I have adopted from them multiple times. They are truly amazing at what they do and these reviews are shameful. Just because you were declined for an animal for whatever reason, (which they have every right to do, they're not animal shelter or a pet store) doesn't mean you should complain about a NONPROFIT purely volunteer run organization. All these reviews are basically just saying that they either didn't respond fast enough to YOUR liking or they're saying that they're just angry and/or upset that they were declined in general. I want to point out that two or more people said that they were declined for puppies and the reason was about their work schedules. Puppies need 24/7 constant care, you can't just go to work and leave it with a relative or a friend. When puppies are neglected that's when they begin to act out and that's usually why people RETURN them!!! It's very important that a puppy is preferably with someone who either works from home or is home 24/7 ideally, having a "flexible" work schedule just simply isn't enough especially if there's another family out there that can offer them more than that. If you were declined, it was probably because there was a better option for that specific animal, and how is that anyone's fault/ these people's problem? Y'all are literally just upset about these again NON PAID VOLUNTEERS not catering to YOU specifically out of all the hundreds of applications they probably get. Truly shameful honestly. These people genuinely put so much effort and care into selecting the best homes for these animals and they don't get paid a single cent, yet some people are so entitled that they feel the need to make a yelp page just to complain like y'all are sad. If you want an animal that you can just pick out no questions asked without the proper vaccinations, and vet work then go to a shelter and pay for all that yourself. Feel free to also deal with all the ringworm, flees, emaciation, and all the other medical issues that goes along with that too, which a rescue like this always takes care of before they ever adopt out. Shameful behavior :(
