After multiple attempts to reach out to this organization, pleading with them through e-mails and phone calls after reporting a serious, on-going situation of animal abuse that requires immediate attention/investigation, this agency has deeply frustrated both myself and my neighbours involved who have first hand witnessed the cruelty. We also made contact with the SPCA and local city authorities who told us to go through the channel of the Humane Society, basically giving us further red tape to go through that lead back to the same dead end. My one neighbour has made several attempts to get this particular case dealt with over the course of 3-4 years now. This is absolutely pathetic. I am very saddened that very little has been done at all to aide these poor suffering animals and they will probably die at the hands of their abusive owner or continue to live in suffering. The humane society has pretty much proven to us that they don't care much to help us save these dogs and get them out of harms way. This is a two-faced agency who doesn't give help when it is in dire need. Shame on you for saying you stand for the rights of animals. The way this situation has been neglected is disgusting to me. Never supporting them ever again. Don't trust them to help you fight animal cruelty when you really need it. 👎

I am so incredibly disappointed! I have donated numerous amounts of food and every pet I owned I have adopted from here. So I don't like I have to write this. But Today July 31st 2018 myself and my fiances mom brought a stray kitten into the humane society around 7pm. The kitten was rescued earlier in the day from Wyandotte and Drouillard being found in the middle of traffic. The kitten ran into the car dash. We managed to coax it out after a number of tries. It was a grey kitten with yellow eyes. Easily 8 weeks old, it was so small. We had it wrapped in a blanket and rushed to the humane society. We both have cats already and didn't know if this kitten had a disease so we couldn't bring it home. Plus I have a 1 bedroom apartment with 2 cats already. The staff at the desk were not helpful. They said their rescue area closed at 5:30. I get they were closed but it's not like I was coming in too "look" I had a kitten that was sick and needed shelter asap. They acted like it was such an inconvenience to them to take this kitten.I explained that I do not have the room or else I would take it. They sighed and took in the kitten. But no thank you for rescuing or bringing it to shelter, they pretty much ripped it from my arms and took off. No compassion what so ever. Again I understand they were closing but this is a living thing!! For a place that talks about rescue and helping animals I was so disappointed. I didn't leave feeling like I accomplished anything. I will definitely be going in soon to check on the little kitten. I know he will get adopted fast cause he is so young but the attitude we received for rescuing this kitten was unacceptable........

I am appalled and saddened by the way the Humane Society, has been handling a consistent abuse/neglect/animal cruelty case in our neighborhood. If you call you have to leave a message, and they do not return your calls. Multiple people have called and complained in our neighborhood, 2 witnesses have tons of proof that this is taking place. I have contacted the WECHS myself numerous times, as well as others, I even emailed back and forth with Melanie. The final result we all got is basically that we must be making these stories up. The truth of the matter is when you have to depend on the Humane Society, they are not always dependable to be there in cases like this, and if you are hoping they will come out and investigate in a timely fashion, they won't. They have let all of us and the animals involved down time and time again. If you contact the SPCA, which we all did, they refer you to the nearest Humane Society in the area. There is no going above in hopes the Humane Society takes this more seriously. One thing I have learned, they Stand for the Rights of SOME ANIMALS, depends on which ones they want to stand for. If you want to adopt a pet this is the place to go, you want to donate your time and effort, or money they will gladly accept, but I won't be donating anymore to this organization.

Love the vet clinic there! If you need anything like flea and tick prevention, shots or need to get your pet "fixed" its the place to go without the boutique pricing.
