VERY IMPORTANT update!…read more This shelter is now completely privatized and run by Collin County Humane Society. It is still no-kill! Much of the staff has changed. You are now greeted by a friendly animal loving face, unlike what the previous reviews say. Don't be afraid to come in and check them out. They are bursting at the seams with dogs and cats that need homes.

These folks are severely underpaid because they apparently no more than your veterinarian and you…read moreas the owner. It was sadly a waste of time to try and adopt an animal from this adoption center. Having never met or examined your animal or seen their living conditions they are consumed with making judgment calls on how they think you treat your animals with a little information from your application and a phone call to your vet's office. Save yourself the grief and do not put down that you own any other animals. It's a demeaning experience that leaves you feeling like you're a terrible person. There are plenty of other shelters where there's not a bunch of Karen's trying to rule their fiefdom. You can tell because they argue with every person that adds a negative review.

I came here in September 2026 to look for a cat and was immediately impressed with the size and…read morecleanliness of their main building, as well as the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Everyone answered my questions as best they could, and the transparency they displayed was unique. If you have questions about a cat or dog, they will pull up all the information they have - good, bad, and ugly - to help inform your decision. One staff member shared that their better-behaved animals are the ones that are out in the public at places such as PetSmart and Pet Supplies Plus. That makes perfect sense, and the staff at those secondary places can give you even more information as to their behavior. This place is doing a tremendous service to the community, and I am proud to be a supporter of their efforts.

We recently adopted a kitten from this shelter and the adoption part of things went wonderful. We…read morehad friendly customer service and we're helped during the whole process. I have no complaints about this part of the experience. However, about 2 weeks after we adopted the kitten I started having swelling of my eyes and rashes on my skin. I saw my doctor and she narrowed it down to an allergy to the kitten. I stopped handling the kitten and my swelling would get better but every time I handled her the swelling would come back. I called the shelter for 4 days every morning and explained to them that I needed to bring the kitten back due to my allergic reaction and I was told they didn't have space. The 3rd day I was advised to call Greenville and Rockwall animal shelter only to find out from them that Rockwall is a city shelter, not a county one, and Greenville told me they only serviced Hunt county and that my home shelter needs to take the kitten back from me and it's a service to its citizens and they weren't providing that service to me as they should. I was frustrated at this point since they should've never advised me to contact these other shelters knowing they could not help. I felt like they were just trying to get me to keep the kitten. My husband finally called them on the 5th day and told them we were bringing the kitten back up to them that morning. He told them it wasn't fair to the kitten that she was caged in the front of our house to keep my reactions to a minimum. They had a whole different attitude at this point with both of us. When we arrived at the shelter the energy and attitudes were opposite of what we originally incurred during the adoption process. They acted like we had committed some crime needing to bring her back. I see now why they are full and can't find people to adopt. When you treat people with a shaming attitude for needing to return a pet I doubt that creates a safe positive interaction for the next time they might consider adopting. I do understand it may be frustrating on their end, but there is no reason to not have good customer service and create a positive interaction regardless of the reasons someone may need to return the pet to the shelter. I highly recommend the employees there remember that this is a business the city offers to its citizens. You get paid, the adoptions cost money, the surrender of an animal costs money and we the citizens pay for this service through our taxes, as such just like any other business, RETURNS are sometimes necessary.
