We have always adopted dogs but every place is different. She also socialized the smaller dogs so our little guy was in her group everyday. You can see that all the shelter people really care there. We are so very happy with his acclimation to our pack. It was a great experience for us. PLEASE support this shelter.

Carrie, the woman who runs the organization, has a HUGE heart and spends an enormous amount of time rescuing threatened cats and dogs, getting them healthy and well-behaved (although, to be honest, most of them are already very healthy and well-trained by the time they get to SIAR), and finding them permanent loving homes. You can see their list of currently up-for-adoption animals here: http://www.siarescuers.com/ADOPTABLE_ANIMALS.html the list changes weekly, and if you're looking for something in particular, contact Carrie and she'll try to match you with just what you're looking for. Once we have the baby and things settle down & we adopt a new dog, we'll definitely go through SIAR. Carrie charges a small fee for adoption, just enough to cover shots/altering/microchipping and any necessary vet bills. She's a wonderful lady and does a huge service to the animals and animal lovers of Sacramento!

After losing our Bernese Mountain Dog to cancer two years earlier, we were ready to embark on…read morebringing home another "big" dog into our homes and hearts. We had applied with multiple rescues across Sacramento, but many were non-respondent or had old legacy listings for dogs that were no longer available. When we saw "Fuggle" pop up on AdoptAPet.com one morning, I knew I had to put in an application for our family, despite feeling hopeless that it would not go anywhere. The application was quite thorough, but was quite similar to those we'd filled out for our Berner. I received an auto-reply stating they would reach back within a week, and lo and behold 7 days later, I received the happiest news and sweetest email, "I am happy to tell you that we have selected you for my favorite puppy! He really is the cutest.  What is your schedule like? I am hoping to do homechecks this week and then have the puppies picked up from the adoption event this weekend.  Just to make it easier for us to get it done :)" We quickly got in touch for a homecheck after work one day, were officially approved and were able to take "Fuggle" home just 13 days after submitting our application. The adoption process was so incredibly smooth and easy, and everyone at Recycled Pets was incredibly nice and professional, from the home visit, to the foster parents, to the adoption day. We've since attended a puppy reunion with his litter, and have joined a wonderful online community that celebrates everyone's extra-special love for their Recycled Pet. I'm so happy that Recycled Pets helped us find "Fuggle" but just as happy that we have such a caring and loving rescue organization here in Sacramento.

A couple of weeks ago I had noticed my precious Smol Cat was losing weight quickly, and her normal…read morevet diagnosed her with stage 4 dental disease, which entails extractions. I know it's a necessity - but our family is not able to afford the surgery prices. I turned to Facebook to ask friends for advice. In response to my post, a friend put me back in touch with Cats About Town Society, a fantastic no-kill cat rescue group for whom I volunteered back during grad school. I was immediately able to get Smol scheduled for a consultation and then for the surgery last week. The process was easy and clear, very good communication throughout, and just reminded me of all the reasons I volunteered with CATS in the first place. It was also substantially affordable (comparatively), costing about 1/3 what we would have had to pay at her normal vet. Had it not been for CATS, I honestly do not know what we would've done. But because of the phenomenal committed folks at CATS, my baby is now healthy and able to eat again. I highly recommend CATS, both for adopting babycats AND for these surprise medical needs.
