We have adopted all 3 of our fur angels from Little Shelter Animal Rescue and couldn’t feel more blessed to have found them. We knew that from the moment we went there and saw what they do for their animals, we would never go anywhere else. They have a thorough adoption process which I appreciated so much because as an animal lover, Im unfortunately too aware of how many people think they want dogs and end up leaving them homeless again. Our pups all met each other before adopting with the help of one of the caretakers Mike, to make sure it was a good fit. They helped us handle their neutering at the shelter and made sure they were all up to date with their shots before becoming our responsibility. Whenever I had a question in the beginning they were always there for us, AND when one of our dogs got out one day, and I was freaking out, Little Shelter actually sent a team to help me get him back. I know they have also done that for others which says a lot to me. They care so much about every single dog and cat and making sure they find themselves into the best families. David and Tito have become like family to us, and we do what we can to donate supplies or help out when we can. They are a no kill shelter who has helped so many animals find amazing forever homes over the years and at the end of the day, if an animal ends up at little shelter- you know they have the best chance at having a 2nd chance at the life they deserve. We will always support little shelter and look forward to getting another addition to our family one day!

For anyone out there that ever thought of adopting an older pet, don’t hesitate one more minute. We are the happy family of 4 wonderful dogs. Our first experience with Little Shelter was in June of 2020 when we adopted our little Morty, a 15 year-old teacup poodle who was blind and had no teeth. He was a little guy with a BIG heart and a BIG personality! Morty came everywhere with us, traveling in style in his little pink stroller, with a bowl full of baby Goldfish as a snack! The day we adopted Morty we brought our 3 other pups to meet him at Little Shelter, and he fit right into our little pack. From that day forward, Morty became the most wonderful addition to our family of humans and puppies! Unfortunately our little Morty passed away in April of 2021. We felt some things we had acquired for Morty could be helpful to Little Shelter and the puppies there waiting for a home. We decided to bring some donations to Little Shelter, but prior to going that day, we had come across the picture of another little guy looking for a home on the Little Shelter website. When dropping off our donations, we inquired about this little guy, who went by Oscar at Little Shelter. In the blink of an eye, Oscar became a member of our family, and now goes by Charlie! Little Shelter had told us that Oscar was being passed over again and again for a home, and that he was blind and hard of hearing. Upon bringing him home, we discovered he also had no teeth! A sign from our Little Morty that Oscar was meant to be ours. Both Morty and Charlie have brought so much happiness and love to our family of 6 humans and 4 dogs. Going forward, our family will return to Little Shelter to bring home other furry senior citizens. They are the most wonderful addition to a family, with so much love to give, and in need of so much love and kindness themselves. What’s better than bringing a senior pet into your home and making him/her feel comfortable, happy and loved for the rest of his/her life? For our family, we feel there is nothing better. For anyone out there thinking about adopting a pet, please don’t overlook senior pets, and please don’t be scared off by their age. They are all young at heart and need a family to love and care for them.

We decided to adopt a dog rather than buy one at a pet store when we heard how full all the local shelters were with abandoned and abused dogs. We adopted “Teddy” with the help of the good people of Little Shelter. They clearly love animals and take great strides to make sure they are placed in the right homes. They walked us through the process. They were kind and professional. They made sure we were informed and that the match was right. They called our references and did a thorough check to insure the fit was right. Teddy was well cared for. He was medically supervised and the run down on his temperament was spot on. I will be donating to support their mission and looking to them in the future.

We were lucky enough to come across our crazy Luna at an adoption event and since then she has brought so much love into our home. It was so comforting to see how dedicated and passionate the staff were about their rescues and finding them the right home. They kept great communication and helped us every step of the way with all our questions and concerns. Thank you Little Shelter ❤️

This is Lenny, a sweet, loveable boy with a tough background. He’s two years old and grew up in a hoarding situation so that means minimal human contact and no time outside resulting in an anxious dog who needs patience and continued training. This is what Little Shelter does, they rescue dogs which may come with a lot of baggage and train them for weeks or months and then help train their humans too! Little Shelter and their staff put the dogs first and want to make sure the dog is a good fit for you and more importantly, that you are a good fit for the dog. Our adoption process took some time but I’m so glad it did. We were able to work with numerous employees who gave us tips and tricks and trained us to properly train our dog! We received nothing but support, encouragement and guidance from the staff and couldn’t be happier with this addition to our family!

I adopted my dog from Little shelter, they walked me through the process, were very helpful, giving me as much background information that I needed to understand what my dog had been through prior to coming to Little Shelter. It helped me to understand some of the behaviors he was demonstrating. I am very grateful to Little Shelter and all the volunteers that make it possible to help all the animals that they rescue, and find good homes for them. Thank you Little Shelter for my Buddy, (aka Brooklyn). He is my heart.

Autism discrimination anyone? My family, which consists of twin 9 year old boys who are non-verbal autistic went to pick out a dog. We’ve always been a dog family and our oldest just passed a little over a month ago.

It’s very very hard to adopt a dog from this shelter. Especially from this one lady, she has blonde hair and I believe she is the manager. I love the shelter it self. Very clean and maintained but the staff really needs to work on their ways of speaking to people. I had an extremely hard time adopting my dog from there. It even got to the point of this particular lady calling me and basically asking personal questions. I get that it’s their job to make sure it’s the right fit but to get to that point it’s ridiculous. Of course I’m extremely grateful that I have my dream dog but I had to fight hard for her. I had every qualification to show and prove to them I was the right fit and still gave me the absolute hardest time as well as being extremely rude to me. Which btw they said at the time the dog I was trying to adopt said that she’s a monster and extremely violent as well as bites everyone and other dogs but then she was supposed to go on TV for the news the next day. They were trying so hard to make sure I don’t adopt her. The day I finally was able to take her home one staff member took her by the harness and just plopped her on my car seat. The dog hasn’t bitten one person or any other dog or cat. Just go into this shelter with not much expectations of walking away with a dog or cat. They denied my sister for absolutely not reason of adopting a dog. I truly recommend rehiring new staff for this small lovely shelter. It would be such a better experience for people looking for a new best friend.

This was my first time adopting from a shelter, so when I was informed that they had gotten a litter of puppies that I was interested in adopting, I called and made an appt to see puppy. And although it was along process and steps that was taken to get adoption finalized, it was worth it. I adopted my self a beautiful puppy that was spayed, microchipped, dewormed, and almost fully vaccinated. The staff was great, the animals are cared for and loved. At the end of it all I was very happy with the process and care that staff go through to ensure all these animals get a good home. Thank you Little Shelter you have a client for life.

We had gotten ace at 10 weeks old and he couldn’t have been a better fit for our family, the people that helped us figure out who would fit us best did a great job, we had been shown a couple of dogs out of what we picked and all were very sweet and lovable but something about this little lab mix Ace just had me and my father so attracted from the moment they picked him up over the counter in the office! Thank you guys so much for giving us the missing part in our family!
