I have been volunteering there for over 3 years. It always amazes me how caring everyone is regarding each and every animal. It's not just a job to the workers- they truly want to help animals as much as possible.

I went to this shelter looking to adopt a cat. The staff spent a lot of time with me helping me decide what was the right cat for me and were able to tell me so much about many of the cats at the shelter. They were very knowledgeable and would recommend them to anyone.

Our shelter does an exceptional job of taking care of the animals and finding them loving forever homes. I hope that your company will indeed give the shelter it needs. We are a small facility but we haven't been able to achieve any funds from a national company. Please help!

We adopted a dog from the washington shelter about 3 years ago and it was the best thing we ever did. He is the best dog and they were very helpful. We tried to adopt a mate for him the following year but were unable to find another dog there that he "clicked" with and ended up adopting from another shelter. That experience was not as pleasant. We ended up with another wonderful dog but that facility did not seem to care as much about their animals as the washington shelter does. Every time we have been to the washington shelter their dogs are well taken care of and the facility is clean.

We found our beautiful Dixie Doodles at this shelter. It took some time for the staff to find a dog that would get along with the two I already had. But the person assisting us worked tirelessly to find us the right match. And the rest has been history. Dixie thinks she rules the house, but my male dog knows better! She has been very loving and just a joy to have with us in our pack!

If it wasn't for a volunteer who had a female pitt mix who didn't like other dogs out for a run, we wouldn't have our little Paisley. She just reminded us of the rottie mix we had to put down the day after Thanksgiving. The shelter staff allowed us to bring Monty to meet her. She was needed as a companion for him. They get along like any siblings. Never thought that we would adopt a female, dog hating dog! LOL

the shelter and it's workers are some of the most dedicated I've seen. I, personally have adopted two dogs from the shelter and the staff have been very helpful and knowledgable about the animals. The shelter could really use a facelift, though. They do the best they can with what they have, but a remodeled shelter would help them do their work better.

What the volunteers do here is fantastic. With this being a no kill facility I know it makes their jobs much more difficult. They are very passionate and caring. If an animal has to be given up...hopefully they pass through here on their way to their new family. Many thanks for all your hard work!!!

Last year we lost both of our family pets. One day we stopped at the local Petco and WAHS was there with a wonderful dog named Bella. My son was in love with her and on the way home we stopped to see what other dogs they may have when Bella came back to the shelter and that day we ended up bringing her home with us. She has been a delight to us every since with her beatiful blue eyes. Thank you WAHS for taking care of all the animals looking for a forever home and thank you for Bella.
