They are not totally free, but they are funded by donations so the cost is about half of what you'll pay a regular vet. They will work with you. They will let you know the cost and necessity of every procedure before they do it. If they give you an appointment, don't miss it or they will drop you. You have to pay a deposit of $25 to get an appointment. Don't expect a fancy vet office. Very bare bones but the care is excellent. The communication is not. They do not have a phone number, all communication is done through email. Sometimes they respond and sometimes they don't. If they see your pet, the vet will email you within a few days with diagnosis and treatment plan. I'm still trying to figure out how to get followup care. I emailed twice over the last week and no one has responded. But overall, they're awesome. They help a lot of people who otherwise would have to put their pets down. Thanks, CHEW.

The original dog on their website I was interested in was a full breed miniature long haired dachshund. But they said she'd been adopted. BUT she had puppies. Okay, so I went to the foster home. The puppy in question wasn't really a "puppy" anymore at 15 months old. And he wasn't really a long haired dachshund. I decided to take him anyway. East Dallas Pet Rescue charged me $400 for a dog they claimed was half dachshund (by virtue of his mother being a full breed miniature long haired dachshund). I had him DNA-tested. Turns out I have an adorable super mutt who is only 20% dachshund, the rest of his makeup is rat terrier (28%), chihuahua (23%), Yorkshire terrier (20%), and the rest is indeterminate and what they call Supermutt for remaining percent. I love him anyway but can't recommend the rescue. They told me he was fully vaccinated but couldn't even supply his rabies vaccine records.

I had a great experience adopting our kitten from here! After looking for an entire weekend, and…read moregoing to 7 different animal adoption locations in Dallas, Carrollton and Plano, I saw a Facebook post of kittens at Garland and we planned to come by the next week. Our first round of looking was frustrating, as it was hard to find kittens and you couldn't get an idea of their personality at most shelters who make you apply before you look. Garland Pawsibilities was amazing! Initially we went to the garland shelter but were directed here because they have more cats. They have this amazing kitten social room that you can go sit in, and let the animals Come to you. It was a great way to let their personalities shine and privacy for the adopters as well, with no pressure. I went in on a mission to find a tabby cat, which they did have, but this tiny little black kitten stole my heart. He came up to my boyfriend and I and sat at our feet and was just so curious about who we were. I know if they didn't have the kitten room we would've never come home with our perfect kitten! He was very young when we adopted him, so he did require more shots we paid for at his vet. Just keep this in mind for new adopters. The workers were great and let My boyfriend and I take as much time as we needed. They answered all of our questions, and each time I stop in they seem to have a similar staff that is very friendly. Thank four for all you do! A year later and we can't believe what a great cat we got. He has been happy and healthy since.

After reading through the existing (negative) reviews, I'm seeing a pattern and one that I strongly…read moreagree with. We had the same happen to us; you enter and it's immediately a sense of seriousness and "what do you want?" type of attitude. Lovely. I am always in support of people and organizations that reach out to animals in need and it warms my heart when either I or someone else, adopts. This bunch, however, comes off rude and uncaring and as though customers (potential adopters) are an inconvenience and certainly NOT the first priority. A few days ago (from today's posted date) my husband and I adopted a kitten of roughly 6-8 weeks. A sweet, beautiful cream-colored boy. The process was straight to the point and simple enough, however I'd like to make a note that when I was asking about vaccinations, microchips, etc. the woman who I was talking to paid more attention to what her friend was saying than what my questions were. I'd hate to come off as "high maintenance"; I'm simply trying to understand what the kitten is expected to receive in order to live healthy and content. That following evening I noticed the kitten was having a hard time going to the bathroom (#2) so I started inspecting him. His belly was clearly expanded but I figured he simply ate a lot at the shelter, upon examining his rectum there was a clear sign of major (MAJOR) constipation and a potential hemorrhoid. We gave the kitten a warm wash to remove any residue since he was, in fact, LEAKING from the bottom (and continued leaking). My heart broke after realizing this kitten needed medical attention and was most likely in serious discomfort. I'll save you the time about the measures we went through that day (Saturday) and following Sunday, and the fact that the whole weekend consisted of us tending to the little guy from morning till night in any way we can. My husband consulted with a local vet and he said the kitten is most likely suffering from an infection, so by keeping him safe in a kennel we were letting him rest while keeping distance from any bacteria reaching our other cat. We agreed it was best to return the kitten back to the shelter that Monday where he could get around-the-clock medical treatment. The day the kitten was returned, I had to be at work, so my husband went alone and later shared the story. All in all we spent $80 on the adoption and about $80+ more on his general care for those 1.5 days. He entered and explained the situation. The woman pointed at our adoption papers and without mentioning anything else, said that there's "no refund". My husband was shocked...he didn't even mentioned money once, in fact he answered that he doesn't care about the money, he just wants the kitten to get medical attention. She looked at the kitten sitting in our pet-taxi and asked if he'll need his taxi back. Thieves, much?! "Yes." It's clearly all about money for these guys. She took the kitten out and he left. No regard for animals or people. Rude, inconsiderate and greedy. Stay away from this place. We adopted from Plano Animal Shelter once, which was a pleasant experience and visited Rockwall Animal Shelter, which the customer service is night and day compared to this hole. - Concerned Citizen and Animal Lover
