They’re only goal here is to keep the shelters packed so they can ignore any animal in need. If you do not own your home or have a fenced in backyard, no matter how active you are, they will deny you. The requirements are outrageous here. My husband is a fitness trainer and him & I are extremely active. We hike regularly as well as have a neighborhood dog park and live a few doors down from my sister and her wife who have two amazing dogs. I so badly wanted to adopt instead of buying out of fear that I’d contribute to a puppy mill. I was hoping to have a great adoption success story and contribute to my local animal shelter but it didn’t turn out like that. In the end I had no choice. We bought our beautiful French bulldog Evie from a breeder on greenfield puppies. She cost us $4500 but she was well worth it ❤ufe0f This animal shelter should be ashamed of themselves. They contribute to puppy mills far more than anything else.

Please if want to adobt a pet please don't do it through Howard County Amimal Control & Adoption Center. They will shack you down for money if you do not get the pet spayed/neutered in Howard County. The kitten had a hard time gaining weight and so he couldn't get spayed/neutered when they suggested and we don't live in Howard County. The only reason why this place chosen because someon suggested it to us. We should have did our research. Even after they were sent the documentation that the kitten was spayed/neuered they keep saying that we are not compliant so you will continue to keep trying to increase the fines saying you were not complaint. So now we have to wait and see what the judge says.

Would leave 0 stars if possible. Found a kitten and saved it from a fox, and brought it in after work the next day. All the staff members were incredibly rude. You’d think people in the helping animal industry would be kinder about others trying to help abandoned animals. Very unpleasant experience and has deterred me from every wanting to come back or to consider them as a place to potentially adopt from. Terrible miserable staff.
