| - I love dog shelters, and rescues, but rescue a dog from somewhere else like the pound/animal care and control where the dogs are at risk for being euthanized. The volunteers/service workers, whatever they are make it VERY clear they don't need your service, probably because they charge so much per adoption. The service is very poor, and they only let you get dogs out depending on your qualifications to care for the dog. I was rejected to see a dog, because the dog was aggressive? What about training the dog then, instead of locking him up in the tiniest space with no human interaction. It infuriates me how dogs are treated sometimes!!
I wanted to meet him and let him play a little outside his cage. A little weird, but oh well. They also take in highly aggressive dogs, but then don't let them out for meet and greets, or go to behavioral training?? It's not safe to keep huge dogs in and never let them out, sorry but the tiny space you keep dogs in is detrimental to their health.
I was very disappointed with my experience here. It's a nice shelter, but very over-priced, and more about making $$ than actually finding the dogs a good and proper home. Invest your time and money elsewhere. The customer service was honestly terrible. I left feeling highly disrespected and upset that these so called "dog-lovers" are so harsh with no interpersonal skills with humans.
The people at the front desk seemed more highly trained and friendly, but the others that take you for "meet and greets" are really unexperienced, young, and just flat out rude. Sure hope they were volunteers and not employees.
