    I'm extremely disappointed with this rescue's polices and overall approach. I was denied the…read moreopportunity to adopt simply because I live in the Central Valley... which makes absolutely no sense considering the dog I applied for literally came from the Central Valley. They wrote in an email to me, "You can't throw a rock without hitting an abandoned dog there." Turing away a qualified, loving home-based, purely on zip code, feels more like discrimination in the responsible rescue work. If the goal is truly to help dogs find a safe, committed home, blanket location restrictions like this are counterproductive. It's disheartening to see dogs kept from good homes over policies that seem inconsistent and poorly thought out. I expect better from an organization that claims to prioritize animal well-being.

    Compassion As…read moresomeone who has rescued before and is actively fostering a purebred Australian Shepherd we saved from a high-kill shelter, I reached out to this rescue hoping for guidance and collaboration to help place him in the right long-term home. He had been on the euthanasia list due to illness, and my family and I spent over $3,000 out of pocket to nurse him back to health. We've provided love, care, and structure, and we're continuing to support him while recognizing that--due to his reactivity and my being pregnant--our home isn't the safest long-term fit, especially with a newborn on the way. Instead of being met with support or even understanding, I received a shaming, condescending response that made broad assumptions about our commitment and motivations. Despite stating clearly that I am willing to act as a foster and contribute financially to his continued care, their reply completely disregarded that and suggested I was contributing to the problem. It lacked empathy, nuance, and basic kindness. What's worse is that the tone of their message is exactly the kind that pushes capable, compassionate people away from stepping up to rescue or foster in the first place. It's hard enough navigating complex behavioral needs while doing everything possible to give a dog a second chance--being met with judgment instead of help is unacceptable. I would not recommend working with this organization unless you want to be talked down to for trying to do the right thing. There are plenty of rescues out there that operate with both heart and professionalism. Sadly, this was not one of them. --Sandra K.

My cat almost died and was in Atascadero Pet Hospital the pet hospital for a week. Every one was so long kind and a year later if I take him back for a well visit.

The vet called me explained everything she was considering and waited for my OK which I promptly gave because it's what I thought would happen to begin with. I did have an option to go over pricing prior to any procedures being done however I said "do what needs to be done" and she ballparked the price for me which actually was very accurate. I can tell you that the price was pretty close to what it would've been at my previous Vet, and probably the same or slightly cheaper than the Vet that I currently have. I feel like the poor reviews this place has gotten is based on people with unrealistic expectations. The emergency services here operate just like they would at a human emergency room. Unstable patients take precedent over stable patients. My cat received excellent care and I would not hesitate to use their services again.
