Shelters are always a difficult place with so many animals and so little space, but the staff genuinely seemed to care. Kennels were clean, dogs had blankets and toys. We brought our other dog in for a meet and greet which was recommended by the staff. Also at their suggestion, we fostered prior to adoption to make sure all went well at home. This gave us, our dog and the dog we eventually adopted time to get to know each other and rule out any issues.

Vicente helped us that day and was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and helpful. He took the time to answer all of our questions and provided detailed information which made us feel confident in our decision. We returned on Tuesday to complete the adoption, and Sachie made the process smooth and enjoyable. She was kind, friendly, and made sure everything went seamlessly. The entire adoption process was organized, efficient, and stress free. We are so grateful and thankful to everyone who cared for our dog before she came home with us.

I am writing this on my dog's 17th birthday. We got her 12 years ago from SBPR…read more In that time, my mother also adopted a dog from this organization, and my husband and I adopted a second dog from them last year. To say the least, we love and fully support this organization as it has brought THREE wonderful dogs into our lives. Every person we have talked to at SBPR is friendly, knowledgeable, and has the best interest of the animals at heart. Our first dog was our very first, but we put in the time and research to demonstrate that we were ready for a pet. Though we were newbies and fully disclosed this, SBPR saw that she was a good fit for us as a "first dog," and we have been smitten with her ever since. She is even "bosom buddies" with my mom's dog from SBPR (who is 14 going on 15). With our recent second dog, also from SBPR, we were unsure how our current dog and new dog would get along, both being older and set in their ways. The foster mom allowed us to have a meet-and-greet, and even a trial weekend to see how they would live together. She saw that we were committed to what was best for both dogs, and the potential for a loving home with another SBPR "alum". We are so happy it was a successful transition. These dogs have brought so much love and light into our lives. SBPR cares about dogs and finding loving forever homes, and we are so lucky no-kill orgs like this one exist in our area. We treat our dogs like family, and this organization is to credit for these 3 little beings in our life. Eternally grateful to them for the great work that they do!

So embrace the dog and show compassion for all involved. Adopting doesn't mean free dog for your pleasure. It's welcoming a living creature into your life. Like SBPR, DO YOUR BEST WITH WHAT YOU HAVE. MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD.

That went well but we were ready to for the next step of getting closer to other dogs in a controlled way. This is when I found out about Our Pack's Sunday drop in dog training. I was much more comfortable with this approach over a dog training class because I felt we could participate as much or as little as we were able. So the first time, we mostly observed from a comfortable distance. The second time we selectively participated and, this last time, we were fully engaged in the class. So far, this has been the perfect next step for us and I plan to continue going on a regular basis. Thank you for making this available!
