This is the saddest shelter ever, but it's where I got my little monster mutt (dachshund/min pin mix) who is awesome and where my boyfriend rescued his giant couch potato lab mix (aka sweetest dog ever who was bizarrely on the kill list). The front office people were really, really nice when I picked out my little guy and I had a great volunteer walk me through the whole adoption process as well as grab an extra leash so I could take him home right away. They made sure I had lists of resources for vets, clinics, and more before I left...which was useful as said little mutt had kennel cough REALLY badly even after only being in the place for a few days (queue weeks of him hacking and coughing up stuff). Boyfriend's black lab came out covered in ticks and with really bad kennel cough as well. Also, turns out my "2 year old chihuahua mix" was really a 4 month only dachshund/min pin mix as he has gotten WAY bigger since bringing him home.
I also witnessed possibly the scariest dog in the world being surrendered due to multiple bite incidents while processing the adoption. The staff handled him like a pro and were understanding in a really unpleasant situation.
So, in summary, rescue a dog here as dogs are awesome. Be prepared to be sad when you realize the majority of pit bull and chihuahua mixes are not going to make another stop. Be nice to the staff as they have a rough job and deal will a lot of jerks. Donate some kibble or toys to spread the dog love.
