Great place and great people. I have all my dogs spade here. Although recently you can't get a dog in for an apt. anywhere and they seem to be always booked.I have a new pup I've been trying to get spade and their site to set an apt. Continuously says booked. Been trying everyday for the last 6 months. All in all great place and affordable

The SPCA of Wake County will not stop sending me mail. I don't even live in North Carolina, much less anywhere near Wake County, I have never gone to this SPCA or used their service in any way, and would never adopt from them. I made the mistake of donating to a friend's fundraiser on Facebook one day and my information was passed on to SPCA of Wake County. They constantly send me mail and I have called and left voicemails (because no one answers the phone when I have called) and sent emails numerous times and marked their mail as return to sender. I have been trying for so long to get off their mailing list. They still keep mailing me and have never responded to any of my requests. I don't know what it takes to stop getting their mail. I never signed up for it and had no idea my information was going to be passed on to them. If they get your information, they will never stop contacting you and asking for donations.

We got a 9-week-old puppy, Dustin from them yesterday and we love him! I appreciated the adoption process too, they asked specific questions about how we would train him and it made me feel good that they screen people that way so the dogs get good homes. He's healthy, sweet, and well mannered, he's not too timid so he was treated right. I love this rescue and I'd highly recommend them.

Sent us home with a known dangerous dog that was kept sedated for our visits and we were not told of this until we were walking out of the door with him and were handed a bottle of pills. Fast forward four months and three attacks latter, when the SPCA ignored our pleas for help and the dog was put down. The SPCA does not care about these animals, or your family. They do care about the fees they charge you though.

Wake County SPCA abuses dogs with castration and ovary removal. Sadly the result of this type of abuse is problems with health and behavior for the life of the dogs.My dog Tig was adopted from Wake SPCA; she suffers from issues with confidence that are likely related to a spay procedure performed on her at an early age. If SPCA put a priority on health for dogs in their care they would not ABUSE them in this way.Modern ovary sparing spay is the appropriate approach to sterilization of female dogs but as a RESCUE MILL the SPCA sees the profits and uses the lower cost ovary removal process even though it creates problems for the dogs and their new families. The issue with castration of male dogs is even worse resulting in very difficult situations for the dogs and the adoptive families.Please don’t support this ABUSIVE organization!

*SPCA OF WAKE COUNTY*This place does a GREAT SERVICE for our community. We have been here many times looking for a small dog and/or puppies. They don’t ever have either and that is frustrating. We end up looking at huge dogs- most of which are Pit Bull mixes. That’s not really what folks want for their 6 year old child. But some of them are sweet and if we had a big fenced yard or lived on a farm, we would probably have taken a couple of them home. But we don’t.So we end up looking at the bunnies and then the cats. They don’t really have kittens either. Their “kittens” are all 6 months old and up. They may have them on other days but we can’t go their 2-3 times per week hoping to find one before others do.All that said, and I realize it sounds sort of negative, I apologize for that. I really like this place. So I donate money to them every year. I encourage others to do the same bc at the end of the day, it’s still a very necessary function in our community. And it’s not their fault that we’ve had bad luck getting a dog here.I almost forgot- HOW GREAT is the name of the road they’re located on?? “PETFINDER LANE”. That’s simply fantastic I think!If you agree with any of this, please give me a thumbs up ?- and click the follow button. I’d appreciate that.Have a nice day,RJ

I do not enjoy writing negative reviews, especially for a facility that I know does well for the community, but after my dog's life was put at risk on Monday by one of the foster dogs that came from this facility, I refuse to sweep this under the rug.On Monday, my leashed and trained dog was attacked by an unleashed and untrained pit bull (I am using the colloquial breed name, I do not care about your facility's policy on "breed shaming") that was being fostered from this facility. How dare you people foster out this monster you call a dog and downplay its desire to maim and kill other animals to my neighbors who unfortunately were assigned this dog as a foster. How do you know that the animal "wasn't socialized" and yet not test it with another shelter dog on a leash before it left the shelter? Why did my dog and I have to essentially be bait for this dangerous and aggressive animal? How can you people, in good faith, keep this dog on sedatives while it is in the shelter to make it more "subdued", so people will agree to take the animal into their homes?Thank goodness my dog wasn't badly injured in the attack, but without the help of my neighbor (the foster parent) prying the pit bull off of my dog's neck, this would have been a totally different review. How many other pets and people (as I also sustained injuries from the attack) must be hurt or killed before you realize that downplaying an animal's aggressive behavior only causes harm to the community? Shame on you, if you can't con people into taking in a dangerous dog- put it down next time to save us all the trouble. My dog and other members of the community don't deserve to be bait just so you all can push dogs out faster.

This place is a very easy and simple location to volunteer, work, or adopt a pet. They welcome visitors who just want play with the animals, so I highly recommend this adoption facility.

Large rooms for each animal, tons of toys for them to play with. Adopted my first dog from here a couple months ago and she's perfect. The staff was helpful and the process was pretty quick. Thanks!
