When I got home, I looked at the receipt and saw not only was the Tote a dollar more, but a $3.60 tip was added after I said No. I like the Tote but I do not like being ripped off.

My parents adopted a 2-year-old French Bulldog (Destinee but renamed Della) from One of A Kind pet…read moreRescue on Thursday 04/30/26. When we arrived at the facility, we were smitten with her and after hearing that she was a puppy mill mama, my Mom and Dad were so excited to give her a life of love that she deserved. They had a meet and greet with Della and their current dog Gertie at 6pm and then proceeded with the adoption. Lucy, the person helping with the adoption, told us Della wasn't eating since surgery but assured us that this was because of her recent spay the day prior. Della had medical issues since the adoption. On Friday, my parents took Della to the vet for a check-up because of her continued lack of appetite and because Lucy recommended getting her established with their vet. By Saturday she needed to be seen again because her incision had become swollen, red, was seeping. Also, she appeared to be in heat as she had a little bit of blood coming from her vulva. At this point my parents called One of A Kind Pets as directed (as this was an issue from the surgery), however, there was no one available on Saturday so they took her back to their vet office for emergency treatment. Della was treated with a shot of antibiotics, medication to help with her appetite, pain medication, and probiotics. The vet said that Della's hormones may have been causing the small drips of bleeding that they were seeing. Sunday and Monday she seemed to be doing a bit better; she began to eat and started playing a little too; we were all so happy that she seemed to be feeling better. Then, the worst imaginable happened. On 05/06/26, I arrived at my parents' house to check in and while I was visiting Della began hemorrhaging from her vulva. We immediately took her to the vet who had to do emergency surgery (we got her there within 10 minutes). The vet there was willing and my parents were willing to do whatever to save her life. The vet even had a vet tech go to her house to get her own dog to give Della a blood transfusion in attempt to save her life. However, upon opening her up, the vet told my mother "I have never seen anything like it in 20yrs." The damage was irreparable and she recommended that she be put to sleep. The vet said that Della had developed an extremely large abscess that was likely a result of her being spayed when she was actively in heat. She said that spaying a dog when it is in heat is not indicated, as it is a common occurrence for an abscess to develop. I am horrified that a rescue clinic that is in the market of "saving animals" would be doing surgeries on dogs when contraindicated. Not only did poor Della suffer as a result of a poor clinical/medical decision but my 75-year-old parents and I have too. Della deserved a happy life after the one she started with. And then for her to suffer in this way as a result of the clinic's poor decision is truly inhumane. This was such a terrible experience that I'm not certain I will ever have the heart to adopt an animal again from a shelter. And I am a true animal lover. I have four dogs and a cat of my own. But, this experience, it's one I won't ever forget. It was so traumatizing to see Della hemorrhage and feel so helpless in that moment because I couldn't help her. I would rather go to a breeder than back to a shelter that is "adopting" dogs out that are sick and have been given botched "vet services" that ultimately will kill them. My parents did their very best. Della wasn't left alone since she was adopted, they loved on her, they got her vet care, and it still wasn't enough because of the lack of care/consideration she received at One of a Kind Pet. I'm devastated to even think about all the dogs and cats currently at your facility now. I hope and pray that none of them suffer in this way, but I am fearful that they will. I would like to see whomever made the decision spay Della when it was contraindicated no longer doing procedures at your clinic. I'd like to see my parents compensated for the money spent on Della's adoption and care due to the clinic's poor clinical decision-making skills and the trauma that they've endured losing their pet in this way. Someone needs to be held accountable and I am absolutely disgusted that no one from One of A Kind Pet has yet to reach out to my parents about the situation. We have emailed and messaged the executive director (as directed by volunteers) and made several phone calls with no response. I am completely heartbroken for Della, Gertie (who has been looking for her), and my poor 75-year-old parents who were trying to help a pet in need get a life she deserved and now grieving her death.

Truth be told, I wish I had more detailed information about Akron Makerspace, because the space here is truly awesome. I found out about it at Ingenuity Fest 2017, where I learned that they offer both classes and open houses for "makers" or wannabe makers. I sort of stored it in the back of my mind, and decided to try it out around my boyfriend's birthday. I signed us up for a CNC cutting class for about $50/person. If you aren't familiar with CNC cutting, it's basically a very high level computer program that allows you to engrave wood or metal in a very detailed fashion (sorry if there are any nerds out there that are screaming at the computer saying "NO, NO, it's so much more than that!). Truthfully, CNC is much more than that, but Akron Makerspace seeks to condense what would normally be a 6 week course into a few hours so you can go home with something you made. Pretty awesome huh? Lest you be deterred thinking, computer programming? That doesn't sound like me... They have a TON of other stuff here! I'd tell you to check out their website, but really, that wouldn't even tell you all the stuff they have here. The best way is to just drop in and see what it's all about. They do offer open houses weekly where folks can just drop in to check it out, or get help from the expert makers on a project they are working on. Some examples are: welding, vinyl cutting, jewelry and stamp making, robotics, wood carving... the list goes on and on. Basically, if there's something you want to make and you just aren't sure where to start, THIS is the place. They do offer memberships for $35/month which can get you open access to the space (you get a fancy key and everything) and access to all their equipment, as well as a storage space for your projects. I do think the classes are a fun way to get your foot in the door, as they have several different ones (there's a calendar on their website). I'm told that they are planning on collaborating with some local restaurants to do some date night offerings, which I think would be awesome. All in all, this place is definitely worth a visit, and creative people will love how much they have to offer!
