Ellis Co. SPCA

They are adopting unaltered animals out at a discounted price which, as any RESPONSIBLE rescue should know, is only adding to the problem that they are supposedly trying to fight. Of course when you say something on their Facebook post they delete it and block you from commenting. Please don't adopt unaltered animals. Adopt responsibly and from someplace much better than here.

Very friendly and helpful in scanning a cat to check if it had been chipped. Was able to locate owners but they didn't want her. SPCA informed me that I cud keep her, which I did.

They give out special priced shots for your pets. They are easy to find.

There are some hard-working volunteers here who truly care for the animals

I bought my puppy here and the people and animals are just the best I give it 5 stars for how nice these people are. I really recommend this SPCA

They do not give animals enough time :-( HIGH KILL SHELTER

These animals need good homes. They are all really great pets that just need someone to love them. Find your new best friend here today!

I adopted an Alaskan Husky on 9/23/2018. After taking the dog to the vet per contract agreement I was informed that the dogs life span had been reduced to 4 years at the most and medical treatment would cost over $2500.00. I returned the dog to the SPCA I mb Ellis County with copies of the diagnosis expecting the refund of my adoption fees, which is laid out in paragraph 2 of the contract, I was told that the director of the facility stated that I would not get the refund
When I asked to speak with the director she was not available because she was in a meeting. This agency has violated contract law and they do not care about the animals at all just making money. If you love your animals and care about ethical business practices please do not go the place.

The staff was really nice but the odor as soon as we walked in the door was awful. Upon looking at the dogs each cage was covered in both poop and pee. Awful. I've been to many shelters before and this by far was the worst.

I personally love animals it was a great excperience it was so fun

They have recently fired and hired new people. They now charge pure bred Resues to pick up dogs and it's filthy in there.

Friendly and helpful staff, it could be cleaner, but the people really care about the animals and want to get them to good homes. I love going there and playing with the cats and kittens to give them some TLC.

We have nothing but good to say about ECSPCA & everyone that we met through the Adoption of our Puppy. We could not be happier for matching us with our new Family member

They are so lovable with all the animals. The staff was amazing. Also it is very clean no odor.

Great animals would love to be able to bring them all hom

Takes very good care of animals. We always take our pets here to get spayed/neutered, and all has gone great!

My daughtered volunteered here for a assignment at school. Everyone was friendly. Great place to adopt a pet.

My sisters dog was there and came home with kennel cough.....when she called there they told her call mobile vet and hung up on her......feel bad for all the dogs living at this dirty place.......needs to have an inspection ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!KENNEL COUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We went there to ask a simple question about the spay/neuter network promo for the $20 orange and black cat special. It said that they pick up the animals in their parking lot and we wanted to make sure of the details surrounding it, but the front desk woman was very rude and said that there was no such special and that it was full price even when we showed her the Facebook post from them saying it was. She got angry and told my dad to leave when he tried explaining that they also had it on their website. What a horrible person and should not be stationed as their customer service representative. Please inform your employees to be up to date and to not be so stinking rude to your customers. Thank you!

I question how much this place cares about animals but, I m positive they don t care about customer service. Attempted to give them a stray that wandered onto my property and was told that the shelter was full. When I asked about what other options/shelters were available the lady acted like I was really cutting in to her being lazy time. After taking the dog to a vet in Ennis, it turns out that the dog was chipped by, and adopted from, the Ellis county SPCA. The SPCA never even offered to check the dog for a chip or to locate the animal s owner.
In this era when animals have practically as many, if not more, rights than humans, I would expect the SPCA of all places to be much more compassionate.

They found my baby J.C. Thank goodness for Ellis county SPCA!! Thank y'all so much!!

This place is a death sentence for animals. The lady in charge does nothing to try and save animals, just puts them down. Do not take stray animals to this place.

They took care of my babies ride to get neutered for cheap!

Wish everyone would save an animal..they need more volunteers

This place was very dirty and unorganized with a not so nice staff. I would still adopt a dog from here but I only give two stars because the staff is unpleasant and the facilities are disgusting.

Wouldn't answer the phone. I saved a kitten in Waxahachie, they have a Waxahachie address. They refused to taked the kitten because I needed to take her to somewhere in Waxahachie. Horrible place, I cant believe how hard it is to try and save an animals life.

You can adopt a cat or a dog off the street and give it a good home

We adopted a cat today for my daughter for Xmas ...she is a great little cat..staff was so friendly I highly recommend this shelter. ....we just found out from vet that I adopted. A rare cat and didn't even know it she's over a year. And weigjs 5.5 pounds so she's a miniture cat very rare and she was dropped off at shelter she is adorable...and wont get any bigger..

Needs to take better care of the animals they are taking in... and make sure their in good shape before u just adopt them out.

My dog needed a companion & I chose the SPCA; believing i was helping humanity. I read the contract, noted the dog had several vaccines. I thought preventative vaccines.
590$ later, my poor dog is I'll with kennel cough & a secondary respiratory infection connected with kennel cough. My dog has never been I'll, now he is suffering because these ppl sold me a sick animal!!!

We enjoy going to visit and see the dogs but fall in love and want to take them home!

Outstanding people doing their best to find loving homes for all our four legged friends in need.

Volunteers needed! Come just to spend some time with some lonely dogs and cats. The animals would be so happy you came and maybe you fall in love!!

The staff is beyond amazing and the animals are always well taken care of. So many people try to give the spca a bad rep and I can't stand it! Without this place and these genuine people so many animals would be starving with no place to go. Please, please check the Ellis county SPCA if you're wanting to get a dog.

I went to The SPCA when my dog went missing. They were very concerned and helpful with trying to help me find my Cowboy. I still haven't found him and there are many animals to adopt.

Great experience got a wonderful dog named nelly
belle thanks

This place doesn t care of animal properly and should be investigated for all the neglect they have caused.

I just wished I could bring all of the dogs home but I can't

Very rude staff. I would avoid this place, You would just be wasting your time.

Very nice and friendly staff. Location is clean and you can tell they love the animals.

We adopted a great dog from here. So glad we stopped in.

Our cat almost die 1 day after we got him 300.00 later he's still here Mr Bobby boshad,

They have great deals on spaying and neutering. Love this place.
