    Linda Blair Foundation - I hope Patrick went to a good home. My heart hurts

    Linda Blair Foundation

    I wish there was an option to give 0 stars. This foundation is awful. I've been trying to adopt a…read moredog since November 2023 and today I found out he was adopted out to someone else. For MONTHS I've sent emails, I've called, I've gone up and volunteered to care for the dogs, and Linda did not give me the time of day to set up an appointment for adoption. She put me through the wringer over and over again, ignoring my calls and texts. I had my heart set on this dog and I'm beyond pissed. How this other person was able to adopt blows my mind. Linda Blair does not deserve to run this business. Someone please rescue these dogs from this foundation!

    I commend her dedication but when I was there she simply had too many dogs to provide proper care…read morefor. Numerous dogs were kept in crates in the garage poorly lit, reeking of urine and poorly socialized and housed. It was noon and some were in their crates and had not been taken out for a bathroom break. I overheard Linda chastise employees for this. However these workers were working their hearts out. Too many dogs in too small an area, some turning on the others and drawing blood from a companion in one instance in my presence. A friend and I volunteered our services for a day, a policy encouraged of our employer. We've volunteered for several rescues in Acton so it's not our first rodeo. We arranged well in advance and offered to do the drudge work that most volunteers aren't interested in doing ie painting, debris cleanup, brush removal, etc. We feel this to be a more valuable benefit to rescues with our limited time. We pulled weeds, raked, cleared debris, filled a large dumpster, etc. The place was shockingly messy and overcrowded compared to other rescues we've volunteered for. We then painted a newly built grooming shed. Linda chose the colors and provided the supplies. We're nearly done and she then prevaricates as to the color she chose and advised us no worries she may change the color to a VERY slightly different shade. ‍ Obviously she doesn't appreciate or value the time spent by the volunteers who work for her to even debate this and in our presence. Obviously a first world country rescues dilemma and she's not lacking for volunteers if she can afford to dither over a paint shade. She shouted at me for simply for refilling dog's water buckets as she wasted at least an hour of our time while we waited for her to arrive and in between projects as she came and went during the day. We sat around quite a bit waiting to be directed to other work once we finished the assigned task so we found things to do which we thought would help but instead got shouted at for our initiative. She tried to walk it back stating that was someone else's duties and if they weren't doing their jobs she needed to know. While trying to micromanage and control everything she's so disorganized she cannot properly delegate. Linda is both the dogs best friend but her own and the dogs worst enemy. I understand why she has difficulty finding permanent staff and volunteers. I now see her social media posts asking for donations and volunteers and I understand why she cannot find good, permanent volunteers and support staff.

I do respect the objectives of what they are trying to accomplish, but it does prove the point of...Why people shop for dogs versus adopting. 1) We were promised an in-home inspection after many phone calls/interactions with one of their field representatives. When we were close to scheduling, they were no longer available to answer our calls nor responded to our inquiry. We felt that this was a slap to our face to drive over/close to 100 miles to visit. 2) After visiting Daphneyland, we were promised that one of the Basset Hounds would be On-Hold for us. A few days later on Social Media, the same dog was adopted to another family. FALSE PROMISES!! We have had more interaction and proactive responses from Basset Hound Rescue of Southern California. We wanted to rescue one, but unfortunately, it won't be from here. The Yelp Journey you take is an inspiration for others. Whether it is for them to try or to be in the footsteps of your experience. With every Yelp Story, it gives another day of bright light from the hidden shadows. Yelp Today and be heard!

I have personally spent time at this amazing place and know the staff well. They have the Holy Grail of information on nutrition, rehabilitation, overall wellness and needs for this breed of hound. Please come and visit when they are open and come see for yourself! There is so much love, kindness, devotion, and hard work put into keeping this facility running smoothly. Dawn has a lifetime of experience and wealth of knowledge and can answer any questions or concerns. They do their best to place the hounds in good homes and it shows. It's a special place. One of a kind in the world for Basset Hounds. Don't hesitate and adopt.

    Tl:dr poor communication. You are gambling with opportunity to get a pet from them or having your…read moredata used elsewhere. Most of us want to do a good thing and help a rescue and a poor animal find their new home and the new family. And to have a fluffy companion. I found a kitty on Petfinder that was listed by Forgotten Angels. It sounded a little sketchy that there is no business adress listed anywhere, only a PO box. I wonder how many cats can fit into a PO Box of average size? But whatever, as long as they have the cats, right? I immediately contacted them for detaiils and got an email with 5 page questionnaire that I filled and waited. Got a text to schedule an interview. The Interview was a military style interrogation on the answers I provided in the application form. I was hoping that I will be granted security clearance and a well paying military job with a retirement package, but apparently it was not the case. After promises to let me know the next steps, I got zero communication. I did not realize that this cat rescue is as popular as a Hollywood diva with too many followers and sending a follow up message is too much of a burden for them. I was Forgotten by the Angels of this rescue,  ghosted to never hear from them again. The cat I was interested in was removed from pet finder the next day. Was I catfished? I will probably never find out...

    I don't know anything about the cats they have for adoption but they have been great for TNR (trap…read moreneuter release ) Vickie is really nice whenever we interact which is usually for me to come borrow a couple of traps . Cathy is amazing she helped with one friendly cat that came out of no where started making a home in my garage after 2 weeks searching for an owner and getting no responses Cathy made an appointment with her vet to check him out and see about putting him for adoption . I'm so grateful to her doing all that . She really cares about the cats ! I took a TNR class from Jerry and I learned everything I needed to know he also communicates very well when I need to email him . I've had really great experience with them . I hope the place can grow and one day they can open a wellness center that would be great but it will take donations for that to happen .

    Basset Hounds are some of the most lovable dogs that you'd ever meet. They've been featured in…read morenumerous ads. Most people recognize them as the spokes-dog for the ever-so-popular Hush Puppies brand of shoes. Admirers are drawn to their short stature, droopy eyes, and long ears. The problem is that a lot of people aren't truly prepared for the amount of work that goes into raising and caring for a Basset. When families give up on these little guys, they often get dumped in the pounds and have very little time to get out alive! Thanks to the hard work of countless volunteers, many Hounds have been given a second chance at life. Daphneyland, aka The Basset Rescue Network is located in the city of Acton. The property is quite large, having 5 acres for Bassets to roam within a safe environment. Several runs house the dogs but often times, they run freely around the yard. Dogs that are going through cancer treatments are kept in the main home on the property. Special needs dogs in doggy wheel chairs still roam freely and continue to enjoy life. They all just kind of hang out and await that moment in which someone will take them home and love them forever. From what I was told, you don't chose your dog....it will choose you! We were chosen by quite a few Bassets today and it was overwhelming to say the least. To hear the backstories on some of these Hounds is absolutely heartbreaking! These were someone's pets, a child's best friend, or gift to someone who simply thought they were "cute". It's refreshing to know that the volunteers and staff at Basset Rescue Network are so devoted to these dogs. If they don't get adopted, then they get to live out the rest of their lives here. Anyway, if you go to Daphneyland's website, you'll fill out an application for adoption. They'll review it and then call your veterinarian for a reference. A volunteer will perform a home inspection and then they'll decide if a Hound would do well with your family. If you make it this far, then the hard part will be choosing which lucky Hound will live with you in its new forever home! While we are still in the application phase and don't know if we've found the perfect Hound for us, I am still so grateful for this experience. Interacting with all of these wonderful dogs for a few hours was absolutely amazing. There are many rescue organizations to choose from but this one seems to have their ducks in a row. It's well-organized, their heart is in the right place, they look out for the best interest of the dogs, and they will go the extra mile to rescue a Hound. If you're looking to add a lovable Hound into your life, reach out to the staff at Basset Rescue Network (Daphneyland). Whether you take one home or just come out to give them the attention that they need, you'll still leave feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.

    It's a great place until you drop off a dog then it seems like no one wants to talk to you anymore…read more I was told that I could get updates on a regular basis and pics also. Seems like when I ask questions they get annoyed.
