They're not only have human food but they also have pet food programs sometimes diapers wipes. If you are in need to reach out to them if they can't help you they'll find someone. If you're looking for somewhere to volunteer they take people pretty much of any ages smaller kids need to be with their parents there's so many opportunities to volunteer it's physical labor so I considered a work out for the day.

They showed up at the Fall Fest and their chili was a bit bland, not even salt in there.

They have almost nothing for selections and the staff is cold. I miss the days when the food fairies ran this place. There was a lot of love and they always went the extra mile.

As much as the cause is great, I have observed on a regular basis team members being short and harsh with my kid if god forbids he drops a grain of rice. But not only that.

Pretty shameful for one review to complain that his teenage son had to pay $20.00 to volunteer. The money is used to pay for the food and transporation around the world. Would have been more appropriate to pay for his son to reinforce what a good deed it is. Cudos to the teenager who wanted to help in anyway.

We've been up there for trainings for our Dog. My wife and I live in the East Bay but we've been…read morewilling to travel up to Sonoma for trainings because we've really enjoyed the different service dog trainings, especially the ones offered by Brian Gallindo. We've done two different classes and our dog has enjoyed them. The place is a very nice, new and well-done facility in Healdsburg. It's easy to find via Google Maps and there's a plenty of space to walk and train dogs. We've never tried their pet adoption operations but when we're there it seems to be a pretty good environment.

I am a veterinary professional and this shelter is hands down, the best and most caring facility…read morethat I've ever been to. We adopted our dog there and Gabe is one of the most caring, knowledgeable and kind professionals that I've met. His first priority is the wellbeing of the animals in their charge. He is worth his weight in gold and a wonderful source of animal behavioral knowledge. Secondly, our cat disappeared in May of 2017 and after doing everything we could to find him, we feared the worst. Months went by and we relocated from Sonoma County to the Central Coast. We were shocked to receive a call from Gabe, letting us know that our cat was found, and he was able to locate us thanks to a microchip. FOLKS, MICROCHIPS WORK! But remember to always have your information current! Because we live much farther away, the staff, and especially Alison the AMAZING Shelter Director were all very accommodating and patient about us getting to Healdsburg to retrieve him, because it fell on a Holiday weekend. In the meantime they kept communication ongoing, and because our cat was underweight, they were especially concerned for his health and did everything they could to find something palatable to help him eat. Our kitty is now home and thriving again. Healdsburg is SO fortunate to have such a beautiful afacility and such a caring staff for the local animal population!
