With so many great dogs and cats crowding the local shelters, it's nice knowing there's non profits like ARR that are helping solve the problem and uniting wonderful animals with their forever home. We worked with Barbie adopting our American Bully Toby. He has been a wonderful addition to our family and it was a delight working with Barbie. I hope more people think about adopting their next dog or cat from rescues like these because there are so many animals that need our help. Lastly, the next time you want to add a furry buddy to your family think about an American Bully (aka Pitbull). They're by far the best family dogs you could ever ask for. They're smart, great with kids and other animals, and easy to train.

We couldn't be more thankful for Animal Rescue Recon and our foster mom Barbie! We have always been…read morepassionate about adopting. In November, 2021, we decided to add another fur baby to our family. We already had two senior rescues but we noticed how fast they were aging. One faster than the other, and we didn't want the younger one to be left alone when we lose the older one. We adopted Leo, an energetic poodle, chihuahua mix and he has brought us immeasurable joy! Barbie genuinely cares about her fosters! She vets adopters very thoroughly! We had a meet and greet in a park to allow all of us to be comfortable with the match. We really appreciate that because we know that when Barbie gives a family the thumbs up, she knows that rescue will be going to a loving, forever home! Leo is the sweetest puppy and all he wants to do is play. That has been challenging for us because our senior dogs don't want to play with a puppy who can be a little too strong and a little too rough for aging dogs. We spend hours a day, playing with Leo, taking him on walks and throwing a ball but it just never feels like enough. He goes to doggie day care once a week to play with other younger dogs and is so happy there. That's when we decided that Leo needs a playmate, a younger pack member who can match his energy. We reached out to Barbie and she matched us with our newest family member, Love, a Chihuhua, Shihtzu mix. Barbie assured us that she wants to play and is fearless! We worried that Leo might be too rough for her tiny size, but let me tell you, she is small but mighty! If he gets a little too rough, she tells him off and remarkably, he listens! He is a lot more gentle on Love than he has ever been with his other fur siblings or us! Since adding Love to our pack, we notice the older dogs hanging around us again, when before Love, they spent a lot of time away from wherever we were with Leo. They watch with amusement as Leo and Love play all day. Sometimes one will jump in and play for a minute and then continue to let them wear eachother out. Animal Rescue Recon is an organization that changes lives! They bring endless joy into the lives of so many! I made sure to change my Amazon smile donations to Animal Rescue Recon of Oakley so they can benefit in the tiniest way, that will never be equal to the way they've filled our hearts! Thank you so much!

They told us that the condition should pass within an hour. Within an hour the cat was dead! Unfortunately, pets are considered property in the State of California and not much you can do for bad veterinary practice! My advise: make sure your vet is a compassionate person and has good bedside manners.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Darby Park Doodles and Malinda. We have adopted three…read moredoodles from her over the years, and each one has been absolutely amazing. Our first adoption was 14.5 years ago; and from the very beginning it was clear that Malinda takes her breeding program and the care of her dogs very seriously. All three of our dogs have been patient, loving, intelligent, easy to train, fun and full of personality. They are incredibly loyal and truly became beloved members of our family. Two of our dogs were even trained as therapy dogs, and they have done a wonderful job in that role. One of them graduated at the top of her class, which speaks to the temperament and intelligence of the dogs Malinda raises. Malinda clearly has very high standards for her breeding program, her litters, and her guardian homes, and it shows in the quality, health, and temperament of the puppies she produces. We absolutely adore our dogs, and because of our consistently positive experiences, Darby Park Doodles is always our first choice when we think about welcoming another dog into our home. If you are looking for a loving, well-bred doodle with a wonderful temperament, we highly recommend Malinda and Darby Park Doodles.

My family has a long history with them -- my mom's previous dog, Lexie, also came from Malinda and lived a wonderful 15 years. When I was looking for a dog during the heart of Covid, I knew exactly who to reach out to, which is how I got my gorgeous girl, Sunnie, who is now 5. Sunnie is everything you could possibly want in a companion. She is truly super-human: incredibly smart, was so easy to train, and is incredibly loving and intuitive. What I love most is that she is the perfect size. At 17 pounds, she travels with me everywhere seamlessly -- from New York to Sedona to Big Sur. She truly has changed my life, bringing a joy to our home that words simply cannot capture. Living down in Southern California, coordinating everything with Malinda was exceptionally easy and seamless. I never hesitate to recommend Darby Park Doodles to anyone looking for a dog. If you are looking for a beautiful, wonderful, intuitive, and loving companion that fits perfectly into an active lifestyle, look no further!
