    We are very thankful for the experience we had here. A few months after losing our 16 year old boy Murphy to kidney issues we were ready for some kitty love in our home again. We had a specific cat in mind that we saw on their website and he was actually being adopted when we arrived. With a love for orange kitties they did their best to introduce us to each of the cats they had. From there we met Sheba (now Louise) and fell in love. She definitely had a rough life before coming to the shelter some trust issues. Since the adoption in March she has settled in with all of her favorite toys, cozy spots in our home and humans to snuggle with. Thank you so much for bringing her into our lives!

    My boyfriend recently adopted his dog from here, and they are amazing :-) Boyfriend has wanted a dog for a while, and he said that right after he bought a house, one of the first things he would do is get a canine companion, and that's exactly what he did. He also knew what kind of dog he wanted and stalked Petfinder and other sites for weeks on end to see if they had any dogs that he'd be interested in. And then we met Alfred. Alfred originally came back in a Petfinder search and we saw that he was located at Baypath. The staff came in one morning and found poor Alfred tied to the front door :-( He is a young all-white Boxer. Since they knew nothing about him, they brought him into the shelter, took care of him, sent him to the vet to get his exam and all his updated shots, neutered him, and then put him up on their website in hopes of finding him his forever home. My boyfriend read his profile on Baypath's webpage and fell in love right away. We drove out to Baypath a few days later and met him in person. He is the sweetest, most gentle and loving dog I've ever met. From the second they brought him out to see us (they had to keep him separate from the other dogs because he caught a mild case of kennel cough), he was licking our faces and enjoying his belly rubs. My boyfriend filled out an adoption application, and the whole time, Alfred was by his side. Staff members would walk by him and pet him and coo at him, and you can clearly tell that Alfred loved them very much. They told us as much as they could about Alfred, updated us on his health, and made plans for my boyfriend to pick him up the following week. We were there on a Sunday, and the place was *insanely* busy. In addition to all the animals barking and playing with potential parents, there was a line of people waiting to fill out adoption applications, nice people coming by to drop off blankets, food, cupcakes, etc. The staff there was very patient and extremely helpful. You can tell by their interactions how much they loved the animals and how well they treated them. They took time with each client and didn't try to rush anyone. For anyone visiting the center, you can take any of the dogs there out for a walk (they're located in a very woodsy area with no neighbors, so it's a great spot for walking), or you can visit their cat room, which is essentially just that. It seems like they have a very quick turnaround for adopting, so if you see an animal on the website that you really like, you should stop by and see the animal ASAP! My absolute *favorite* thing about this shelter is that they're a NO-KILL shelter. That means that they try to find each and every single animal there a "forever" home. They feed their animals well, take care of them, walk the dogs, give them treats, etc. Most of the workers there are volunteers, and you can genuinely see the person/animal bonding going on in there. Truly touching, even if you're not an animal-lover like me. Long story short -- he ended up adopting Alfred and it has been a few weeks already. Alfred has adjusted amazingly well. We can already tell that he used to have an owner because he is housebroken and knows a few commands, like "sit" and "paw" and "down." He is incredibly intelligent and gentle for such a large dog and did I mention SWEET?? We love him so much and are incredibly grateful to the staff at Baypath for having taken him in and taking such wonderful care of him. Thank you! :-)

    What this incredibly devoted staff (&, by planning oversight) Board of Trustees achieves for animals EVERY DAY is nothing less than astonishing to me. A phenomenal organization working with extremely limited resources. As a volunteer, business person & foster parent, I see a clear agenda here: what is the best course for our dogs, cats & community today; what do they need; what do we need to do to support our foster animals & families; how can we bring our charges to safe "forever homes." Moreover, the pros here are constantly managing interactions with potential fosters & adopters, veterinarians and multiple other sources and respondents. In short: here you will find animals who, though perhaps abandoned, neglected and/or abused, are cared for by pros and volunteers who are devoted to finding them the best possible outcomes.

    We made a small tax donation to the organization as a thank you as the price for the dog was slightly less expensive than other organizations.

Our consult was with Nance, and she was very patient in explaining the process and talking us through some initial things that we were struggling with. Then, we started with a training package that included 3 private training classes and 2 months of group obedience classes. We also went to a few puppy kindergarten classes. Nicole did the majority of our trainings and she has been a god-sent. She is very good with the dogs, and her energy level makes the training classes fun both for us and our dog. We learned a lot from Nicole and she helped us to feel a lot less stressed out and actually enjoy the puppyhood. The obedience class is set up like a monthly subscription, where you can go to as many classes as you want. We end up going about 3-4 times a week for 30 minutes, as it is a great activity to mentally exercise our dog and provide socialization while working alongside other dogs. We also started bringing our dog to their dog day camp 2x a week. Tim was also very patient in explaining the process. The dog day camp has been great in getting her to play with other dogs and allows her to learn obedience from others aside from us.

It's remarkable to see the progress that they make with her and how much they enjoy their training sessions! Nance adapts her training sessions to the needs of the individual dog and she is quick to assess how they learn best. She is always patient, kind, and encouraging. We are so lucky to have her expertise, she has changed the lives of so many dogs!

She was very open about the process, answered all my questions patiently. She gave me a a list of locations that is within driving distance but was open if I wanted a place of my own choosing. I'm glad I chose one of the places she shared, she knew hwere to go, and good places to take the pics. At our appointment, she came on time and was very well-prepared. My dog had such a good time during our session, and I did too. when the photos came, the result was amazing, and selecting them and getting the digital copies was a breeze.

Deciding whether or not it was worth the money, time, effort, etc. Clearly I decided to do it and let me tell you- IT WAS 100% WORTH IT ALL. I didn't have any idea where to go to take photos- so Dog Proof set up an absolute perfect array of places to take her. We went to wide open fields, beautiful lakes, graffiti walls, bridges- it was quiet the adventure. Ruth had a blast! Unlike most photo studios, Dog Proof let Ruth be a dog. They captured her jumping for her tennis ball, digging in the sand, exploring the woods. Every single photo showcased Ruth having the time of her life, enjoying being a dog. Not to mention, Ang is not afraid to get muddy! She got in the dirt to take half of our photos- getting the best of Ruth's angles! It was incredible to see her work!! When the photos came back, we were stunned. These photos will last a lifetime, moments that I could never have captured on my own, that are hanging on our walls forever. I can't thank Dog Proof enough for giving my family such a beautiful gift. If you're on the fence about getting your pups photographed- I suggest you do it! You won't regret it at all if you use Dog Proof. (AND your dog will be happy you chose them too- Ruth left the shoot exhausted with lots of cheese & meat in her belly!)
