The St. Louis Senior Dog Project is an exemplary organization whose mission is to find homes for…read moreolder animals who are often forgotten and left behind due to various circumstances. STLSDP, is a foster-based program, endowed with compassionate volunteers, who provide medical, physical and emotional care before their rescues are placed into their forever homes, It is often the last hope for these older animals. I applaud their diligence in the adoption process as well, as it ensures the most successful placement for every animal.. Adopting several senior dogs through STLSDP has been extremely rewarding. Every dog we have adopted has brought immense joy and love into our family. These older animals desperately need a safe and loving home to finish out their remaining years. Please adopt an older pet and thank you to STLSDP for providing these loving animals with the consistent and compassionate care they so richly deserve.

Explaining my situation, I made clear that I needed assistance and was asking for any information, if they could take this poor dog, etc. All I received was a very cold response via email - "At this time we have no openings. I'm sorry." I then inquired about other places and said that I was desperate. I got another response asking a couple of questions, and for a picture. I sent them my replies, and then another cold, unfeeling response: There are many cavalier rescues and beagle rescues. It was so unhelpful. I just thought people would try harder to help.

They really focus on the health and well-being of the cats, doing a thorough job of ensuring an adopter is ready to be a cat owner. They care so much about the cats and take great care of them. They are trustworthy and I enjoy volunteering as a foster home for them. Their facility for some of the cats is adorable and safety is their #1 priority. If I was planning to adopt a cat, I would definitely choose The Cat Network.

They micro chip these pets back to them selves and refuse to let you change the info over to you on the chip. Just in case 7 years later you decide to abandon your pet or you die was another excuse I was just given.

I'll certainly never adopt from them again!

Brought in horse with EPM but refuse the breeder when they heard of his story and offered to take…read morehim back. Mind you the breeders husband is a veterinarian. They claim another travel is too stressful yet turn him out with other donkeys and livestock without proper quarantine. That's stressful. The intake story was also false and when confronted they deleted every post from here and TikTok. Now they're crying victim because they got caught and won't make it right so everyone who knows this horse, the breeder and everyone involved have started speaking up for this horse. Letting the breeder & veterinarian take him would free up room for more rescues and save money on feed and medicine. Yet they refuse and fight back. So what's the motive here? It's definitely not the best interest of the horse. This makes me now question what motives are behind the other animals in their care. The paddocks are nothing but mud. No proper shelter. They share videos of the animals standing in water and mud, covered in mud. This is not a proper facility to house so many animals. This is not a reputable rescue. When questioned they deleted posts and comments then banned those questioning. What are they hiding behind the sob stories that were proven false? This is not ok.
