A very clean and well maintained facility. The staff is extremely helpful and cheerful. The whole process of finding, meeting, and adopting my new fur baby was easy and seamless thanks to the staff. I will forever adopt from here. Such a wholesome experience.

The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. They got back to me right away after I submitted my application as well as when I had questions or concerns. This is the second dog we have gotten at this shelter and we are extremely happy.

Report
All the adult cats have to share one room that doesn't guarantee access to the patio at all times. That cramped room in the back bottlenecks cats walking paths which is where I've seen fights break out between cats. As many as 15 adult cats I've seen stuffed in that backroom at once. Each dog gets their own room to defacate in all over the floor even when pairing would best suit the requirements of certain dogs.
I know this is done to easily clean accidents but it does enable a negative behaviour counter productive to the adoption process. Regardless of this, I continue to see a stark contrast between dog favoritism over cat welfare at pet network year after year. I don't go often, just a few days out of the year. That strong chemical smell would have been understanable had I not entered harsh sneezing fits only ten minutes of being in the place ( I don't have allergies and grew up with more than ten cats ect. ) I can tell the friendly staff from unmotivated staff too easily. I feel like it's because I'm not actively shopping.
