Jenn has been wonderful to work with during our dog adoption process. Her professionalism and dedication to her work helped us feel confident that we were adopting the right dogs for us. While visiting her home, we were struck by how happy all of the dogs were, and healthy too. We would recommend HPHS to anyone seriously looking for their perfect pet!

The people who run High Plateau Humane Society are professional and caring. They have done extensive work on the facility, improved the cat enclosure, and do their best to find homes for dogs and cats. I greatly appreciate their presence and their contributions to the animal world and to our tiny community. We are fortunate to have such an active humane society in our isolated area.

Very helpful and responsive. I was just passing through town and reported a stray cat hanging around my hotel. A volunteer responded to my message right away, and the cat was in their care a day later. A happy ending for the sweet cat, and one less breeding male roaming and mating! Great rescue, much appreciated.

Please look for another adoption agency if you are looking for dogs. I believe that the woman that runs the dog adoptions is fraudulently taking money from people. Her name is Jennifer Anderson. Everything that she told us was incorrect. The adoption fee of $350 included the chip (that she gave to us in a baggy), first puppy shots and $100 to be refunded when we showed proof of neuter. She spoke at length about how important it was to neuter at roughly 6 months, because of hormones and growth. Also, Ms. Anderson was very aggressive in her request that we make out own dog food. To the point that I thought she wouldnt let us adopt if we didnt agree with the request. When we took our new puppy to our vet, we found out that he already had a chip, and they strongly requested that we NOT make our own food unless we're consulting with a dog nutritionist. 6 months go by and we're patiently waiting for our puppy's balls to drop and surprisingly they never did. After contact with Ms. Anderson 7 months later, she said that she had forgotten and our puppy had already been neutered. That's kind of a big forget. She also told me not to listen to my vet about dog nutrition. She had done the "research" and she knew better. It should be noted that Ms. Anderson is not a veterinarian, but she is a moron. I encourage Alturas to find another person to run their dog adoptions.

dont ask them to take your dogs, they wont give them back, first they offer to reimburse me for my cost of vaccination and spayig, then only give me %50 of my reimbursement. then i ask them if i could have my dogs back they said no. even though i have a fenced in yard. i even offered them 900.00 to get my dogs back. but they are more into saling them then letting me get my dogs back. its all about business and profit and they took advantage me. i want my dogs back why there still in the pet coordinators yard. how do i file a legit complaint against them?

This place took and adopted my dog within 9 days of being there told me I had 19 and that they saved her from being put down but modoc county doesn't put down dogs. They are thieves and liars.
