What a friendly, warm environment for all dogs and cats that are homeless. The new building is…read morecompletely staffed with loving volunteers who take good care of all of the future forever home pets. We have purchased all of our animals for that past 10+ years from Adopt-A-Pet. Our youngest daughter was a volunteer at the place when she was in high school and loved every minute of taking care of the dogs that she walked.

I adopted a dog from HUA and he was a wonderful. My son and many friends have also adopted from…read moreHUA with great success. They take wonderful care of the animals, feeding them well, getting vet care, giving them treats and toys, and treating each one with attention and love. They are careful with adoptions so that the pet goes to a good home. The animals may have been traumatized in their previous situation and rehabilitated at HUA so their new home needs to be a good fit. Another reviewer said the website might not be up to date as far as adoptions listed. The website relies on volunteers and they might be a little behind at times of lots of adoptions. The reviewer also complains about them "soliciting sponsorships". They are not aggressive about it but you can be a "buddy" to offer some support for a dog waiting to be adopted. They will let you know when the dog is adopted and you can switch to another "buddy" or end your support at any time. They are active in surrounding communities offering low cost neuter/spay and help to pet owners who run into serious problems supporting their pets. They recently started an outreach to give care to pets of homeless veterans in Victory Village apartments in Omaha working with a Girl Scout group and veterinarian Dr Jensen.

This is a wonderful place to adopt a cat. You can visit them and sit with them to get an idea of…read morewhich cat/kitten is right for you. I visited 3 times before choosing my cat. They have a thorough screening procedure for potential adopters, whichis good. The adoption center is clean and the cats all have plenty of space to sleep and play. I adopted my kitten (7 months old) from them. He came with all of his shots, neutered and they gave me a free bed, blanket, toys and even food to get him started. He had been thoroughly checked for any health issues. He was chipped and it was only a small fee to switch it to my name. I am a senior so the adoption fee was only $60. That's a great price when you consider all the shots and health check, let alone the freebies that came with him. I was extra lucky that he happened to have a fabulous cat tree that was his. They didn't realize it was part of his property until a day or so later and I would never have known but they made sure I got it. They called after about a week to make sure everything was going well. Just a great place and I also like that they are a no kill shelter. Only negative is that they have fairly limited open hours.

Wonderful host (I can't say enough, she's awesome), wonderful place. And goats!

Every animal I've adopted here (3 now) has either had wringworm, fleas, or both…read more I was charged with a $50 fee that is non refundable and now they're trying to offer me a $20 credit for an animal infested with fleas. Why on Earth would I want to adopt another animal from this facility given the gross negligence? What respectable animal shelter doesn't confirm/test for these kinds of issues prior to putting an animal up for adoption? I'd also like to add that the front desk staff (the welcome desk, not the folks in the back - they are very friendly) are incredibly rude. Consistently every time I've come in here, the social skills and public service has been horrific. I will no longer be adopting pets from this facility. They set the animals up for failure.

The NHS offers amazing training classes for all dogs at all levels. We are currently doing the…read moretraining for K9 good citizen certification, the class was a fair price and the teachers are amazing with the dogs, so knowledgeable and friendly! We also recently adopted a dog, the process was easy, the adoption counselors were easy to talk to and took the right steps for the introduction of our resident dogs and the new one. We received a collar and leash, food, all vet records, and information for any problems with behaviors or heath. I want to add that the shelter does a good job of providing enrichment and support for the animals. They make sure to have as many dogs and cats in the individual, quiet kennels as possible, which really helps them relax. The NHS is also a partner with Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, a sanctuary located in Kanab, UT and whose main goal is to help the USA become NO kill. This is HUGE for Omaha!!

I can only review for their boarding capabilities. This was my first time boarding out herd (3…read moredogs) and will admit I was quite nervous. From the beginning they responded to all of my questions very quickly. The facility was nice with clean beds, towels, bowls, and kennels. I opted to leave their food which they were ok with. They sent pictures daily and gave me updates daily (sometimes more when I asked questions). I thought their price was very reasonable for 3 dogs and was happy to see they offered a military discount. I will definitely recommend and use the facility for boarding again. I added photos of my pups to make you smile

This place is crooked as hell. My family and I went to pick up this dog named Diamond to adopt and…read morethey told us that she was on hold and would be off hold tomorrow. So my kids got all excited and couldn't even sleep they were so excited and we were there before open the next day. The doors open and they say, "sorry she is still on hold." What? We were the last ones out of the building last night. How can that be? "The manager/director has her on hold for friends. Um, okay? Isn't that ethically incorrect?! So we got our name down to get a call first if she became available after these people if it happens to not work out. So it doesn't work out with their family dog so we get a call. The call mind you, comes to me on a Wednesday at 11:10am. Of course any normal person would be at work. I answer and the lady says the dog is available and we wanted you to know. Ok, I'm at work until 4:30. She replies, "the dog is very high in demand with a lot of people interested in her. She is too popular to be put on hold." Um? What?! So I called back 1 hour later. They said "I''m sorry, she is more than likely going to a foster family right now. They're here to take her now." WTF?! F this place. They're corrupt. We tried an entire 4 days to get this dog and the place makes up rules as they go. Hope your animal friend isn't in high demand or you're screwed. Don't tell your family either, or they'll be broken hearted! Don't waste your time.

I was in the hospital for a week and my dog got out. When they told me to come collect her I told…read morethem my situation and that I had no one else to go get her. They brushed me off and said that because no one would collect her she would be put up for adoption and that they wouldn't give me any information from then on. I've spent the last 3 months trying to find my dog but they won't even give the new owners my information. All they said is that IF she comes back in I'll be their SECOND call. They showed no sympathy for me or my situation and didn't even give me a chance to get her. I didn't even get to say goodbye. Heartless people.
