We are seniors in age went to Campbell County shelter looking for an older dog to adopt. We were told , "no you can't see them " ,we will sit down and interview YOU to decide which dogs to bring out. We don't want to excite the dogs. Sadly , we left because they wouldn't give the dogs a chance of a good home and future to share with..

Horrible!! We had to cancel 2 surrender appointments because we thought we found forever homes for our kittens(we got stood up both times). On our third attempt to make an appointment the lady ( who can learn some manners) told me this would be the last time they take cats from us because we made too many appointments. Um what??? Sorry we tried to find good homes for them before we took them to a sad shelter. They acted as if we gave up cats all three appointments! The day we did surrender them was horrible the staff didn't even seem like they wanted to be there and before we left, literally walking towards the door she tells us again that we can never drop off a cat again. Just because I made three appointments?! Crazy.

My son adopted a dog they had for two weeks that turned out to have such severe abandonment issues that she would become destructive and psychotic if left for more than 20 minutes. We tried everything trying to settle this dog but the nicer we were, the worse she got. In the end she managed to chew through wire cages and damage an entire room with her head stuck out of the cage (not caught in it, but bit through the metal).We were told that we didn’t do enough and recommended therapy and a “stronger cage” after she literally ate 1/3 of a 9x13 rug. We asked to return it but we’re told we had to wait two weeks to schedule it and criticized for not calling them about the problem (like they would have had a solution) and then hung up on after she accused me of trying to “dump” the dog.Finally I was able to reach the director and they moved it up but I still had a psychotic animal in my home for 72 more hours so they had room for more possible strays. Makes zero sense.Just avoid this place. They chip the dog to you so you’re responsible for it until they take it back, if ever.

This agency is ridiculous. They care too much about their policies and not helping out animals. They'd rather let animals rot in a house were abandoned than go rescue them. Let's follow a 7 day policy and let these cats starve to death and die of heat stroke.... thanks for doing nothing. You guys should reevaluate your job choices into something that requires no empathy.

I do volunteer service on Saturdays and every staff member there is so helpful! They are willing to answer every question I have with out judging. Teach me about animal safety and how to read animals emotions/pain & how to treat their health. They treat all the animals with respect, just like they are their own an spoil them. Also take extra time to work on training with them getting adopted out. They always keep the shelter clean and sanitized! I've really enjoyed my time there!

We tried to take our cats here because our county's shelter has a rough reputation. They denied us because we weren't from Campbell County, which is fine. But lady at front desk was incredibly rude. There is absolutely no need to be that impertinent.

I’ve been volunteering for a little over a month and super impressed with the staff, the cleanliness, and how well the dogs are taken care of. I look forward to spending time with the sweet dogs every week. That being said, it is going to be stressful environment for an animal no matter what. I hope that all of the animals get adopted ASAP!!

i rescued a black pitbull from their county and certified him as a therapy service dog. he was abused pretty heavily and had issues peeing as soon as you would approach him. i immediately took this dog and went to the vet he was in very good health and was clearly going to be a special dog. the shelter helped me with the neutering and tagging and the vet helped me with other things unrelated. i still have the dog 3 1/2 years later. he is a big cuddle bug and sleeps in bed with me every night on pillows instead of a hard concrete floor. although some staff were a bit unfriendly most of them were very helpful and fine to work with and had the appropriate medical staff to keep the animals in optimal cost health until i could rescue and get him a full work up at a vet hospital.

I adopted a dog 9 years ago from Campbell County Animal Shelter. He was 1 year old when I got him from this shelter. I was undecided at the time because we had another dog and I didn’t want to upset her. But Bugsy (his name when met him) choose me after a couple of visits while deciding and I immediately fell in love with him. The animal shelter couldn’t have been nicer and patient with me. So my family adopted him and changed his name to Charlie, because he looked like a Charlie. He died a week ago suddenly and I’m heartbroken along with the rest of my family. He was the best little dog and friend ever and I’ll love him the rest of my life. In fact on all of our long walks and places he went with us everyone loved Charlie, I want to thank whoever abandoned him 9 years ago because I got the privilege of having Charlie in my life.

My boyfriend and I went there and when we walked in the girl at the front desk had her headphones and looked miserable. We weren't greeted or anything. We went back to look at the dogs and we found one we liked. I went to the front desk and the girl still had her headphones in, she made it seem like I was interrupting her listening to her music by the sigh and eye roll that was made as she took her headphones out. She told me the dog we were interested in was already taken. Maybe a sign indicating he was taken already would've helped. Workers and volunteers at PAWS in Dearborn county Indiana and Boone county animal shelter are always friendly and eager to help. They actually look and act like they enjoy what they do.

Employees were very understanding and helpful and kind.They wouldnt take any cats , though ,as I saw a man get turned away with 4 kittens, but they offered a list of alternative agencies.Covid19 measures were being followed.

I found a cat that was abandoned in a home.. was able to get it out of the basement garage door. Called Campbell Co. animal shelter, and they said they don't keep stray cats. That I should just let it go, and let it fend for itself. So if you have found a stray don't bother calling them.

They give a discount to Senior Citizens. We couldn't go inside. But we had no problems with them. I would adopt again from them.
