We adopted a dog from this place that was supposedly in good health and great with kids and dogs…read more The dog seemed fine when we met her so we took her home she seemed to be in some Pain with gentle Petting and bit my toddler after he per her , I'm assuming she had arthritis or a past injury. She didn't break the skin but it was enough warrant us returning her. We also took her to the vet who discovered her ears were very badly infected to the point where she was in tremendous pain , but she was so skittish we couldn't get near her to medicate them. I understand dogs can be different once brought into a new environment but my problem with this rescue is the lack of medical care and evaluating of the dogs behavior prior to adopting. If they could improve on these things they would probably be a great rescue. I'm sure the owner has good intentions and probably cares for the dogs.

I wouldn't say we're "experts" but we've gotten pretty good at it. Since we're not young, kittens aren't our thing. We were looking for a couple of cats as retired as us. I realize FF is mostly a dog organization but their cattery was pretty impressive just the same. They had a lot of sad eyes, and one that crawled onto my chest and just begged to come home. Sadly our decision must be unanimous and one of us was against this one. ( Darn it ) A lot of these cats are so well behaved and just ready to relax. I wish I could adopt them all. After weeks of deliberation we finally decided on a bonded pair at which point the foster decided to keep them. I'm actually good with that. She put a lot of work into them, and now she was "mom" so yeah, I'm perfectly fine with that outcome. Our loss, but those cats already had someone who really loved them. Now I'd feel like a monster for even asking. As the weeks went on, we came to learn that a lot of agencies based on fostering never actually adopt their cats out. We talked to two other fosters and in the end, the same thing happened. Maybe those places ( I'm not talking about FF now ) just enjoy posting cats to view but not actually adopt. How sad. Anyhow, the cats at FF are available and in my opinion, probably the better cats to adopt. They just want something to eat, somewhere to sleep, and someone to pay them a little attention. What a senior cast asks is so reasonable. I hope people come up here to visit and look around.

Started going back to PetCo because they have focus and will put everything in the bag when I leave. Maybe she could go back in stocking and stop detracting. Nice woman, just not any focus. And distracts everyone from focusing on the job at hand. Like I said, love this place, but.... Better for me to go to Petco and get what I need. With the padres losing so much, it's not even the padres discount at Petco, but just making sure I get out with everything I went there for. She's very friendly and nice, but doesn't have animals on her mind like the rest of the team. Maybe she'll grow into the maturity it takes to do the job, maybe she won't. In the meantime, you're losing customers and I take my $300 a month+ and go elsewhere. It's a small drop in the bucket, but watch the faces and rolled eyes customers give to each other when asking questions, or when you're trying to check out and she's literally tacking at the guy trying to check you out. Someone should be paying attention there who is oversight. Perky doesn't cut it anymore when you can get what you want for cheap and get free delivery, or go to the kahootz in Poway, or Petco. Or Amazon. Really used to love this place. But.... When customers have to point out the shortcomings of what training isn't covering then there's a problem from the top down. When you have people sitting in the oversight chair up on the right side, you'd think they would be listening to see how things go, instead they join in. I'm too old for this crap. They seem to be the only game in town for a lot of items. I've spoken with two other people who go there who have had similar issues when asking for help there. Like her saying "she" (instead of "we") doesn't carry it, so she doubts the existence of a product. Seriously. Has done this to me twice. And to two other shoppers I know who are friends. What's going on there? It doesn't matter to me, I am going elsewhere again. Just when you had me back. So, don't even bother replying, not coming back. I hear there's a new pet store setting up in town. I guess competition causes competency. Eventually, she'll learn the job if people start mentoring her.

I got my Sulcata from here and Jacqui was so great. All of the animas are so well taken care of and…read moreJacqui was a wealth of knowledge. She makes sure that the animals are going to good homes by asking for pictures of where they'll live and of the adopters knowledge of the animals. The wellbeing of the animals is truly her main concern. What she's doing is so amazing as these animals often get bought when they're tiny and cute then when they get huge they'll just get abandoned. I got a bigger guy bc I've always wanted a giant tortoise and finally have the space to do so. I love my big boy so much.

She gave us a tour of her property and introduced us to all of the tortoises she cares for. The enclosures are incredible, and it's obvious that every tortoise there is well cared for and very lucky to be in her hands. All adoptions are free however please consider giving a donation so Jacqui can continue this wonderful organization. We originally went to adopt one desert tortoise and somehow left with two! We instantly fell in love with a tortoise that had been dropped off that very morning. We are beyond happy to have added these two to our family. If you're considering adopting or just want to learn more about these amazing animals, I can't recommend Sulcata Rescue Ranch enough!

I wish I could give more than 5 stars!…read more I have been patient in looking to add a kitten/cat to our family and stumbled across Marigold on a fosters Instagram page which prompted me to submit an application. Kat reached out the very next day after reviewing our application and pre approved us. Yelena reached out for all coordination afterwards. Marigold was not even posted on the rescues page but they were so kind and were able to get us in to meet her. The foster mom (and dad) were wonderful and have been doing this for so long (60+ kitties). We instantly fell in love with Marigold and were able to be selected to adopt her (pat on our back for being able to provide a good home). She came from a hoarder home and was lucky to survive from malnutrition. We came back to get her after getting she completed her shots/spayed. Not even 24 hours in, my one year old tabby loves her and she is settling in perfectly. I will say I have had not so great experiences with other rescues in the area and Dirty Little Paws surpassed all expectations! I hope one day I can repay them and foster another baby in need.
