Reviews
"Had a great experience visiting FDHS for a meet and greet with a kitten. Kendra, the office manager, was very friendly and helpful. She even brought us some tissues for our happy tears! The whole process of communication via email and phone calls was also very seamless. Very happy with the adoption experience and looking forward to coming back to pick up our kitten!"
"They blocked me on Facebook because they don’t want me to see they’re trying to sell dogs they don’t legally have custody of. I did call the shelter multiple times before they had been there for 5 days so that’s not true, I was told I had to wait to talk to a humane agent after I finally got into contact with someone. The dogs are also considered evidence in an ongoing legal case and there has been a motion filed to preserve the evidence so again you’re wrong. Also edit to add that you can respond to my negative online review and block me on Facebook but when I call and try to talk to someone on the phone no one is available or ever calls me back. Another edit to add, I spoke with the shelter on day 4 of them being there and was told I had to talk to the humane agent who was out of the office still for the holiday weekend (Memorial Day) and I did speak with the humane agent on the next day and then even following that was asked if I wanted to surrender the dogs, I declined. I asked about a week later to visit them and was told they were considered evidence so I was unable to do so. I have phone records to reflect what I am saying."
"My dog had gotten loose from my daughter's and I was panicked about how he was being treated. He's a big guy but doesn't know a stranger and is extremely non aggressive. When I got there, he was happy to see me, but I could tell he was treated just fine. They told me he was talkative the whole time and had gotten all the other guests involved with his talking and singing. I love this dog more than anything and would be more than lost without him. Thank you, Defiance Humane Society"
"Stole my Cat, by using hidden fees. My cat just turned one btw, was about to have him get shots and neutered....been trying since september even.... Emotional support animal. They didn't tell me the process when I called because the lady didn't even know and then had the supervisor rob my family of its member. The first day she said bring in 60. 60 became 150 over night? Simply because I'm disabled and didn't have access to drive up there before they closed at 5???? Rude. Everyone says this was morally wrong. Civilly speaking. I never stand up for myself....good job. You pushed me over. "They have the cops pick up strays? To make them money...yall r horrible folks.""Scam artists. " Quotes from others mouths even? IM THE LAST TO KNOW, folks should be aware of a process (even tho u say there's no process for cats) when u took him, gave him shots when I know he was due.... I'm sorry I have to tell my son. We love Macaroni. So u don't see that animals are loved by the poor? What's the excuse? I'm multiracial and poor? You take a cat make processes for it or turn down taking the cat in. It's not ur court order job to do these thing pass the cat to the feline center where we can obtain our fur babies back. Ma'am."
"Not sure how to tate them. I dropped my baby off for surgery and she didn't make it. She was cleared for the surgery after getting a $3500 heart repair. I realize it wasn't their fault but I still miss my baby and am in shock. Their doctor and mine have come to agree it was the after meds and not her heart."
