They scanned us and the pup very thoroughly to ensure a good match and gave us time to make sure we both matched. They are saving lives, and we were so happy to find them and add our pup to our family.

They require $350 of training classes up front in addition to these fees and vet expenses. The dental info is not forth coming and could become a large liability since they reserve the right to remove the dog at their discretion for the life of the pet. They, also, will guarantee heart worm status. In addition, they do not hold a non-profit status. That says a great deal right there. One more insight, at the end of one of their handout about nutrition, they accuse vets for taking money for food recommendations. This is far from the truth, vets receive a discount from most pet food companies for personal pets, only.

YAY! I get to finally write a review on 4P4L!!…read more We found 4P4L due to a Petfinder search back in 2021. The dog we initially adopted wasn't good with our cats even though he was fine in his foster home with the resident cat. 4P4L understood and we were able to return him. They had asked me to write an updated bio for him so that potential adopters would get a better understanding of his demeanor. He was such a sweet dog but my cats weren't his thing, which wasn't his fault in the slightest. I wrote the bio and he got adopted. I was then asked to volunteer and become a foster, so we started fostering. A 3 day sleepover for a foster pup is how we started and since 2021, we have fostered over 100 dogs and volunteer at adoption events. While it is so tempting to adopt all our fosters, we know we're just helping them adjust to home life. There have been a few that we invoked the 6 month rule: if we have the pup for 6 months, we would adopt him/her because at 6 months, you're a part of our pack. Last month, there was a need to foster these 2 rottie pups because it was time for them to separate from their momma and momma needed a break. Rotties are one of our preferred breeds! Well, we invoked the 6 DAY rule knowing that the pups would be adopted within the week. So that's it! That's how we got our Saoirse! Even if you cannot adopt, please think about volunteering with us or becoming a foster! A little weekend break from the kennel is what all the dogs need and you may just invoke your own 6 day rule!!

First - getting a dog should never be an impulse decision. However, sometimes you just have to go…read morewith your gut, and my gut told me getting a dog from My Fairy Dawg Mother was the right decision. This is a long one, so stick with me here.... I happened to be on Facebook one afternoon after having a suddenly clear schedule, and boom! This ADORABLE little face popped up in my feed. I felt like the Grinch, my heart swelling up to three times its normal size. I wanted, no, NEEDED this puppy. I don't know what I was thinking. I had a senior cat, 2 other dogs, was recovering from a severe injury, and was also a full time graduate student in Boulder. Yeah. But that FACE. It spoke to me. After discussing it with my husband, we decided it would be worth making the effort to add to our family. We contacted MFDM, and put in our application. Sadly, the little face we fell in love with went to a family that same day. We were CRUSHED. Lets recap: Thursday - no interest in getting a new dog. Friday - fall in love with dog. Saturday - learn dog is not available. Be sad. Sad sad sad. Sunday morning, we were still sad....and then my phone rang. It was the Fairy Dawg Mother herself!!! She was calling to let me know that the little face I fell in love with was being returned to his foster home, because he wasn't a fit for the family that wanted him originally. My husband and I were OVERJOYED. This wasn't a simple "ok, lets go see him" - we KNEW he was meant to be ours. We drove to the foster's home that afternoon, and welcomed our new handsome boy into our lives. Now - it's easy enough to say that it's a great story to meet the dog we love. But even better, here is what made it worth adopting from MFDM: 1. The focus is on finding the RIGHT home for the dog. When my boy's potential parents decided he wasn't the right fit, MFDM took him back ASAP. 2. Foster care, not shelter care. The dogs brought under the MFDM umbrella are immediately cared for in homes, given training, and integration into a pack. This is good, because that means they don't suffer any more. Many of the dogs are rescued from high stress/high kill shelters. It's a lot of work to go from that environment to a house/family setting. 3. The rescue is small and personalized. No large corporate style structure here, where checkboxes and numbers are the primary motivation. They are all about the dogs. 4. Small, but professional. Each dog is microchipped, vaccinated, and spayed/neutered, and all pet parents are advised about responsible pet ownership. When you adopt from MFDM, you become a part of their family, whether you want to or not! They are here for the dogs, first and foremost. Isn't that the kind of people you want in your, and your pets, corner? I sure do. Give them a call today, and you just might find your new best friend.

My experience with 2 Blondes All Breed Rescue was incredibly frustrating and disappointing…read more The lack of communication was unacceptable. There is no phone number to contact--only email--and once questions became inconvenient, communication seemed to stop altogether. We sent multiple follow-up emails seeking clarification and never received a response. Families who are genuinely trying to provide loving homes for rescue dogs deserve better than being ignored. My family was interested in adopting a dog that we were more than qualified to care for. We are experienced dog owners, have a secure fenced yard, provide an active lifestyle, and have a strong support system of family dogs that our pets interact with regularly. Despite this, we were told we were not a suitable match because the dog needed another dog in the home to "teach him how to dog." That explanation felt arbitrary and more like an excuse than a legitimate assessment of our ability to provide a safe, loving, and enriching home. What was most disappointing was the complete lack of professionalism afterward. Rather than engaging in a conversation, answering questions, or explaining their decision further, they simply stopped responding. After this experience, I began researching the organization further and was surprised to find numerous negative reviews from others describing similar concerns regarding communication, transparency, and the adoption process. Reading those reviews made me realize that our experience may not have been an isolated incident. Rescue organizations have an important mission, and I sincerely hope every dog in their care finds a loving home. However, based on our experience, this rescue came across as disorganized, dismissive, and unwilling to communicate with potential adopters. We walked away feeling that qualified families were being turned away for arbitrary reasons while genuine questions were ignored. Potential adopters should do their own research before investing their time and emotions into this organization. I only wish the level of care shown to applicants matched the level of care these dogs deserve.

I was very excited to look for a new companion and stumbled across 2 Blonds All Breed Rescue. From my initial impression, this rescue looked like a place that seemed established and excited about finding animals good homes. However, I have never had an experience where there is radio silence. I sent an initial email asking about the availability of a potential pup that was never acknowledged (after submitting an application I saw that they don't give any status updates). I spent a considerable amount of time completing a lengthy application, which while I appreciated, never receiving an update or even acknowledgement that it is being reviewed or not approved was extremely disappointing. I've had the privilege of adopting multiple companions in my life and this is the first time I've felt disregarded. After my experience, I decided to do some background research and discovered that my experience is not unique and there are numerous forums, reviews, and threads where others disclosed similar experiences. If anything, I hope that 2 Blonds will consider better communication practices to connect potential companions to loving homes. There are obviously many people willing to work with them, but its discouraging when it seems that the agency is unwilling or unable to do the same. I wish I was a one-off case, but from the reviews it seems that this is a common experience.

Publicly sharing my response to a "How was your adoption experience" survey from LCHS:…read more First let me say that we are thrilled to have adopted a dog, and happy that it was done via the LCHS. But this question is asking about the experience, and to be honest it wasn't great. I have a Loveland address, but it's roughly an hour to reach your facilities. With nobody answering the phone or emails, there was no way for me to put a hold on the dog we wanted, so we had to just take a chance and drive over. With a wait time - once somebody finally came to the door - of over an hour, that means we'd invested at least 3 hours in what we expected to be a waste of time. And I would add that this was not our first visit to LCHS. A previous visit had been completely for nothing. If you think of each aspect of the process as either having a Deterring effect or an Encouraging one, there's too much Deterrent here. I know COVID will be used as an excuse, but that's exactly what it is. People can find a way to get important things done. I also think the price tag is awfully steep, in comparison to equivalent facilities elsewhere. We adopted a puppy for $300 in Austin last year. Why is LCHS double? Deterrent! On a positive note, a lengthy paperwork application would have been an additional Deterrent, and I commend you for not having one; I strongly suggest that you keep it this way if the primary goal is to help put homeless animals into the homes of people who want them.
