    This is a great place to bring your dog for the most part. The staff truly care about the animals…read moreand are very communicative with owners about any issues. The owner seems like she honestly cares about the animals but she disregards many employee concerns. It is not an ideal place to work. Employees are often not communicated with until last minute about staying beyond their designated shift and they are asked to perform tasks well outside of their hired job description. For example, incubating and raising ducks and chickens inside the bathroom of the business. This also led to the heat lamp blowing from being left on all the time, and causing a small fire that was thankfully caught by another employee before it caused any damage to people, the dogs or the building. The ducks and chickens remained even after. The entire bathroom was virtually unusable as the ducks and chickens were allowed to roam around defecating on the floor.

I didn't find work for months. It was a terrible time. And I forgot about the debt because I was barely getting by. Now that I'm back on better ground, I paid my debt and requested a pet visits for my senior doxy. Paula declined and stated she informed a fellow pet service of my debt. It is her right to decline but purposely trying to sabotage me getting service from someone else is truly mean spirited.

    Not to be confused with The Pep Zone, which is the Etihad Stadium, where Manchester City pay, I…read moremean play. I found this place heartbreaking and not just because there are so many dogs begging for homes and not just because the concept itself is very sad - but also because the conditions weren't very good, and they often aren't in shelters either but those are no profit places, and this is a profit making store, so I don't get it. I mean I get it but I don't want to get it. I've seen worse but it's still heartbreaking and I highly encourage you to adopt a dog from a no-kill shelter rather than places like this, so that a place like this doesn't have the money to keep doing what it's doing.

The workers stated to me, we are not allowed to wash them. I kept my puppy which was way over priced for her own safety. It's been a year and half. My puppy has had many vet visits. Her neck is deformed, which causes many expensive bills. She is the most loveable fur baby ever, yet she was not full breed, she is not a healthy pup as they state. Her pedigree papers according to vet can not be accurate. She is not a mini poodle only. Definitely a mixed breeding. If you can not properly care for the animals by cleaning them you should not be allowed to cage nor sell them period.

    Whiskers Animal Benevolent is an amazing cage-free cat rescue organization! I highly recommend them…read morewhen you consider cat adoption or if you are looking to be a volunteer or donate funds to be benefactors for cats. The kitties are well cared for, and they have excellent vet care, and are spayed or neutered before being adopted out. I adopted two kitties recently who were rescued from life on the streets. Whiskers adoption coordinator was honest that these two kitties may not be lap cats for a while, if at all. One is eating out of my hand and wants human company. The other is shy, but will have the opportunity to adapt at his own pace with lots of love and reassurance at arms length. Most of Whiskers kitties are ready for your lap!!! Many had families who could no longer care for them or they were found as strays and obviously had families at some point! I highly recommend this organization!!!! They have kittens, adults of so many breeds. I feel they asked the questions on the application and interview to be sure I would be the right fit and provide proper care for these sweet kitties to have safe, loving, indoor homes for life! I adopted a senior kitty in 2019 who had been abandoned outdoors before Whiskers took him in. As I learned at the end of his life, he had survived being hit by a car in his previous life (my vet saw multiple healed rib fractures that indicated this.) So Whiskers gave him the opportunity to have a loving home that was filled with so many "firsts" for this little old man, toys, cat beds, furniture, warmth.... Oscar was so loved and did so well in my home with me and two senior cats. With Oscar's passing, kitties and I took time to mourn and opened our hearts and home in his memory to adopt Coco and Carruthers. They are family! Whiskers gave great guidance on the socialization process for these two precious fur kids to humans & my seniors. I think it is exceptional that Whiskers takes seriously approving potential families by checking veterinary care references and history or willingness and ability to follow guidelines for vet care. Friends who adopted from Whiskers Animal Benevolent referred me. I will be eternally grateful.

    My experience was much like the other commenters here.

Their adoption committee seems to be on a power trip.
