I adopted a 4 month old GSD, named Tank fka Jay; from Saving Paws Rescue. His mom Chevron was…read moredumped at a gas station in CA. (Hence her name, Chevron) They took her in pregnant, as well as other male with her. They are absolutely, hands down, the best! They take time to get to know the adopters, make sure they are a good fit. As well as, tour your the home and check for safety concerns. Most people don't know what they are getting into with a German Shepherd, so they make sure you understand. Tank ate some drywall at the rescue the night before we took him home. They said if we had any issues let them know. He ended up getting gastritis and was vomiting and had diarrhea. They told us go to urgent care & were there the whole way supporting us. They even took care of the $1300 urgent care bill, knowing he was being a German shepherd puppy and chew stuff. God bless this rescue & all the people that help to make it successful! When GSD's need help, they are there!

After a sudden and tragic loss of our families Siamese Kitten, we were ready to add another kitty…read moreto our home. We were on the hunt for another Siamese cat, but they are not the easiest breed to come by. I found an ad on pet-finder that led me straight to Home Fur Good. I called in as soon as they opened to see if the beautiful kitten was still available and although I was hoping to meet him that same day, they were not able to accommodate me until the next morning- which was fine by me. When we arrived, we were greeted by the friendly staff, got to take a look around the rescue and see some of their other pets. Everyone was clearly passionate about what they do, which was a great sight to see. The animals appeared to be well taken care of. We fell in love with the kitten we came down to meet and decided to adopt him! The process was quick and easy.& their adoption fee was reasonable as it included all shots, neuter and microchip service- all of which were already taken care of! We are so in love with our new baby and want to say THANKS AGAIN to home fur good for matching us with the perfect kitty

I had such a wonderful experience attending the adoption event today, July 18th. It was…read moreincredibly well organized, and there were so many adorable puppies looking for loving foster and forever homes. You could tell how much thought and care went into making the event a success. I had the pleasure of meeting the Founder and Director, Kathy Hamel, and we had such a wonderful conversation. Her passion and dedication to helping these animals was truly inspiring. I also had the opportunity to meet several of the volunteers, and every single person was welcoming, kind, and clearly committed to the organization's mission. It was heartwarming to see so many people coming together to give these dogs a second chance. I left feeling inspired and excited, and I can't wait to work alongside this amazing team in the future. Today's adoption event was busy, with many dogs and potential adopters in attendance. What I witnessed was many volunteers working hard to ensure every animal was handled safely and compassionately, (and some volunteers were holding them in their arms walking thru the crowd so potential adopters could interact with them). Dogs can occasionally become overstimulated in unfamiliar environments and as the dogs were playing in their playpen and getting a little rowdy, the volunteers intervened immediately to ensure that they were all safe. This should never be interpreted as a lack of care. Please let us remember that these are people who VOLUNTEER their time to rescue and save these fur babies. I am attaching pictures that were taken at the actual event today and I have permission to post them in this review. Thank you Arizona Shihtzu and Small Dog Rescue for everything you do for these deserving animals.

My wife and I had wanted a dog for a long time and we were finally in the right place in our lives…read moreto get one. We had seen the ALGBR website and were enamored with a few of the dogs they had listed. They also list "events" on their website at a few Petsmart locations on different weekends of the month. Since we were looking on the 3rd Saturday, we went to the Petsmart on McKellips and Power to hopefully meet some of the dogs. We drove from central Phoenix all the way out to Mesa. . .but apparently they don't bring any of their rescues to these "events". They did have a handy binder containing printouts of all of the listings we had seen online. Ok. . . Since we were there, we filled out an application and gave it to one of the volunteers, along with the $15 app fee, and a copy of our current lease showing that dogs are allowed and we've paid all associated pet fees, and the volunteers assured us we'd be contacted in 24-48 hours. By the way, the adoption application is way more intense than any college admissions application I've ever filled out. "If your new Rescue needed an emergency operation, which might cost you $1,000 to $1,500 would you do it, if your Veterinarian said it was necessary? " Does anyone ever write in "It depends on how much it costs to euthanize. . ."??? Seriously. Anyway, 48 hours later and no call, I decided to give a call to the # listed on the website, and got a messaging system on which I left my information. I got a call back a few hours later, and the nice woman told me that if I gave my application to a volunteer, they were probably just going to mail it in for us, so just fill out another application online and email it to them. Great - the trip out to Mesa was officially a complete and utter waste of time. 24- 48 hours after emailing the electronic application and still no phone call. So I called them up again and the same woman answered, thanked me for the application, told me that they did eventually get the one I filled out by hand, and that someone would be contacting me shortly to set up a home visit. So the wife and I decided instead to go to the AZ Humane Society Campus for Compassion where we got a lovely puppy that we adore, totally hassle free. 2 stars to ALGBR only because they are doing a wonderful and noble charity by rescuing dogs. But it's obvious that these volunteers are not interested in giving up their "adoptable" dogs and would rather be lifetime fosters to their rescues. UPDATE - it's 2.5 years later and ALGBR still hasn't called me about my application ;-) Wish I could get that $15 back.

We were very satisfied and pleased with the professional nature and compassion of the organization. They basically rescue Labrador Retrievers and other large dogs from owners around the state who no longer can keep them (for various reasons). The rescue org. takes the dogs in and puts them in loving foster homes until the dogs can be adopted. The process was amazingly straight forward to adopt a dog. You look at the bios of adoptable dogs on their website, download an application on-line, schedule a home-interview with one of their reps. They then come to the house at your convenience and look at the application...they check to check to make sure you're not a crazy person and will actually care for the dog. :) The next step is finding a dog that you love from the website. They have puppies all the way to older adult dogs. Also, the organization knows many of the dogs histories, since many of them aren't strays. So, you know from their bios what the dogs temperament is right off the bat. When you find a dog you like from the website, the foster parent drives the dog to your house. You then see how well the dog gets along with your other dogs or kids, if you have them and if you want the dog, you fill out a little paperwork, pay the adoption fee and have a wonderful new addition to your home. If you find the dog doesn't fit your needs, more foster dogs will come to your house until you find one that fits. We are so pleased with our dog and can't imagine life without him!!
