SpokAnimal is a busy animal shelter that is surprisingly clean, with animals that seem well cared for. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, sweet, and polite. They go above and beyond for their animals, ensuring they get the best care and adoption. The organization offers a Guardian Angel program and medical stays for animals in need. They also provide free pet food for those who need it and welcome donations of items like blankets and towels.
The adoption experience is generally great and quick, with staff allowing potential adopters to look around. They are honest about an animal's temperament, such as if a dog is nervous, which is appreciated. However, it is important for adopters to ask questions about vaccinations and medical history, as all required information may not always be fully communicated. Adopting an animal requires patience, time, energy, and kindness, as shelter animals may need help transitioning to a new home. It is best to contact the busy shelter by text message for a prompt response.
We found a dog loose in our busy neighborhood, so I took him to Spokanimal to see if he was chipped. The woman who helped me was very helpful, despite having a very busy afternoon. Luckily the dog was microchipped, and will be reunited with his owner.
