My Nonprofit Reviews

My first adoption from HUA was in 1998 and I was wary of having a dog flown to me but couldn't drive all the way to Nebraska from Maryland. The HUA staff set up EVERYthing very, very carefully and explained everything to me in advance. When my little Schnauzer arrived, he was in great shape and happy to go "home". Since then, I've adopted 6 more dogs from HUA over the years. The last four were driven East by two of the most wonderful and caring volunteers/Directors of the organization, Josh and Tera. We set up a convenient place to meet on the road, and the transfer was made. In all cases, the dogs had been loved, loved, loved by Josh and Tera. Even before leaving HUA, the dogs were carefully bathed and accessorized before going to their new home.
One of the things that is so obvious when I first meet my new companion is that the dog has been cared for in a gentle and kindly manner, with good socialization and plenty of affection and caring. The dogs are never kept in a cage there and the volunteers and staff spend so many hours and hours simply loving the animals - petting and rubbing bellies and cooing in their ears.
HUA takes care of hundreds of dogs (and some cats) at a time, and each one gets focused, individual attention and care. They do a fabulous job of providing the love and care an animal needs to find its forever home.
