It was -1 degrees the other day, so frantically i found rescue groups in Michigan and I started calling to advocate for them. The lady that answered the phone was nice and resourceful. He would need to send the inquiry via online and get them to Adopt-a-Pet, but that never happened because he said the mom moved them the next day. I'm a bit upset because it's evident that the mom should be fixed, but it could be that no one in his neighborhood is aware of the practice. Even though this place wasn't able to help, but they were very helpful and sincere. I hope that the little family is safe from bad people, wildlife, cars, and the rigid weather. While I have 2 cat condos and 2 heated beds for the stray cats that I help feed (all fixed), I can't help but think about the others who aren't so lucky.

We finally decided on a little boy who we thought we be a perfect fit for our family. I go tell this girl I want to start the process and right off the bat it was like I was on trial. She acted like I was incapable of taking care of him... and the reason why! Because I couldn't prove I give my dogs heartworm medicine at home. No matter what proof I tried showing I was met with attitude and before she'd even look at it say "no that won't work" she completely ruined the day for us. I was so excited to adopt another fur baby and I left there feeling like I was a bad pet mom (if you knew me you'd know my pets are EVERYTHING to me) we decided to go through a different place. And never had to show ANY proof of heart worm medication. I feel bad for the animals because they might be missing out on their forever home all because this woman is miserable. She needs to be fired! She acted like I was unfit but in reality she's unfit to be working there.

Do not trust Livingston County Animal Shelter with any animal's life. They killed a sweet,…read moreadoptable dog who was nothing but gentle and loving. I made the huge mistake of bringing a stray dog here. After not being claimed and he became adoptable, I fostered him and provided photos, notes, and a foster report card recommending the right kind of home for him. None of it was shared or considered in his adoption. His adopters returned him after a week with false claims of "aggression." I immediately tried to contact the shelter and offered to adopt him if his life was at risk. My calls and emails were ignored. Nearly a week later, they told me he was "safe with a rescue," which was a lie--they euthanized him three days after they claimed he was safe. Even the shelter admitted they never saw aggression. They chose to believe lies and killed an innocent dog simply because someone wanted their money back. On top of this, most of the staff are rude and unhelpful (with the exception of one woman), and despite always having multiple people behind the counter, they rarely answer the phone or respond to emails. This shelter does not act in the best interest of the animals. A dog's life was cut short because of their negligence, dishonesty, and misplaced priorities. I will never trust this shelter again, and I pray no other animal suffers the same fate.

Do not trust this facility. I applied on April 15 for a cat that had been in the facility for a…read moremonth. I was working to obtain my current pet records and to bring a family member to interview per their rules. People work and getting to the facility during the time they say they are open weekdays from 11 am to 5 pm is an issue for the employed. They called late in the afternoon on Thursday 4/16 to ask their battery of questions to determine suitability. At that point I didn't know if I could get my family member there before near their closing time of 5 pm on Friday 4/17. They mentioned there was another interested party. I agreed that if someone came to take the cat before I could get there late Friday 4/17 they should process him. They said they couldn't hold the animal for me so I was trying to be cooperative. However, we were able to be there today April 17 before their posted opening time of 11 am only to discover they had already opened and processed the animal to someone else before the posted opening time. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. Then they implied that I had miscommunicated my interest. If they can do that, please, beware of what they post on animal profiles to lure you in. Don't trust it is accurate and the animal is truly what they describe. If there was miscommunication, it was on their side of this interaction.

I noticed some of the handlers try to pull at your heart strings while meeting a new furry friend.

However, that sort of behavior could cause a bad cycle.

Shocked and appalled by my experience with Oakland County Animal Control & Pet Adoption Center…read more Went through the volunteer orientation process and was told at my first volunteer date, I be directed to a dog as well as walked through the setup and walking process. That did not happen. I was simply given a dog, showed to leash them, provided with no animal history or direction and was sent out for a walk. The shelter manager was immediately rude and nasty, saying I didn't follow process, despite no walkthrough and dog info/history. The dog I was with was sweet, but unbeknownst to me, they were other dog aggressive. On my walk, I avoided outside stimuli to the best of my ability and stayed away from other animals. Towards the end of the walk, I took the dog to the pool area. Another dog came near, barking. I wrapped the leash extra tight on around my hand. Both dogs were aggressive and I restrained the dog with my whole being. Despite pulling with all my might, the dog broke free and went after the other. Immediately, I went to re-restrain the dog. The shelter manager, who couldn't handle the dog either, screamed at, berated and blamed me for the incident. While I was on the ground, trying to restrain the dog, with all my might, doing all I could physically could to stop the incident. Eventually, other shelter employees were able to assist, but not without issue. I ended up with a two injuried fingers and physical and emotional trauma. As well as the other volunteer with injury/trauma - as well as issues with the dogs. To which, I tried to assist in concern, resolution and regard in anyway possible. The lack of direction and guidance, then excessive criticism and lack of support and concern, was unacceptable. It's incredibly disheartening and disabling. I've never experienced such lack of concern and straight up attack from an organization. Nor such complete disregard for my injury and trauma - invalidating my pain, swelling and experience. I had nothing but the most positive and helpful of intentions. I feel deeply for everyone and all animals involved, tried to/will do anything to help in the resolution - to which I implicitly expressed . Oakland County Animal Shelter was unprofessional, blame shifting - and there actions led injury, trauma and unnecessary pain and suffering. Currently seeking medical care for it effected my normal functioning. Especially of concern is the shelter manager, who was sexist, gaslighting and lacked any support and care for the volunteers, employees and animals. He is disrespectful, rude and completely insensitive to humans and animals. Such blatant disrespect and abuse of power is unacceptable - especially in a nonprofit setting. The way I was made to feel was inappropriate, discriminatory disrespectful, wrongfully accusatory as well as unethically critizing and unprofessional.

I recently adopted a dog from the local animal shelter and this vet was recommended to me from…read moresomeone at another clinic I had contacted to get information on spaying. I scheduled a required 2-week check-up that I was told was going to cost $45. A few days prior to her appointment, my dog began constantly scratching and licking. My dog had started scratching her belly to the point where it was bleeding so I called to see if I could bring her in early. I was told I could bring her in that day. I had all of her records with me from the shelter, and handed them to the person who came out to get my dog from the car (no owners were allowed in with their pets due to C19). When I spoke with the vet she kept asking questions that I didn't know the answers to (hence the reason I brought the records) and was told someone was entering the data in their system. The vet ended up prescribing an ointment; antibiotic; steroid and I was talked into buying a worm prevention medicine as well since I live 20 minutes from their location and didn't want to drive back just for that in the spring. The visit cost $199.28, which was a lot more than I thought I'd be paying just for ointment and exam, but I trusted the vet to know what was needed for the dog to get better. She sold me 15 ml of ointment for $28.73. I found it through a website for $12.99. FOR 30 ml. They charged me TWICE as much for HALF the amount. I was also charged about 3x more for the exact same antibiotic (cefpodoxime 100 mg/ 32 pills for $68.70 or $2.15 for 10x the amount of pills my dog needed) which would've been $.79 per pill through the same website. The dosage for the antibiotic was also too high for my dog's weight and noticed a marked change in her behavior by the 3rd day: she had started drooling, would shake, and seemed extremely anxious where she'd been very calm previously. The vet didn't include and directions or info, other than what was printed in the bottle; 1 1/2 pill per day And I realized that the instructions could either be read to administer 1/2 a pill per day, or 1.5 per day (which is what I'd been given my dog). I called to confirm and spoke with (2) different people who said that it was supposed to be 1.5 ~ when I looked it up, that dosage was for a dog 15 pounds heavier than mine. They also forget to put her folder in the bag of meds they gave me. I was shell shocked from paying 3x for a vet visit what I thought it would cost and didn't notice until they called and I had to drive back to pick up my dog's records. Later that day I received a call from them to confirm my dog's appointment for two days later that I made initially. I explained that I wasn't going to be keeping that appointment since they'd been able to see my dog that day. The woman who I had been working with (from my call that morning; taking my dog into the clinic; entering my dog's info into the system/forgetting to return the info; bringing my dog + prescriptions back to the car; calling to let me know the documents were still there; bring the documents out to me when I drove back) told me she didn't realize it was the same dog. It was no surprise when I tried to order the ointment online and the clinic wouldn't work with the store to get the prescription filled. They clearly don't care about the pet, it's all about the money.
