Got two pups from here. It is so sad to see how many dogs they have to care for because of the huge influx they get of animals. You can see they are trying very hard to take care of everything dispute being understaffed and over run with abandoned pets. I found the staff to be very friendly and kind even though they were so busy. They have specials where the pets cost less and they even give you vouchers to take to the vet to help with the cost of sterilising and rabies vaccination. I highly recommend going here and giving a pup a forever home. You might have a little wait time in the lobby but just be patient they are worth it!

I have called many times on a loose dog. It has attack my dog twice. Animal control will do nothing about this dog. They would not even come out yesterday when call. The dog bit my dog thru my fence and lasserated her neck. This is not rite. Now I have to fill a formal complaint to have the owners restrain their dog properly. It's been over 3 months and the man that is I'm charge of animal attacks had not came out. He told me he would be here in a day or two. Man his days or long or he isn't doing his job.

Thanks to someone (employer or volunteer) posting weekly the new arrivals I may have never have found my Roxy. She had been stolen back at Thanksgiving time. I watched so many face book groups that waiting hoping that she would be her hyper self and escape. I had almost given up on ever finding her and then there she was. A little rough around the edges and alot worn out from her adventures. And now safe a sound back home .as for who stole her and dumped her? Who knows but shame on you! What's meant to be will be. For us and you. Thank you and God bless to all who had a hand in her safe return from both me and Roxy! Wags, to Abilene Animal Shelter, THANK YOU THANK YOU SHE MEANS SO MUCH TO ME !

Found a wonderful 5 month old mixed breed pup. She has blossomed since we got her home. Staff so helpful, they so want each animal to find a good forever home.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

My daughter has a beautiful 2 year old spayed pyrenees collie mix she would love to be an only dog. She may have to take her to the shelter because she's leaving the state. The shelter is full so this would be a great rescue 💞🐾

I'm not sure. Maybe give them a call 🤔 sorry I couldn't help have a good day

Does this shelter hold cats and if so, how much do they cost to adopt?

QTPie | Dec 2, 2021
Phyllis Parks | Dec 3, 2021

Sometimes they have cats. I'm thinking the shelter charges $40. But you can look at their website and find out the cost. This should include a voucher for spaying or neutering if it's not done by them. Call them, they can help you more.

Do they take in rats because I was looking to get some?

Shauni Chick | Oct 3, 2021
Karen Berry | Oct 4, 2021

Check with them because they have what people can no longer take care of or those confiscated after an arrest. You just never know.

D. Harris | Jun 30, 2021
Celtic Gale | Jul 1, 2021

Yes, the shelter accepts hamsters as well. Just make sure you bring in everything the hamster would need as the shelter doesn’t often carry hamster food as they don’t receive them often.

Yes they can or if someone picks them up they may drop them at the shelter. It's always best to go by and see as the website isnt always up to date or not all dogs are added.

The tuna idea is probably the safest for the cat, next would be an auto repair shop but that is terribly dangerous.

Judi Campbell | Jul 1, 2019
SUSAN mccutchen | Jul 2, 2019

Sometimes they have a lot of puppies. We got a Chihuahua but he was a couple of years older but that's what we wanted. He was already house trained and great with kids and other animals. We live on a farm and my Grandson just finished Radiation therapy for Brain Cancer and he took to my Grandson right away. We have other dogs and live stock and he is wonderful with them as well as everyone else.
