| - I adopted a dog from AAWL and started experiencing problems with her shortly thereafter. When I initially introduced her to my older dog at the shelter, they seemed to get along fine, but when I brought her home, she became progressively more aggressive with him. I did some research on the internet, and some of the behaviors that she was displaying with my older dog at the shelter were aggressive behaviors that the shelter employees failed to recognize. I proceeded to call the shelter over 45 times over the course of three days (all of which they were open) and left them two messages, both of which expressed the urgency of my situation. None of my calls were returned. They gave me no other choice than to just show up on their doorstep with the dog. I surrendered her to them and was not charged an intake fee, but the $125 adoption fee was NOT refunded or counted as a credit of sorts toward another dog. Additionally, I filled out several pages of information on the dog's behavior, none of which I feel was taken into account, as I checked the website, and the dog was adopted and surrendered to the shelter yet again. Overall, I was extremely dissatisfied with my experience with this shelter, and I would not adopt an animal from them again.
