In the end she wasn't eating and drinking so we brought her to the SPCA for end of life services. They asked for vet records. I had them sent over immediately. The nurse read the paperwork and said it was only an "inflamed esophagus " it's treatable and we don't feel comfortable euthanizing her. The dog could barely lift her head. I said she hasn't eaten and now she won't drink. She won't take any meds. She wouldn't even eat doggie ice cream anymore. The nurse shrugged her shoulders and said we could just leave her there or take her to another clinic. By 11 pm she was dead at home. I do not recommend the SPCA. The nurse never paid the dog an ounce of attention. She read the vet report and didn't ask any further questions. When we tried to volunteer information, she just kept shrugging her shoulders.

I want to express my deepest gratitude to the entire team at Pennsauken Animal Hospital for the…read morecompassionate care and support you provided during one of the most difficult decisions of my life. I had my dog Kiki since she was a tiny puppy. She was fiercely protective of me, loyal, and incredibly kind in so many ways -- truly one of the best dogs I've ever had. Her aggression started around age 3 and grew over time, especially when she felt jealous. Despite years of trying to manage her behavior, rearranging our home, and attempting to find her a suitable adoptive home, nothing worked. When she nearly bit my infant, I knew I had to prioritize the safety of my wife and two young children. The decision to euthanize Kiki on March 8th was heartbreaking and has left me feeling very low ever since. Your team -- the veterinarian, vet techs, and all the staff -- could not have been more kind and understanding. You sat down with me, listened carefully, and helped me thoughtfully assess the situation and everyone's quality of life. Your empathy during such a painful time meant more than I can say. Today, I opened my mailbox and found the most touching handwritten letter from your hospital, along with Kiki's snout print and paw print. I completely broke down crying with my wife. That small but incredibly meaningful gesture helped release emotions I had been holding in for weeks and is truly helping me through the grieving process. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your professionalism, compassion, and for remembering Kiki so thoughtfully. You are the best veterinary team I could have asked for during this time. I will never forget your kindness. Sincerely, Mark Adsuara

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.

Thank you Stephanie!…read more My anxiety-ridden rescue, Honey, was spending time away from home for the first time without me. I wanted to bring her to a boarder that would not put her in a crate and forget about her all 5 days. Honey has the tendency to hide and resist walks.

It's hard to review this business without talking about the personality of Stephanie, the owner -…read morethat's what makes it special. She's one of these rare people in Philadelphia who has so much idealism about the environment and furry creatures. She has two dogs herself, a French bulldog and this super adorable Pug that I want to sneak home with me. Her philosophy is very much connected to animal psychology, so she doesn't really think "Oh, time to walk the dog." Rather she spends time with the dogs and gives them whatever they need in the moment. She does some training although I don't know the specifics of that. She likes to give feedback to owners about what the dog is doing, kind of like a nanny would do with a child. I have learned a lot of things from her, but to be honest, she sometimes says things that are over my head. She has boarding opportunities although they need to be able to get on with her own dogs. She is ridiculously affordable and I know for a fact that she'll negotiate with people. At the very least, I suggest you call her and bring your dog over to meet her. I think that would be the best way to see if there's a fit. I almost can guarantee that your dog will love her. And you will too.

Before it was my turn, I overheard a conversation between two people. There was a man in front of…read moreme who also bought fish. The staff member even told him that the fish might get eaten, but still sold it to him anyway. Yet when it came to my turn, things were completely different! I asked if there were still angelfish in the tank, and she didn't even bother to look and just said there weren't any. I told her I could see one in there, and only then did she check. After that, she started questioning me: "How many gallons is your tank?" I answered 44 gallons, and she smirked, saying she had never heard of a 44-gallon tank! Then she asked how many fish I had, and when I said 5 angelfish, she flatly refused to sell me the fish. Her attitude was extremely poor. It seemed clear that she noticed I wasn't a native speaker, since my English isn't perfect, and that made her treat me even worse. Meanwhile, I have owned and cared for many fish with multiple tanks at home. My fish are always healthy and well taken care of. Being treated as if I was irresponsible felt completely unfair and very disrespectful. This experience only reinforces why I will support local fish stores instead -- where staff are knowledgeable, respectful, and truly care about the animals. I will never buy fish here again.

I should've know something was wrong when I get a pick up call after 1 hr. My dog was still wet and not fully dry. It's 34 degrees outside. I can empathize with groomer saying I'm sorry you're not happy, but got nothing from this person. When I returned after paying my dog was on another groomer's table. That groomer was blowing drying him. Prior to leaving to pay I asked them not to touch him. So why did the other groomer have on the table blow drying him. So they can't even follow simple instructions like "please don't touch my dog." Look at my poor dog's face. He knows he got a crappy groomer. The worse grooming my baby has ever had. Beware!
