 2019
Richard James | Apr 27, 2019

Semper Fi Maranda, I would not take to the shelter. 1) They only accept animals they think that they could find homes for, Rots have a tendency to be difficult... However, they may. 2) Several areas i have lived in have not allowed certain dog breeds and Rots have been on all those lists. It would be better trying to advertise on some websites. Someone out there would want it.

My daughters have had 2 dogs that are their world. We recently had to leave an abusive situation and staying at a hotel that doesn't accept pets and we do not have the money to board them. We can not lose them.What do we do? ANY IDEAS? PLEASE

Therealturtle | Apr 25, 2020
Judson Lero | Apr 26, 2020

the best thing to do is find a friend, if you cannot do that I would go to a animal shelter and ask to give them money to be able to shelter them for a little while. And if that does not work out just try to ask family if they can take care of them.
