    Do not trust Livingston County Animal Shelter with any animal's life. They killed a sweet,…read moreadoptable dog who was nothing but gentle and loving. I made the huge mistake of bringing a stray dog here. After not being claimed and he became adoptable, I fostered him and provided photos, notes, and a foster report card recommending the right kind of home for him. None of it was shared or considered in his adoption. His adopters returned him after a week with false claims of "aggression." I immediately tried to contact the shelter and offered to adopt him if his life was at risk. My calls and emails were ignored. Nearly a week later, they told me he was "safe with a rescue," which was a lie--they euthanized him three days after they claimed he was safe. Even the shelter admitted they never saw aggression. They chose to believe lies and killed an innocent dog simply because someone wanted their money back. On top of this, most of the staff are rude and unhelpful (with the exception of one woman), and despite always having multiple people behind the counter, they rarely answer the phone or respond to emails. This shelter does not act in the best interest of the animals. A dog's life was cut short because of their negligence, dishonesty, and misplaced priorities. I will never trust this shelter again, and I pray no other animal suffers the same fate.

    Do not trust this facility. I applied on April 15 for a cat that had been in the facility for a…read moremonth. I was working to obtain my current pet records and to bring a family member to interview per their rules. People work and getting to the facility during the time they say they are open weekdays from 11 am to 5 pm is an issue for the employed. They called late in the afternoon on Thursday 4/16 to ask their battery of questions to determine suitability. At that point I didn't know if I could get my family member there before near their closing time of 5 pm on Friday 4/17. They mentioned there was another interested party. I agreed that if someone came to take the cat before I could get there late Friday 4/17 they should process him. They said they couldn't hold the animal for me so I was trying to be cooperative. However, we were able to be there today April 17 before their posted opening time of 11 am only to discover they had already opened and processed the animal to someone else before the posted opening time. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. Then they implied that I had miscommunicated my interest. If they can do that, please, beware of what they post on animal profiles to lure you in. Don't trust it is accurate and the animal is truly what they describe. If there was miscommunication, it was on their side of this interaction.

    This shelter is terrible. They adopted out a pair of kittens to my mother and Stepfather about 4…read moreyears ago. Both of them were in their seventies, my stepfather was on oxygen and my mother a cancer survivor with severe heart disease. I was emphatic with my mother to not get these cats because the day would come soon that they would not be able to take care of them, this shelter should have NEVER allowed my parents to adopt because of their age and their health but Grosse Pointe Animal Adoption thought it was a good idea. The cats have suffered neglect under my mother's care for at least a year as my mother's health was failing and now 4 years later my stepfather is dead and my mother is not able to take care of herself anymore let alone two cats and Grosse Pointe Anima Adoption refuses to take them back saying they are full, and they are saying they might have room in 2 months. I CAN'T KEEP THESE CATS but they don't care, it's not their problem anymore. They don't really give a damn at all about getting these cats good home all they care is getting these animals out of their care and then they will wash their hands of it. AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL

I've spent the past two days looking to relinquish them to a no kill shelter in hope that they'd find a good & loving home. I contacted several local shelters, humane society and animal control centers only to get no help. No suggestions and passed off. Grosse Pointe shelter was the only facility that actually offered suggestions/ideas to help these animals. Well done! Heads above all the rest who are just lip service. Thank you for your help!
