When I was in desperate need of finding a safe new home for a stray German Shepherd named Luna, they went above and beyond to assist me. Not only did they offer guidance and support, but they also helped me connect with other rescue organizations and resources to give Luna the best possible chance of finding a loving home. Throughout the process, they were compassionate, professional, and focused on what was best for the dog. It is clear that every decision they make is based on the safety and welfare of the animals in their care. Their kindness, dedication, and willingness to help during a difficult situation made a lasting impression on me, and I am truly grateful for everything they did. I highly recommend Girls Dog Rescue to anyone looking for a rescue organization that genuinely cares about dogs and the community they serve.

After recently losing my beloved Yorkie of 9 years, my husband and I decided to honor her memory by…read morerescuing rather than purchasing from a breeder. We came across an adorable Shih Tzu pair (a brother and sister) and submitted an application expressing interest in one of them. Within seconds of submitting, I received a call. The representative hadn't read my application at all. When she asked if I currently had a dog and I explained mine had just passed, there was zero acknowledgment; no condolences, nothing. She then informed me it was "unethical" to adopt just one puppy and that I'd need to take both. When I agreed to take both, she reversed course, saying the siblings would "fight" and I couldn't take them together. When I offered to adopt two unrelated dogs instead, the story changed again; apparently a doctor had just been approved for the dog I applied for, mid-conversation, and I was redirected to a one-year-old Yorkie before being abruptly dismissed. The inconsistencies were glaring, the policies shifted in real time, and the entire interaction was handled without a shred of compassion. I am a registered nurse and my husband works in the entertainment industry; we are experienced, attentive pet owners who gave our Yorkie an exceptional life. None of that was considered because my application was never actually reviewed. This experience is precisely why so many people turn to breeders and pet stores instead of rescues. When grieving applicants are met with dismissiveness, fabricated barriers, and contradictory excuses, it doesn't serve the animals; it leaves them in shelters longer. I hope the organization takes a hard look at how their team communicates with prospective adopters.

I left a voicemail simply asking if there was a chance he had been brought here. Penny returned my call, and from the very beginning, she was incredibly rude and dismissive. Instead of showing even a little compassion, I was told, "Midway City is a bit far for a cat to walk," "Next pet you have, make sure you microchip them," and "He was probably eaten by a coyote or hit by a car." None of those comments were helpful, appropriate, or necessary. I wasn't looking for a lecture or worst-case scenarios--I was simply asking if there was a possibility my dad's missing cat had been brought in. When people call about a missing pet, they're already going through an incredibly stressful and emotional time. A little kindness and empathy go a long way. Unfortunately, that was completely lacking in this interaction. Do better.

Got a…read morevoicemail from some grouchy lady telling me to send an application after I had followed up several days after hearing nothing back from submitting. In my call I specifically told them I was following up on my application and to text me when they received it. Waited another few days, heard nothing about if they had found my application, then the email I sent to follow up came back as undelivered and not accepting emails so I guess their email doesn't even work. So, complete waste of time. Disorganized. And with all the time I spent answering all their invasive questions which included my drivers license and personal information, you think they could at least, I don't know, answer the damn phone and follow simple directions without leaving a condescending @$$ voicemail on my phone. I feel really bad for the animals stuck with these people. Stay away and go with a rescue that isn't here to waste your time. Pay attention to the 1 star reviews. I didn't and here I am now making my own.
