    Lap of Love

    Losing my dog was so traumatic, traumatizing to me to even image and then that day came. I called…read moreLap of love and I cannot express the kindness and calm and the anxiety for them to come I mean this is it. I was met with the kindest Vet, and I mean if your a dog owner you know... she knew. I was greeted with such kindness ( I am writing this in tears ) I was told what would happen when and gave us a couple last moments privately. I really could not have sent my lil lady Olive out any way better. I cannot recommend this anymore. It really is worth it. Olive didn't feel a thing at all and we held her. It was beautiful. UGH best EvEr. I love animals so much and this was the most honest honorable way. I one thousand recommend. * this review took me months to write because it did Olive broke my heart. * get the paw print.

    I am going to keep this review simple and split it into two parts: the euthanasia process, and the…read morecremation process. My experiences were very different for each. EUTHANASIA (500 stars, A+): Moriah Hughson was wonderful on the phone during my intake call to Lap of Love. Her gentle voice and compassion for me and my dog was palpable. Dr. Karyl Hurley was wonderful when she came to my residence - she made my dog's last moments on this planet comfortable and the process went very quickly. Dr. Karyl wrapped my baby up in so many beautiful, fluffy blankets for her final departure from the house . I was honestly very concerned about the prospect of carrying my dog's dead body out of my house for the final time, but Dr. Hurley treated her body with the utmost respect and care and it was not nearly as traumatic as I anticipated. If you have the means, Lap of Love is the most peaceful and dignified way for your beloved family member to transition. Thank you, Dr. Karyl for gently escorting my dogter to the next dimension. CREMATION (2 stars): Now for the negative: I opted to have my dog's ashes sent directly to my house since my primary vet is a mobile vet and didn't have an "office" for the cremains to be sent to. I received an email on Feb, 8th from Leigh Skarzynski, the "Crematory Relationship Administrator" (this was two days after my dog was euthanized) saying it can take 10-14 days to receive the cremains back. Fast forward to 5 days after my dog passed - UPS shows up at my house unannounced on a Saturday (Feb 10) with a package that required a signature. I was asleep in my bed, depressed, and didn't feel like answering the door. I figured it was a condolence gift from someone and they would leave the package on my porch. When I later realized something was being delivered that required a signature I simply figured I would sign the authorization slip to "leave it" and then get it on Monday. On Monday (the 12th) I just so happened to be home when the UPS man came, and as he walked up to my stoop I could see "PET CREMAINS" in big print on the box in his hand. I immediately broke down in tears. I started crying out, "I didn't know, I didn't know she was coming!" How did no one tell me she was coming on Saturday? She sat on a truck for two days, and I could have had her sooner! The guilt was eating me up. I reached out to Leigh Skarzynski immediately to tell her that my pet's remains showed up completely unannounced and outside the anticipated delivery window, and she responded that an email had gone out Friday (Feb. 9th) at 6:30 pm. I scoured my email (and I even have UPS Delivery Manager) and wrote back that absolutely no notice was sent. She suggested it went to spam. FAST FORWARD to February 13th - 5 days after the first attempt to delivery my pet's ashes and 1 day after already having possession of them - and I get an email from UPS saying that the cremains would be delivered on February 14th. Are you f'ing kidding me?????? My dead dog (assuming there was no mix-up...) is back in my possession and now I am getting emails about her cremains arriving? I forwarded this message to Leigh, again, as proof that I DID NOT RECEIVE A NOTICE THAT MY PET'S ASHES WERE ON THE WAY, and that email has gone un-answered, sent more than 24-hours ago now. I firmly believe that the crematory partner should email Lap of Love or the pet parent directly when they ship the cremains. I do not know how this utter lack of communication happened with such a sensitive situation, but it definitely pissed me off and left a sour taste in my mouth. I will say that the cremains themselves were packed with care and I am happy to have her home (again, assuming it's really her...the delivery drama planted a seed of doubt) but I really could have done without the delivery trauma and poor communication from LoL and their crematory partner, Abbey Glen.

    MatchDog Rescue has given me and my bf our first love, Hewitt…read more Before attending the event in Atco, we were given a phone call with a proper run down on how the event would work so we were not confused when we got there. They are extremely communicative, and the events are usually held on Saturdays, but the transport that was bringing the dogs in had troubles and the event ultimately had to be moved to Sunday. I had my phone call at about 11:15 and about 1 PM hours later I was informed about the date change. It is not a typical adoption shelter that I have been to in the past. At the event, there is a ticket system, as in, the earlier you get there the earlier you will be called. While you wait you mingle with the volunteers and the dogs. You get a vibe on which dog feels like the best fit for you. However, be mindful that the crew with MatchDog Rescue does their due diligence and wants the best for EVERY SINGLE DOG. We went to the event with a very specific dog in mind. One that was on the medium/large end. However, the staff that reviewed our application and lifestyle, let us know that the dog might not be the best fit for us in terms of training and size of our home. While it was disappointing to hear, we knew at heart we wanted what was best for the dog and us. As mentioned before there is a mingling period while waiting to be called on by staff. During this period you can meet dogs of all ages, sizes, and all types OUTSIDE of dog cages. We had met several different dogs during this period, just to name a few that I can remember, Nevada, Hewitt, Cassidy, Dukie, and Garret. We bonded with several dogs early on, but with our hearts set on a specific dog, we just enjoyed their presence. However, after being informed that the dog we had our hearts set on was not a good fit for us, we knew which of the many dogs we met during the mingling period we wanted to go on a walk with. We asked if Hewitt was a good fit for us, confirmed he was, took him on a little stroll around the lot, and knew that our hearts were set on him. We went through the process of adopting him and each volunteer we worked with, remembered Hewitt and always told us how he was such a great dog and a cute little snippet or fun fact about Hewitt. There was never a doubt in my mind that Hewitt was not loved under their care. On our way out with Hewitt, the last volunteer that we worked with walked us to our car, ensuring that Hewitt was buckled in and safe and had their very loving and sad goodbyes with each other. Hewitt has been with us for about a week. We are a very calm, but active couple and Hewitt matches exactly that for us. When we are relaxing, he is relaxing. When we are running, Hewitt is right there running with us. It is not something that I considered when I was looking into adopting a dog, but I am extremely grateful the staff at MDR let us know before adopting a dog. If ever in the future I am looking for a second dog, there is no doubt in my mind that MDR will be the first adoption agency I look into.

    Match Dog Rescue is an incredibly organized, compassionate, thoughtful, and well-run organization…read more They go to great lengths to vet potential adopters and match dogs with the right "Furever" family. Their volunteers coordinate with partner rescues in areas with an abundance of overcrowded, high-kill shelters. They travel to these areas, rescue and transport the pooches to New Jersey, where dedicated fosters await their arrival. The fosters nurture, care for and partner with veterinary professionals to ensure that the rescued pups are primed to thrive in their new "Furever" homes. We highly recommend Match Dog and are eternally grateful to them for bringing our beloved Jessy "home" to us. - Steve and Anna C.

I used to live on a farm and Jamie would live at the farm while we were away. Now that we've downsized, my dogs usually stay at Training Aces but Jamie still feeds the birds and waters my plants. My dogs LOVE going to Training Aces! They run right over to the gate, tails wagging. Last year, I had to be away for a month. I was very upset thinking about leaving my guys for that long. I shouldn't have worried! Being with Jamie is like being at home for my pups. They laze on the sofa, sleep in Jamie's bed, and have the run of the spacious fenced-in yard. They have other dogs to play with and they all get along. Jamie even sent regular updates and photos. Trust Jamie and Training Aces to give your pet the excellent care they deserve!

    We have a 2 year old Mastiff who has had all of her basic obedience training. She's a sweet girl…read morewho gets along with everybody, people and dogs alike. Pictures of her playing with a Chi Chua Chua are too cute. But, there were two behavior problems we couldn't fix on our own. The first is that she could go from zero to ten in excitement level seemingly in a split second. When someone came to the door, this docile sleepy girl would bark and run out of control full speed from one end of the house to the other. A 130 pound dog running out of control is a recipe for disaster for grandkids and adults and houses alike. The second problem was though she responded very well to "come" when in the house, it was a different story when off leash at the dog park. We'd say "come" and she would look over her shoulder as she continued on her own merry way. Jamie came to both our home and to our dog park so that he could observe my wife's and my own behavior as well as observe first hand the behavior of our dog. He spent time watching and asking questions. He gave us homework to do between visits. And he thoroughly explained why he gave us the assignments he did so that we would understand why we were doing what we were doing. In addition to home visits, we at one point boarded our dog with Jamie for three days and Jamie used that time to continue and reinforce the training. Now we have the dog that we never in our wildest dreams thought we'd have. When the grand kids are here, (3 yrs & 6 yrs.) she can usually be found lying down maybe 7 or 8 feet away. When their toys are all over the floor, she ignores them. When they're eating at their own kid sized picnic table (right about chin level for the dog) she goes no where near them. And when they pet her, she just stands there and wags her tail. Her biggest fault with them now is to give an unexpected and uninvited sloppy kiss! When the doorbell rings, I simply have to say "hey," and she quiets right down. When guests enter the home she's not permitted to run up and greet them. Only after everyone is in and settled do I let her know that she can now greet them calmly. Now at the dog park, life is good. When I say "come" she stops whatever she's doing and comes. Even if she's in the midst of playing with one of her dog friends, she comes. To avoid any escalation, I've called her away from an unfriendly and snarling dogs, and she responds instantly to my command to "come". Sometimes she's off and sniffing something and then discovers that we're now maybe 50 yards ahead of her and she comes a running! And we're now at the point that there are no treats or rewards for obeying, other than a quick pet and a "good girl!" Jamie gave us the dog we dreamed about but never really thought we would have. Jamie is knowledgeable, patient, insightful, very skillful, and caring. He has certainly found his niche as a dog trainer. We would recommend Jamie and Training Aces, NJ without reservation.
