The service here is awful. Someone had found a dog at a camp site and no animal control would come get it and she couldn’t hold the dog over night so I offered. We had already tried the number on the collar and tried to reach out on Facebook. I contacted the shelter and animal control the next morning and was in contact with an officer. The shelter was closed and I was told to call the officer she said to call when I could could bring him in. So I did she didn’t answer and I left a message and never herd back. So today since they were open I went first thing. As I walk In The lady behind the desk is talking about “Maurice “ so I said Oh you found Maurice!(the mans name on the collar) And the lady behind the desk was just plain rude and was clearly annoyed I had this dog. They’ve known I’ve had this dog and knew I was bringing it. So I’m curious why the owner wasn’t called. But any way then she asked where the dog was found and I said a camp ground. So she literally yells at me and says she needs a address so I yell back I don’t know! She huffs and rolls her eyes at me. Then after taking my information says “we’re done” I’ve never been treated so badly yet alone yelled at 2x for bringing in a dog. The dog was also skin and bones, I had removed at LEASt 20 ticks from the dog and it was covered in scratches and scabs. No concern about that though!

The staff are always helpful there. We've adopted 2 of our dogs from them. Extremely clean and always have alot of toys for the animals. They really put the animal first.
