I love this place because it makes me feel good when I am around the cats,,, I love taking pictures of the cats too... I love this lady named Sharon and I have learned so much from her.... She makes my day every time I go there...

I volunteered to become a foster parent. I fostered 3…read morekittens that were orphans. Sharon the owner/the woman who runs this shelter told me that the "family" that dropped them off were completely unreachable. So she asked me to foster them. The day I picked them up I expressed openly that I would want to adopt them (being as they were orphans). One employee and the previous foster mom who passed them to me told me that was possible. Over 3 weeks later we received a phone call from Sharon saying that she had made a mistake and that the family wanted them all back. After the fact that several foster homes raised them during the difficult stages. Of course this was very upsetting and heartbreaking to me and my family. Come to find out she wasn't being truthful about the situation. We were told that it was 1 family that was out of town on a vacation to Europe. But the truth came forth that it wasn't 1 family but yet 3 different people. We have no idea what was in it for her financially but this seemed wrong. I received thereafter a phone call from the police dept. telling me that she was stating that me and my family had stolen these kittens. Demanding their return. This came as an incredible shock to us and our children. Who has done nothing but love, and care for these babies for weeks! My children are devastated to have to have said goodbye to 3 sweet souls that they grew to love. With reluctance we arranged a time and day to return them to her care, to avoid any legal issues. She then proceeded to accuse us of not returning the correct kittens. Again I received another call from the police dept. I just want anyone and everyone to be VERY aware of this shelter and this woman before considering adopting from them. My understanding of a shelter is to give animals a loving home and keep them off the streets. Obviously this is not her/their intent. My want to help and foster has been completely tarnished and I am now scared to ever try and help again. We hope that every animal in need finds a loving home and we would hope that this entire staff of people will find their way back to the intent of this business.....

I recently adopted a dog from SafeHaven after buying a house a few months ago. I had been looking…read morefor a while and finally found the perfect match on their site. I found him the same day he got to the shelter and convinced my partner to go meet him with me. We got there about half an hour before they closed on a Sunday and they let us stay with him in a room until half an hour after closing. We spent time with him in the yard even though it was raining, and when he was apprehensive we went inside and he came right to me. The person who was working with us offered some treats for us to give him and checked in on us every once in a while, giving us privacy to just be with him and talk together. When we left I knew he was the dog for us. I talked to my partner and convinced him, and the next day we called and placed a hold on the boy we had visited with. We showed up about an hour later and went through the adoption process. It took about half an hour and included a detailed explanation of his file, his medical records, and what the knew about him. We filled out the adoption application, they entered the information, then took my payment. Once we paid, they brought our new family member out to us. I put the collar and leash I had for him on and we took a picture together. The staff walked him out to our car and he jumped right in. I got in with him and he put his head in my lap. He's been my shadow ever since! He's gotten more comfortable in our home every day and there have been no nasty surprises yet. The facility is super nice and looks newer. There are hoses hooked up to the walls and ceiling for easy cleaning. The dog room and hallway before it do stink of dog pee, but there's nothing you can do about that when you run an indoor shelter. There's a ton of yard space and a walking track. There's a separate room that looked like a quarantine for new arrivals (or possibly small dogs, but it looked pretty empty so my guess is quarantine) and a whole other area for cats so they don't have the stress of dog noise right next to them. There's a small room in the lobby where you can meet dogs. They have a shop you can get supplies at if you are needing stuff for your first night together. The staff are all incredibly friendly and helpful. Everyone knows the dogs and their stories and status, even the front desk folks. They clearly care about the animals that they are responsible for. The dogs seemed to be well cared-for and happy. The cat room also looked cozy, but we didn't go in so I don't know much about it. There is plenty of parking. We missed the turn the first time because our GPS told us to turn later, but looking back it should have been obvious because they had street signs pointing to the humane society. Just something to keep in mind if you go. If you're on the fence about going here to find your next family member, do it! These people are amazing and the animals are cared for and loved. Our experience was nothing short of wonderful.

Love the new place! But, the way they have treated some of their employees/volunteers through the…read moreyears is awful. There was a gal that worked there YEARS ago that loved her job. Worked hard too! Absolutely loved the animals. But, unfortunately, she had to have a serious operation done. The way they treated her after she got back was ridiculous. So, folks that know her always remember that when going in to see the animals. The animals remember people and when someone is gone that they got close to makes it hard for them too. Treat all well! Blessings!

Me and my roommate came to one of their adoption events and we were trying to find someone to speak to. After about ten minutes of waiting i finally went up to someone and she introduced me to some other lady that worked there, I couldnt recall names, but when we mentioned that we were wanting to adopt two of their dogs the lady speaking to us didnt even greet us, continuously cut us off and basically told us that we were not good fits to adopt those dogs. They don't tell you everything about their dogs online, the dogs we wanted were labeled as sweet, cuddly, and timid, but this lady explained these dogs to be crazy and escaping all the time, busting out of ANY medal crate, and running their head into the glass door until they are let out. It would've been nice to know these things before applying for them. Then some other lady decides to cut in and be very disrespectful towards my roommate, here is basically what was said: My roomate: "Oh i was getting Gomez" Wiggly tails employee: "Oh your GETTING gomez, have you spoke to nicole yet" but in a very mocking tone, while this employee is talking to my roomate she has her hands in the front of her pants and her shirt up so that her entire stomach was out which I thought was complete inappropiate to do while speaking to someone else. As me and my roommate were trying not to actually cry because this lady was rude to us, she kept giving us deep breathes and rolling her eyes. I had sent in an application for one of their dogs and I brought it up to the lady we were speaking to, and she let me know that they no one even saw my application which was not fun to hear, I was let down heavily by this establishment especially because one of my closest friends highly recommended them to me for a first time pup. I work with patients all day and I ran into this lady and her niece had the same experience I did where they basically just turned her away. I'm never the type of person to write reviews but I was very hurt with the way they were speaking to us and the lack of professionalism that we witnessed. If your thinking of adopting from Wiggly Tails. I would highly recommend doing your research first. Wiggly Tails I had so much hope, but you guys were very rude and let me down.
