I got one cat there, and as he got older I got another. I was there recently to look for a dog. They do a lot of outreach and they are totally committed. Last time I was there I saw that they put up some cat houses outside for the older feral cats.

TLDR: Small non-profit animal rescue in Raeford, NC. Check out their Facebook page or Petfinder for…read moreanimals up for adoption. Sherry, one of the volunteers and foster parents is incredible. We adopted a 3 year old pit mix named Preston from MADR last year. Preston was living with a foster family who took great care of him and brought him to adoption events. We saw Preston on Petfinder and fell in love. We called the rescue and talked with his foster mom, Sherry. We could immediately tell how much she cared for her fosters. She gave background on Preston and interviewed us to make sure he would be a good fit. He is high energy and was not trained so he needed an active family of experienced dog owners. We knew he would be perfect as long as he got along with our other dog. We met the rescue in Fayetteville at an adoption event. Sherry was experienced with introducing new dogs. Preston and my other dog, Zeus, thankfully hit it off. Preston immediately took to Zeus and Zeus quickly accepted him as his new younger brother. The rescue offers a trial period before paying the adoption fee. We were very confident Preston would be a perfect fit so we went ahead and paid the fee the same day. The rescue gave us his vet papers, heart worm meds, rabies tag, harness, and leash. Preston was already neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccinations. We love him so much and take him everywhere we can. He loves swimming in the pool, shopping with me, hiking, running, and playing at the dog park. He now knows how to fetch! He is incredibly sweet and certainly high energy. We are very appreciative for Sherry and Making a Difference Rescue. Overall, excellent experience adopting from this rescue and we certainly recommend this rescue to others!

I always see a lot of volunteers working to keep the rescue in good shape and clean. Finding our dogs was like finding family and their process is very good. It's a bit of a drive if you are coming from Charlotte, but it's worth it. These people care so much for these animals and we could see it the whole time we were there.

I cannot give my full review yet I called at the end of last week (week of Friday the 22nd) and…read morethen again on (Wednesday the 27th) on the General message line explaining my hardship and the situation I am having. The message states one of the volunteers will call back. So I am trying to be patient I understand there are a lot of animals that just get dumped for the worst reason. People that should never owned a pet got one. For example the cuteness of the puppy has worn off so I am just going to drop it off , or I am moving , or just tired of owning a pet . Owning a pet is a lifetime commitment their lifetime. If you own a cat get it fixed and you will not have kittens everywhere I am a huge animal lover it breaks my heart to see homeless animals anyway I don't know if they will return my call but I hope so because I need their help Tracy Isaman

Playground review: it's a super nice space and is designed for ages 2-12. There's a ton of different equipment for all abilities. However frustrating when older/larger kids are wreaking havoc and abusing the equipment while moms are talking with their backs turned away from the playground. Don't be those moms.

Excellent animal rescue center and educational activities! Fabulous staff and friendly service for…read morekids. My child enjoyed every opportunity to meet animals in a relaxed and educational environment. They have a wonderful playground outside and is free. The animal tour is $10 / adult and $3 for kids. Worth every penny, my kid had never enjoyed animals until this trip. The outdoor animals are in excellent comfort and clean areas. We fed goats and pigs. Then we went inside and saw Guinea pigs, rabbits, and a lizard! Phenomenal educational opportunity!! You do need a reservation for the animal tours and they have summer camp so call Ahead to make sure it's available. Parking is in the lot.

She brought us so many wonderful times till she sadly passed last week. We told them what type of second dog to keep Bonny comfortable we were looking for.

We`ll be returning now to have them help us find Fiona a much needed companion. It`s a tough and pretty thankless job they do. I commened and thenk them.

This facility clearly cares about their animals but they are not transparent with their adoption…read morepolicies. We were told upon visiting that preference for adoption is given to people that have previously adopted. Ok, fine, that's great. Publish that. Make that clear on all media used. It is not published anywhere on any of their media. I contacted them via Facebook. The shelter read my message and had no comment. If a previous adopter fills out and submits an application, the process should close immediately. It's cruel to give false hope to others.
