I have started coming here instead of the chain pet supply stores for a few reasons:…read more 1. Their staff is always super friendly and knowledgeable about all the products AND the fish/aquatic life they sell. This is important as many of the chain stores have little knowledge about the animals they sell and it results in the fish dying without proper care. 2. They have a great selection of high quality products for tanks, if you have questions about the products they can always answer them for you and figure out what would be best for your tank. 3. It is ALWAYS clean, the floors are clean, the tanks are clean, it smells like an aquatic store but it doesn't smell bad. This is important for the overall well being of the animals! I highly recommend coming here for your aquatic needs!

This store is such a wonderful addition to the Omaha area!! My boyfriend had mentioned he had seen…read morethis store one day and we hoped we could stop by soon. We had recently become betta fish parents and we want to learn how to be the best parents we can! Our Betta is about two months in at our home and we had started getting a real algae problem. Some of our plants started to get weird and junk so we pulled them out. We were geared up to get some new plants, a siphon tool to help us clean and change out the water, and of course learn more about how we can maintain a great aquarium for our fish. We happened to be off the same day so we made the trek over to Rivers and Reefs! Walking in was as if you were walking into the most intentional fish store I've experienced. The tanks were of differing sizes with various fish, plants, and decor inside the tank for the fish communities. There were salt water fish and fresh water fish. I loved seeing the crates beneath the aquariums with various rocks, driftwood, wood, and other aquarium decor we can purchase. Each crate was easily marked with the price per pound. I also loved that they had a few betta fish in large tanks with plants and other fish. The bettas looked happy and big!! It was such a nice thing to see after seeing so many bettas looking sad in those small cups at other pet stores. We were greeted by the employees there in a timely manner and one of them came over to help us as we decided what algae eater we should get and what plants would be good to add to our aquarium. The employee was incredibly friendly and helpful. She was patient with our questions and seemed very knowledgeable. We decided on a small clown pleco to add to our aquarium and a few plants that will hopefully take nicely and continue to grow. Once we got home we got to changing the water and getting it pretty clean. We got our pleco acclimated and now he's been cruising down below while Betta keeps enjoying his tank! We know we will definitely keep coming back to this store for all of our fish and aquarium needs. It felt less intimidating than other stores and the staff is incredibly helpful!

The odd shop was indeed odd. I have always enjoyed going to…read moreodd shops in every city I find myself in! They've always got such unique items! This odd shop is very large, it's situated in an old building on the corner of Martha St, not hard to find. The outside leaves much to be desired, the inside is intriguing though. It seems like a hoarders paradise for cool things. For the prices being asked, items should be displayed well, better curated, and should be in humidified, or dehumidified spaces... That portion of the visit left much to be desired. My friend, and I sadly left with nothing, although we found many things very interesting. A few things we found were outright grotesque though (one such item I still think about months later) and a few items that were embalmed were not maintained, the fluid was getting low, and items were starting to disintegrate in the fluid. The person who owns the items and property was incredibly knowledgeable, incredibly kind, very warm, and incredibly welcoming. I enjoyed coming to this oddity shop very much, and would have loved to purchase quite a few items from here given they were cared for a bit more, or their price were a little less. Regardless, I think it is always worth checking out if you are in town. The bone collection was impressive, and easily one of the largest I've seen (if you're a collector)

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.

We had ALL -- mothers and kittens -- spayed, neutered and given all shots plus vet care, which was a VERY substantial expense. I recently I appealed (three times) to HUA to help us find homes for four remaining cats, to save them from the coyotes that roam the neighborhood. I was told in NO uncertain terms that they would NOT accept cats. That, despite their website advertsing their cats for adoption, and their professed no-kill policy. I was trying to save these cats from death by coyote, but nothing I said, nor the years of donations, made any difference. I am more than angry. Ifeel used and betrayed. It's a shame that HUA's "humanity" apparently can be turned on and off like the hot water.

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

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!!
