Common Sense For Animals

They will lie to people who want to adopt. They tell clients there pit buts are trained and good with children and other pets thats a total lie Dangerous!

The volunteers are great but this is not a NO KILL shelter. It's all a lie if they tell you so.

Extremely responsible shelter in Warren County. We got there to adopt our Murphy, our 5mo Border Collie/Husky mix. They have animals for all households. It's impossible to go there and don't find your best friend. It doesn't matter if you're dog team or cat team: Your furever friend is there. If you can't have a pet for any reason, you can also volunteer to walk dogs or helping taking care of the cats. Don't wanna get attached to a new pet? No problem. You can talk to them to foster or simply drop there a donation when you can!

We have adopted 3 cats from CSA- the care they were given in the shelter was amazing. The cats are wonderful companions. We are very grateful for the vet and staff.

We found a beautiful puppy whose name was Jimmy and we have renamed him Sheldon. He is a wonderful dog and was well cared for. The staff was wonderful and truly cared about our needs. If anyone wants to find a forever friend I highly recommend Common Sense for Animals.

I came down here with my mom to cremate her 23 yr old cat and I met a beautiful orange cat named Andrew and we came back a week later to pick up the ashes and I got out the car hoping to see this baby again and I say his name and he comes running to me made my day

Greatest place to adopt from. Very helpful and adoption fees are next to nothing if any at all! I have gotten 3 dogs and at least 5 friends have done the same. They also have their own veterans and give you discount for their service. Need more facilities like this.

I've adopted a few times from here. It's a very positive experience! They're a very busy animal shelter, so yes expect to see things all around and for it to smell like poop and animals. They're extremely reasonably priced and they take really good of the animals they have. They have Dog, Cats, Chickens, Rabbits & Birds! Don't sleep on Common Sense they have the buddy you want! Lol

We adopted a sweet kitty from Common Sense and absolutely adore her. The volunteers who helped us were also great. However, she had a number of medical issues (ear infections, yeast infection on her skin/open scabs on her skin, rotten teeth that may need to be pulled, fleas, and more). I know that things spread easily in shelters, but many cats seemed to have health issues going on that were brushed off.

Our poor cat's ears were pretty nasty and her skin was concerning - it seemed like she must have been in some pain when we adopted her (as well as severely itchy). Since this shelter is owned by a vet, they could at least do some checkups - and some monthly preventative flea medicine!

In October of 2017, I adopted a spaniel mix. The shelter had given him the name Andy and he was transported there from the south. I initially went to the shelter, to volunteer for the day. That particular day, the shelter was flooded with dogs searching for a forever home. There were a multitude of puppy litters that were the center of attention, but the only thing grasping my attention was Andy.

He had just arrived and showed many signs of previous malnourishment. He was not eating or drinking what the this shelter was providing for him and was shaking and very timid. I went home and could not shake the sad thoughts out of my head. I returned the next day, knowing I needed to be the solution to all the problematic things this dog has gone through.

I adopted Andy and renamed him Oakley. From the first interaction up until now, our instant connection has only flourished and grown stronger. He has put on some weight, and is finally HEALTHY and LOVED. I am so grateful that Warren County's Common Sense Shelter has provided the assistance towards finding the forever homes to the dogs in need of them. Below are photos of him beginning from when I first adopted him versus now.
