I have been volunteering at this shelter for over two years and I am so humble by all the staff that give their all everyday with so much love and compassion. They see a lot everyday that is emotionally, physically draining. The volunteers go to show all the animals they matter and help the staff get the dogs out for walks/playtime. It’s a small shelter with a lot of love and heart. ❤️ come volunteer

Well... what can I say...It is what it is... A Homeless Shelter for our FurBaby's ... But I must give credit where it is due... So with that said... I would like to Thank Mike... Rachel..Ellen and the entire staff for their hard work and dedication to ensuring that my little Roxy Bear 🐻 is being well taken care of and will hopefully be adopted by a nice caring family soon

My dog escaped from my underground fence and was detained and delivered to the Human Facility in Newport. I was able to contact the facility and verify my dog. All that was required to release my dog was medical records (rabies verification) and a $20.00 "bail". He was well taken care of, and the people were kind and helpful.

It’s honestly really sad how selective these people are. They are a kill shelter but will turn away someone because they don’t think they’re young enough for the dog. They say they don’t hold dogs but will tell someone they have many applicants and they have to wait until everyone does a meet and greet. Just because they don’t want to adopt that dog to a specific person. For being a kill shelter they make people jump through hoops on fire to be able to adopt

I adopted a puppy from here last week. They are very helpful there and you can tell they all genuinely care about these animals. If you are looking for a pet, please look here first. So many sweet and beautiful dogs and cats looking for a loving home.

Very easy to talk to and deal with. As it being a very very very painful day for me, they did the best they could to ease my mind and stifle the pain. Nothing will ever take the pain of having to leave your best friends alone, but the staff tried.

Wonderful and sad, both at the same time. Every time I go down Hibbs Road and turn at the Humane Society sign, I think about how wonderful it is to have a safe haven for abandoned cats and dogs. Sad, because often when I am donating dog biscuits or food, as I return to my car, I'll see a dog in a cage outside staring at me. As if to say, "Please take me home with you. This place is OK, but I want a forever home." And I can't do that. We already have our own rescue dog, and Lucky is a loving handful. But maybe you can. Spread the love 💕!

7 years ago I adopted my fur baby Charlie from CCHS. He has been an absolute JOY to have in our lives! I have three special needs children, and Charlie is their support. He is my eyes and ears when something is wrong. He is their calming …

The people that work and volunteer here are all great and do a great job with the animals. Hoping I will have a dog from here this week once the wait lifts. Keep up the great work!

My husband and I adopted two sister kittens last week and they are such precious love bugs! I am so happy we adopted them together. The shelter seemed understaffed and maybe overwhelmed so if you go just have some patience with them, lots of animals to take care of!
