MSPCA IS HORRIBLE. I WILL NEVER REFER, ADOPT, OR TAKE AN ANIMAL TO THEM…read more WORSE ORGANIZATION FOR ANIMALS. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE ANIMALS. SAVE YOURSELF THE HEARTACHE. I will NEVER adopt from the MSPAC again. I adopted a frenchie from Nevins Farm a year ago. They told me that her salary gland was leaking into a pouch on her neck but that she was fine. That if it turns hard it will need surgery. But assured me it was not a "real" problem. Now its hard. Causing discomfort. Affecting her eating. Current vet can't do Sialadenectomy surgery because to close to juggler and judging by his shaking I think he has Parkinsons. Other vet wants deposit of over $7300 just to schedule Sialadenectomy and price to increase during surgery. Called MSPC Angell in JP to ask if they could help and do Sialadenectomy for less since their doctor at Nevins Farm caused the issue pulling teeth before her adoption. (Problem is not on her intake form but is on adoption forms so injury happened w them.) I was told no. They need to $265 for evaluate to see if she needs Sialadenectomy even though 2 other vets said she does. Surgery will be well over $6500. Told me I am to pay full price but they accept financing or I can put it on a card because its so expensive. The woman literally laughed at me. Audibly laughed at me. This poor dog will probably be put down because pet insurance wont cover it. (pre- existing condition). Her current vet can't do it. Can't find a vet who actually cares. MSPCA won't help even though they caused it. And I dont have thousands to pay for what she needs. Heartbroken. My poor girl.

Super lengthy process! I was approved after an extensive period with a long application and…read moremultiple screenings/interviews. It's easier to get a job or apartment than this rescue shelter! Then, once I was ready to meet dogs, they told me to sign up for their Saturday adoption days online. You only get 30 minutes to choose what dog you like from just their photos or else you have to wait until the next two weeks to look again. They don't even update the website with the dogs they have available - all of which are pitbull mixes. When I asked about several dogs that had been on the website for a long time, they said he would need a backyard. As a single apartment tenant in Boston who has had 10+ years owning a dog actively walking him every day, I think this was ridiculous as so many people have dogs in Boston and take better care of them than some folks I know from my hometown. Isn't it better for a dog to go to a nice home for the rest of its life than have it be sheltered or move from foster to foster home? Why did you approve me then?

He is such a well-socialized, outgoing, and sweet boy - he has stolen the heart of everyone he's met. The vet was even surprised by how easy he was to work with at his first wellness / establishing care visit this weekend. He's a happy, healthy, adorable, sweet boy - everything we could have hoped for and more. Rachel was super helpful throughout the entire process of signing up for their waiting list, getting everything we needed ready for our little boy, and choosing him / bringing him home - not to mention taking time out of her. She was available for any questions I had and made great recommendations and has gone out of her way to check in on our little boy since bringing him home. The entire experience has just been completely amazing and we will never even think about looking elsewhere if we ever get a second hedgie!

My husband was sick with cancer and his health declined rapidly and my job also is going through big stressors. While I was in the wrong for doing so, I was allowed to bring puppy back to shelter. When I arrived the woman whom I adopted from, Meg, was extremely rude and said hurtful things. I responded saying it's a difficult time, no need to be rude. She then screamed you are a psychopath, liar and to go to hell in front of others. As I left, I called the rescue Director and she did not return my calls as I continued to try and get in touch. She eventually told me she was in vacation and would step away from her family to call. I said , no don't do that, call me when you return home. She never did. In the meantime they put up posts on social media about how we brought the dog back and said hurtful things. People also commented very mean things on the posts. My son saw this and got very upset. I was very disappointed in the extreme unprofessionalism and frankly harassment. While I know they are passionate about their work and I should not have adopted, how they treated us was disgusting. The puppy was treated like. The puppy was treated like a king by us and was adopted quickly after he returned.
