There is an error since there are not 3 but actually 4 reviews & all 4 are positive. Three of the…read moreratings are 5/5 & one is a 4 which is almost a perfect score. Each one describes having had a very positive experience adopting their animal from the shelter . They only had good things to say about the condition the animals were in, their care & how well they were treated & loved. Of the four no one mentioned the number of animals as a problem except one person. He did not disagree that there were many animals but had no criticism of it negatively affecting the good quality of care they were receiving. In fact, he felt in view of the large numbers of animals desperately needing help, it made sense to take in more as long as the shelter was able to provide the necessary care to each of them. The concensus in these reviews is that they are indeed doing this very competently.

I am the proud owner of a very happy and healthy cat from Animal Rescue Network in Montreal!…read more This is a no-kill shelter, entirely run by the kindness of volunteers and donations from the community at large. As a former volunteer, I also worked to help maintain the shelter. I can say first hand that the comfort and personality of each cat is considered, rooms and cages are cleaned twice a day, with multiple feedings and treatments, and lots of one-on-one attention from a large team of people who are there because they love cats. ARN actively promotes the adoption of any healthy cat to a safe home. It's important to note that there are negative comments and images posted here that are very misleading. Most likely, any cat with visible symptoms is newly rescued and obtaining special treatment and recovery from a whole host of circumstances. It takes time for a cat to physically and emotionally recover from life on the street. If the cats are deemed to be happy and healthy, they are blessed to be adopted or live their full lives at the shelter where they are kept safe, warm, well fed, and loved. My advice to anyone is to make an appointment to visit the shelter and see for yourself that Animal Rescue Network is doing wonders to help these cats. Thank you ARN for the love you give to our furry friends that cannot speak for themselves!

I was looking for assistance in finding an organism that can help with lower cost surgeries for domestic animals because am unable to afford the astronomical cost of a regular vet. The answers were: We can't help you. The 3 options given were: 1. Figure it out on your own 2. Abandon your animal at a shelter 3.

I really loved working there , loved taking care of the animals and people were very nice to me:)…read morefelt like I had finally found a job which I was passionate about even if the pay is not that great.. but in the end, even if I thought that everything was going well, some people were talking behind my back instead of just directly talking to me about the issues. I ended up losing my job with no clear explanation of what happened exactly. It was frustrating because I loved sharing my passion with others that loved animals too but turns out not everyone wants the best for you or anyone. I just know that I'm worth more than an association that believed lies of some backstabbers that just wanted me out of the picture. Be careful and watch your back... no one is your friend even if they're nice to you! All hypocrites:/

This was a disappointing experience for my mother-in-law who had just adopted a rescue dog from the…read moreSPCA. Catherine, the dog trainer, demanded $150 for an initial evaluation, $20 for an ill-fitting chock chain, and then requested $675 in cash, and in advance, for 4 private training sessions. She did not understand my in-law`s needs, came only 2X before claiming that personal issues prevented her returning to the training, and then call screened my mother-in-law`s phone number, never returning calls or acknowledging her commitment and obligation to complete the training. It has now been 5 months since the last training session. When asked to return the unused money for the missed remaining lessons, she flatly refused! My mother-in-law is out the money, and is now not interested in continuing with this woman. Not a happy customer, and definitely NOT RECOMMENDED!

I have been bringing my cat Bo (Beanie) to The Animal Health clinic since he was 7 weeks old. He is…read morenow 3.5 years old. Their level of care is immaculate and pricing is extremely reasonable. The reception remembers Beanie every time he comes in as a kitten would give him cuddles before his appointment time! Bo just got neutered last week and the vets were, again, immaculate. I can't stress how wonderful the level of care is here. Reception is also spot on and the techs always call and are extremely supportive and informative. I live downtown but always take an Uber to this clinic. It's worth the extra time and money.

Finally land someone on the phone a week later, make a Saturday morning appointment specifying that I need to be somewhere by noon. Appointment time of 10:40 not respected. Multiple people with 11;00 appointments for both cats and dogs seen first, walk ins seen first (non emergency) I had to leave after an hour of waiting with my pets still not treated. I had to leave my pets to have their booster shots and send a friend to pick them up, not be able to complete 2/3 of the appointment as I am not there to be shown how to trim their nails (the only reason I was waiting to clip them) nor ask for the vet's investigation of a certain coughing/sneezing behavior that's been repeating (kept video of the incidents) nor provide any in person information relevant to their check ups and other issues with their diet. At no point did the staff advise us of any anticipated delay as we say there for an hour. The service has drastically changed since I last used their services and I will be looking elsewhere for my pets' needs.
