I'm not sure who is luckier, the dogs (or cats they help) or the people who now have them as companions! Please see their website for more info. They have different phone numbers and email contacts for dogs, cats, and website questions. Keep up the great work. And, to be a member, it's only $10/year or $15/year for a family, and the cash all goes to helping the animals.

I hate what this place has become. The director, Jill Hornady, has no place on a board for an…read moreanimal shelter. She does not care about the animals and employees have been fired for speaking out against what is going on. They have been euthanizing animals for the sake of convenience and have been very secretive about doing so. I know they separated a pair of dogs who were companions, and were only supposed to be adopted together, as they had been together their whole lives. One of the dogs was adopted, and the other one was put down. Disgusting. This used to be a no kill shelter and a place I frequented when I wanted to visit some animals. But now you're not even allowed to go back and see the dogs.

I had went in to look at the dogs and had called prior to leaving to ask if the dog was available…read morefor pick up the next day, she had said he was and so we drove an hour out of our way ( we have other humane societies in our own town) to get this dog. I had moved out right after I graduated and my mom was going to sign off for a god. When we arrived we were told we had to play with the dog for 30 mins, after the 30 mins was up we were told we couldn't have the dog. After. We let the dogs hope down and we wonder why dogs aren't adopted. The blonde skinny lady at the front desk should lose the attitude.

We got both of our cats from BHS (a year apart) and can't recommend them enough. They make sure…read morethat all their animals find great homes and save some of them from terrible situations into much better ones with loving families. My friend actually does fostering for them and has done a few litters of kittens and puppies, so she is the one who introduced us to BHS, and we're so glad she did! Conan was my first cat (first of the two, and first ever) and we got him from BHS. He was a kitten that was part of a new litter with a young mother. They were at an overrun "kill" shelter in Arkansas, and when a rescue heard about this situation, they connected with BHS - who sprung to action. They had someone drive roundtrip from Nebraska to Arkansas to save these babies! And I can't thank them enough because one of them was my little orange man who I can't imagine not being mine. They did their due diligence with us too, to make sure we were a good fit for adopting one of their animals. We had to sign an adoption contract that included things like providing healthy food and the best care, and agreeing that we would never give him up because we were moving, and that if we WERE going to do that (never!) that we'd call them before we did anything like that and return him to BHS to find a better home for him. They also called before approving us to chat about those topics too and just make sure we were serious about adoption. Once that was all good, Conan was ours! And we heard a little while later that all five other kittens and the mother were also adopted - that's SEVEN kitties saved by BHS! Once we had Conan for a little over a year, I saw that my friend had another litter she was fostering from BHS. We decided it was time to add another kitten to the house, as we read that they can be happier in pairs. So we did another adoption with BHS that was just as smooth! We added Remy to the family and he and Conan are the best "brothers" (connected by BHS!) and friends Thank you BHS!!

There are many people who are still buying puppies or pure bred dogs instead of relying on these non profit organizations. There are great dogs who need a loving home that will provide safety and comfort. Take a look at this organization. They are very thorough and efficient with the application process. Thank you for finding our new family member.

This option seemed like a dream at first. Until the guy who "runs" the place ( I'll leave unnamed)…read moreis so kind and sweet at first. Watch out though! If his day is off just a little he will be rude and inconsiderate. Worst of all, if you have to return a dog because it is a threat to your original animal...he will make you feel like the biggest compost pile emaginable. When infact, all parties knew there was a small chance this herding dog wouldn't do well with a cat. If you can in fact handle an egotistical judgmental mouthy rude old man, this is the place for you.

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.

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.
