Milton Animal Shelter

I used to walk dogs here when I was in high school down the street. The people who work/volunteer at the shelter are very caring.

Pros: all

Cons: none

A very small shelter built in 1980, the building is now crumbling, but the animals still receive the best of care thanks to non-profit group Milton Animal League. Many dogs and cats up for adoption of all sizes, ages, and breeds, with the occasional rabbit or other small animal. All adopters are screened, and volunteers try to make sure the adoption is the best match between animal and adopter. All animals have their vaccinations and are spayed/neutered and assessed for temperament, the adoption fees are very reasonable. I have adopted 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 rabbits over the years from this shelter. They definitely suffer from a lack of volunteers, but the volunteers that are there are extremely committed to the animals. This shelter does not have a "time limit", adoptable animals are kept until they find a home.

Pros: knowledgeable volunteer staff, animals well cared for, all animals vaccinated and spayed/neutered

Cons: small building, overextended volunteers
