Smelled like urine, so not sure if they get taken outside to potty. The only down side my husband and i had was my dog is definetly not mix chihuahua, but i can understand that when they are all so tiny they all look mix chihuahua.We were told she wouldnt shed at all(which i had told my husband that breed sheds a lot anyways), and last but least my dog would NOT potty train outside what so ever until she was pretty much 6months and would occasionally do it a few months after. I would take her out but she would still pee and poop every day as a pup in her blankets so i sadly i couldnt sleep with her as a baby. I wasnt sure if this was because at her old home (furever home) they were all just allowed to pee where they slept so that's all she knew and brought that bad habit over to us. But either way we love our katie and shes grown up to be such a beautiful and wonderl dog.

We'll never know why because he's adorable, but our little Jack Russell-chihuahua mix had been there for a year. They continue to be great members of our family! I have read the reviews here, read the story from the Olympian, and read the comments. Visiting Furever Homes is overwhelming. Its not a conventional shelter. I have had dogs my whole life. My family raised dogs for the Army, and, in the more than 2 hours we spent with the dogs at Furever Homes, we never saw any dangerous or unsanitary conditions. I am disturbed that folks are willing to gloss over the great work the the Gold family is doing because they don't like the smell of a messy dog kennel. The dogs don't care about the smell. The dogs are alive, safe, well fed, loved, and socialized in a pack (which makes them good doggy citizens out in the real world). Adopt a dog from Furever Homes - it's a great organization.

I enjoyed my coffee drink and tea and ofcourse, enjoyed my experience visiting the adorable cats there but the reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that I felt bad for the little cuties.. at least half of them looked exhausted and possibly a bit sickly even. They normally charge $15 for an hour long visit with the cats.. I happened to walk in almost a half hour into the hour and they offered to let me have a 30 min visit with the cats for $7 which is what I did... and i'm glad it worked out like that as I think an hour would be too long when there was only maybe 6 cats in total there and I really didn't feel like paying $15 to see some cats up close.. that's a bit steep but hopefully all the money they make from that goes towards the cat's care. I'll likely be back again on a future trip to check in on the cats and get another delicious drink.

Dealing with Tamera was the one of the top 5 worst experiences I've had in my life…read more This is a SHADY rescue that I DO NOT recommend! I can relate to all of the other negative reviews. When I called to inquire about adopting a puppy Tamera sounded as if she cared. She seemed knowledgeable & acted like she cared about the dogs she was putting up for adoption. After I agreed to adopt the puppy she asked if I'd like to also adopt the older male dog that was her kennel mate. I agreed. It all turned bad after I put in my application & provided many photos of my home. She quit calling back when she said she would. She then moved up the date to meet for pick up. She explained that the male was getting neutered & said I could get the pups on Saturday instead of the original day, Sunday. She told me she would text last night to give me a meet up date/time. I was up late last night & was wondering if I was even going to get them, because she started being horrible about getting back to me & just kept telling me "I work 18 hours a day." I had even offered to drive to Auburn from Ocean Shores to pick up the pups. She refused & insisted we meet up. After failing to text me last night she finally texted this morning & provided a place to meet up & gave a time of 4:30 pm. Just as we were walking out the door she called to change the time to 6 pm & informed that the male is infected with "Coccidia"...a worm. I wouldn't even have been able to see the dogs at 6 pm at night! She took the male in to be neutered on Friday knowing full well he was infected with a parasite! She stated that she had been treating him for 3 days & then said "the puppy doesn't show any signs of it, but I treated her anyway." My roommate was present, I was on speaker phone, so he is a witness to EVERY conversation. She was informed, during the interview, that we had just had to have our chi/mix that we had for 10 years put to sleep on 12/7 due to cancer of the lining of her stomach. Well, a puppy can EASILY get dehydrated & die from Coccidia! If these puppies had died, I would've been EVEN MORE devastated, because I just lost my beloved dog. What I'm really wondering is why she didn't tell me 3 days ago? My roommate finally said "enough is enough, there is something wrong with this rescue, call & talk to her & if she doesn't offer to make this right just cancel." I was so excited about getting the pups! I had so much time, money & emotions into buying their supplies, setting up for them, getting the food she recommended, etc. I was staying up late nights stressing about everything to be all prepared for them. I was watching updated training videos & had invested a lot. I can't even return the food, or the expensive crate (she told me to get a larger one than what I originally ordered). When I called to discuss this with her she didn't even apologize, she YELLED at me & was so unreasonable! I have text messages for proof. She told me that she was "transparent" with me. If she were transparent she would've been HONEST about the dog being infected with parasites 3 days prior to today! I have a genetic autoimmune disease & my immune system is compromised due to the meds that I take, I told her that during the interview. Some types of Coccidia can be transmitted from dogs to humans. Changing of times, failure to contact me on many occasions, were all understandable. HOWEVER, HER FAULURE TO BE HONEST ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE DOGS WAS NOT ACCEPTABLE! When I called her I expected professionalism, I thought she might apologize & offer to hold the dogs until she was sure they were cleared of the parasites... No, she immediately got agitated & YELLED at me! She then admitted that the puppy had some loose stools & when I asked, she informed that they had just been rescued 2 weeks ago. I had adopted my Chi/mix from a rescue through Petfinder, previously, & it was a wonderful experience, so I didn't expect any issues. I will definitely be researching any rescue I work with after this NIGHTMARE! She doesn't have the pets welfare in mind, because she told me not to take the puppy outside until she was 7 months old & her immune system was fully developed. Yet, she put a 3 1/2 month old puppy with a 1 year old Chi/mix that is infected with parasites! If you read the other reviews, her neglect has caused dogs to die from Parvo! Then, she sent nasty texts lying about everything that took place & had the nerve to say "good luck adopting a dog." Tamera is ruining it for people who want to adopt to save animals lives & provide loving homes because they won't be able to trust rescue agencies after the emotional roller coaster she puts people through. Then she is emotionally & verbally abusive after all of her failures to simply be honest! Why is she allowed to work in this field? She should be charged with animal cruelty & neglect! In fact, I am calling the police & I am going to research every animal protection agency I can to report her!

Went after cats and attacked a couple dogs, bit a lady on the hand. Aggressive reactions to a lot of things. She had lied a lot to us to get money from us many times also and never once said thank you for the big Loan we gave her. We have lost so much money to her. We are so disappointed.

My family and I called the Lakewood Petsmart to inquire about kittens. They informed us that they…read moredid in fact have two kittens there. After several more questions regarding what they looked like, male/female, etc., we informed the person on the phone we would be down there ASAP. Upon arriving, we were informed that all the cats are adopted through a woman named Diana Van Dusen with P.U.R.R.R. Rescue. A nice young man at Petsmart let me into the cat area to pet and interact with the kittens while my husband tried to contact Diana. Her phone went straight to voice-mail which promptly stated her mail box was full. The young man told us texting her usually gets a faster response. Keep in mind, we had already driven down to the store expecting to be able to adopt a kitten right there. After several minutes we finally got a response that told us we needed to fill out an application- which was no where to be found. So I took my husband's phone and texted back: "Is there anyway we can get this down right now so that we can take one of these lil guys home with us?" To which I received the response of "someone is on their way". So the family and I waited inside of the Lakewood Petsmart for this person to show up from P.U.R.R.R. Great! They're sending someone down, what great customer service! ...Not so fast. About ten minutes go by and I get another text saying that a lady was there and since no one showed, the lady texting was picking the other lady up because they had appointments to keep. I responded by informing her that no lady was there to begin with because we had been standing there the entire time - even the cashier never saw a rep from P.U.R.R.R. The answer came back as, "Yes she was, I just picked her up." Now, I am not one for games and I will not put my money into a company that is not up to my standards of a professional organization- especially when I am spending a lot of money on something that is alive. I responded with a comment about the high adoption fee ($200) being high for a kitten that hasn't even been fixed, but at least it is understandable given the organization, but that this sort of behavior was not acceptable from any organization and thanks, but no thanks. I then got three more texts after that saying that it was all my fault for demanding that this woman leave her work to go to the store to adopt a pet and a whole mess of other things that are not appropriate to re-post. Long story short (too late, I know) I left the PetSmart and I would not refer anyone to P.U.R.R.R. unless they like dealing with individuals who prefer to lie rather than tell a potential client they cannot get to the store at that time and then blame the client for making them lie to begin with. The saddest part of the entire ordeal is that I know without a doubt P.U.R.R.R. could have used that fee to help with their other bills for the other animals, it's just too bad the person who was on the other end of the phone line couldn't see that. I'm sure those kittens will find a good home with good people no thanks to the lack of customer relation skills at P.U.R.R.R.. At least I hope so anyways.

We have our wonderful goofy pup, Mowgli, from her, he is a year and a half now. Every interaction has been very professional and amazing. She charges a carry fair price for everything included with adoption. If you cannot afford it, then you shouldn't bring a pet home with you. Pibble and All Paws rescues so many dogs from certain death. I think that so many people expect a rescue pup to come free, trained, and guaranteed healthy for their lifetime. That's not what owning a pet is. If that's what you want, get a pet rock. Pets are work, and money....but in exchange you get to save a life and unconditional love!
