My husband and I fell in love with a little dog at the shelter and immediately put our name in to adopt her. We were told we were #1 on the list. We were delighted. We were told we could take her home 6 wks after she was spayed. We visited her weekly for about 5 weeks. We held her, took pictures of her, had a sign made with her name added to her for our motor home,called many times to see when she would get her surgery. Her surgery finally took place either the day before or after Thanksgiving. I called the Monday after Thanksgiving to find out how she was and when we could Take her home. I was told someone else had adopted her and they were picking her up the next day. I was shocked and angry. No apology just “someone must have made a mistake “ by a very cold sounding woman. The staff knew us since we were there all of the time and they had to get her out of her kennel for us to hold her. We will never adopt from them. Beware!

Mission: The mission of caloosa humane society is to serve, shelter, and protect the homeless pets in our care. We are dedicated to finding permanent and loving adoptive homes for our companion animals in need. Our no-kill facility provides low cost spay/neuter services to the community with the goal of reducing the extreme overpopulation of unwanted pets.
Programs: Throughout 2017 caloosa humane society took in over 1000 homeless animals. Over 900 of those animals found their forever homes. Caloosa humane society also provided safe, low-cost spay/neuter to surrounding communities and also made it possible for members of the community to keep pets in their homes by providing free veterinary services to members who would have otherwise surrendered their pets due to unexpected medical expenses they could not afford.
