First, readers should know I've corresponded with the owner of this business and asked her to…read moreexplain the incident I'm about to describe. Four days later, no explanation has arrived and I'm concerned enough both about what happened and the lack of response and responsibility from the business that I think a public review is a good idea. I booked my dog for daycare on a holiday weekend. At drop-off I re-confirmed pick-up time and that I'd probably be there at the later end of that time. When I returned, there were two dogs in an outside enclosure but no one else was around. I circled the building, called out, knocked on the door upstairs, knocked on the kennel door, and walked a wider circle in case the dogs were outside the enclosure for exercise. I spent more than 15 minutes searching for the owner or my dog before I went inside the unlocked kennel door. My dog was in an enclosure with food and water but from the state of things back there, I can see why the owner's angry I entered. I now wonder how long my dog was in that enclosure because paying for daycare means I'm paying for her to be socialized, exercised, and monitored. My best case scenario was that there would be a message waiting for me by the time I got back to Bear River that explained an emergency or other situation...something that would say why those dogs were crated but unattended. It would also have signaled that someone even noticed my dog was missing. I wrote the owner when I got home, explained I had my dog, and expressed concern that there was an emergency or other problem that prevented her from being there. This is the full reply to that message from the kennel's owner. It arrived 18 hours after I messaged her: "That is definitely not ok that you went in the room on your own. We don't have pick-ups or drop offs Saturday afternoons." When I booked I clearly asked for daycare. At drop-off, I confirmed a window of time that she could expect my return. I paid her. I've asked for an explanation but no other messages to this business have been answered. So here's why I'm posting a review: All the dogs in that back area were crated, and two were unsheltered outside. Some crates contained multiple dogs. That's not a problem if the crates are large enough to allow for defecation, socialization, movement, and food and water, but not all crates seemed to accommodate that. There was also at least one animal in a crate that was too small because it could not sit or stand with its head up. I really wish I'd noticed if the dogs left outside had shade and water. I think the owner, Sara Stewart, knows leaving those dogs unattended -- and crated for who-knows-how-long -- is not the service she advertises, and she got caught. I think taking 18 hours to respond to me is concerning and it leaves me wondering if it took that long for her to notice my dog was missing. And I definitely think a lack of explanation or apology for what is a pretty significant lapse (read: negligence) demonstates arrogance in a situation that was frightening to me and dangerous for those animals.

This organization sells itself as saving animals but all it is really doing is lining its pockets…read more The general approach is simple: get a bunch of donations to pay to go get a bunch of dogs out of kill shelters throughout the US. cram as many dogs in a vehicle as you can and bring them to Canada. Throw them in foster homes for a couple of weeks under the guise of "evaluating" them, thaen put them up for adoption with minimal biographies and glossing over behavioural concern that manifested while in foster care. Collect sizeable adoption fees and put dogs in their new homes with unreasonably short "trial" period. Then, when behavioural issues do manifes, make sure to make it as hard as possible to get help or return the dog and blame the owners. No one should be adopting from this organization. Do yourself a favour and find a reputable breeder who will actually support you through you dog's whole life.

First thing, I am a happy father to a very healthy, fit and somewhat annoying Beagle. He is…read morepampered and generally a good boy! As he gets older I have been keeping my eyes open for a Corgi, a dog that I had the pleasure of raising, 3 of them and yes, at the same time. Save a Life recently posted a 6-8 year old Corgi and I was immediately enchanted with him. He was an adult, had a decent bio, past the chewing stage and I started to envision him as a welcomed addition to the family and what a great life we could provide. I filled out the enquiry form and received a call back the next day. The call began with information about the dog, the organization and finally I was asked if I have any questions. Having been a long time dog daddy we discussed the nature of Corgi's, the potential of my Beagle being receptive to a new member of the family, things that most dog owners wouldn't concern themselves with, since control really is limited and most dogs work their relationships out on there own. The representative then enquired as to what I feed my Beagle? I didn't hesitate to mention that every one of my three Corgi's had been raised on a diet of IAMs and lived to be 17 years old....now that's pretty impressive for Corgi's. None of them had any illnesses along the way. Hence I feed my Beagle, or my show Beagle as I like to refer to him, the same. The representative then proceeded to argue her point, seemingly endlessly, about her views on IAMs. I listened quietly and responded with, 'you should meet my Beagle, he is fit, healthy and his coat outshines the sun!' To sway the conversation I mentioned that I would like to arrange a meet and greet with my dog and of coarse meet the potential new dog as that just seemed smart before you proceed with all the formality. The representative then expressed the requirement of filling out the adoption form, which I had no issues with, none at all except the 50 questions, that frankly wouldn't give any insight into me, my homelife, my treasured dogs life....... my previous three charmed Corgis...... I expressed my disappointment and noted that I am looking to save a dog and that my Beagle was purchased privately, from a breeder, whom I have a wonderful long relationship with now and that none of these questions were ever asked regarding that purchase. Not being able to meet a full grown 6-8 year old Corgi, a hard animal to place and not without some minor challenges, before I even decide if the dog might be as noted, and then socialized with my dog , seems to be the right place to start. The approach of these adoptions is quite frankly absurd and the only one that suffers is the dog. I mentioned that dog lovers are truly dog lovers, looking to provide shelter, food and most of all love. In the end I finished with expressing good luck with your dogs, leaving frustrated, feeling like I was doing something wrong, when the fact is, I was just trying to help a dog, an older dog...... back to the private market. Don't get your hopes up people, these adoptions are always a disapointment.
