The mission of Vintage Paws is ​"Saving senior dogs...four paws at a time by providing a sanctuary…read morefor displaced senior dogs to live out their lives with dignity surrounded by the loving care they deserve," and the team fulfills it beautifully. Jennifer and the volunteer board put it so much time to rescue, treat, care for, and find homes for these sweet senior dogs. I have volunteered a couple of times so far - walking/cuddling the dogs. There are loads of volunteer opportunities - delivering food to shut-ins with pets, driving the senior dogs to vet appointments, events, and much more. It is clear the folks here sincerely care for the wellbeing of these dogs. Kathy Wells is volunteer coordinator and she's fantastic - she's at the facility nearly every day! Great place to adopt or foster a doggo in the area. And if you're looking for a place to donate volunteer hours, I hope you consider Vintage Paws Sanctuary! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbQ6Czj_-H4&t=112s

I can absolutely buy most of the items brand new for the same price or less. I'm hesitant to write a review but I am unable to give them feedback on their Facebook page and feel they need to hear from typical shoppers that they are pricing out a great percentage of their potential patrons. I do know they have sales for specific color tags, but those are very few and far between. Even then, a 50 or 75% off price is what the item should have originally been marked for.

I like finding Americana plates and furnishings. Vintage jerseys. Games and puzzles. Hand-me-down fashion. I think Goodwill is more of a straight business op than Salvation Army, but hopefully some good comes of supporting them and I like the idea of reducing and reusing. I got some nice shorts. For some inexplicable reason my waistline has expanded slightly, but there was a good selection and I found several that were a comfy fit. Also some games. I almost got a set of those key ring style puzzles to solve. But then realized I don't have the patience and I come from an impatient family that might or might not enjoy them as gifts. I like the idea though. The book selection was okay. They actually have a store JUST of books on Clark Rd including oversized ones and pop-ups and more. Lots of these Goodwill stores tucked around down here. I may start doing flea markets too. I need lots and lots more stuff. And my LiL loves trying new toys and books and games, so getting them at a big discount and used is the way to go. Hopefully we can pass them on down.in the future. I almost forgot to mention the changing room doors lock when you close the door. So you can only get in with assistance. And if you want to walk with something or admire yourself strutting around in a mirror outside the changing room you will be exiled with a challenging return. In other words you have to get help to get back in it, and even if you try to get in right after someone else.. If that door closes it's the end. Banishment.

I was told he "was on a downward spiral" which was 100% not true. I had visited and donated to this facility before and I was told on the phone the morning of the surrender that they do not even euthanize for distemper which convinced me to trust them with this little sweet innocent adolescent. I gave them money to aid in his specific care and what a total joke of a place this is. DO NOT trust this "rescue" as that is not what these people are. DO NOT donate money to this cause as they are obviously not in this for the right reasons and I unfortunately found that out the hard way... at the sacrifice of a sweet little helpless baby. RIP Tyson. You didn't deserve this.
