Little Rascals Rescue - Killian my senior Cairn Terrier - Animal Shelters Near Me

Jen and her team are some of the most incredible people I have ever had the pleasure of working with when it comes to veterinary care. Every action they take, every decision they make, is done with genuine compassion and dedication. Their love for animals is clear in every interaction, and it shows in the exceptional care your pet receives. I cannot recommend them enough. Before going to any other veterinary clinic, I strongly suggest giving Jen and her team a call (or a text) to see if they can help. Not only could you save yourself thousands, but you'll also ensure that your furry friend gets the absolute best care available. To Jen, Dr. Kit, Liz, Melissa and everyone else on the team, I want to express my heartfelt thanks. You all are truly amazing. read more

I took my dogs to see Jen today for labs so she can have some dental work done. I've talked to several different places in regards to my dog's teeth cleaning. She has stage three periodontal disease and needs a lot of treatment which can be very costly. After speaking with Jen, she has comforted me and assured me that her dental bill is never more than $500 but because of my dogs age she had to have labs drawn today. I met Jen in person today and I can tell you that I already trust her! I will definitely update after my dog has her teeth cleaning but we need to wait for labs to come back first. Definite thumbs up so far! read more

Jen is awesome, honest and deeply cares for her job. I took my lab for teeth cleaning and everything went great. I'm very thankful for Jen and her team. read more

They are truly the best! I've rescued three cats, and this clinic has helped every single one of them. The care they provide is genuine and compassionate, and the donation-based pricing is a lifesaver compared to traditional vet costs. Please don't let the 1-star reviews fool you--most complaints are just about response time, which is understandable for a small mobile clinic doing so much good with limited resources. Be patient--it's worth it for your pets! read more

I have 4 dogs. All 4 go for their dentals there. Jen is the easiest to get dentals scheduled and the prices can't be beat!

We have taken our pug here twice for dentals. Each time, we've had a great and safe experience! This time, he ended up having two bad teeth removed and there was an infection found. So thankful we took him in when we did! They sent us home with pain meds, antibiotics and care instructions. We are five days out, and our pug is doing so well. The owner Jen drives down from Oregon to host these low cost clinics about once a month. Yes, she is hard to get ahold of- probably because there are tons of people trying to book and it's just her running this. Yes, you may not get an immediate response on text. When your pet is in their care, they are safe, caring, competent and professional. I completely trust Little Rascals. A $250 dental with full sedation is incredible and a service to the community. With two teeth pulled plus meds, we paid $350 total. Little Rascals puts comfort and health into reach for pets who would otherwise not have access to care. I am so thankful for Jen and her team. Highly recommend. read more

They have always cared for my dogs teeth at a very affordable price. With great care and kindness.

We have attempted to contact this, which seems to be an amazing place that helps owners of adopted pets. Sad to say that they must be too busy to call or message our family back. Mind you, there is only one number listed to reach out on this site. We hope that everyone else who does reach out to them does actually get help from The Little Rascue Rescue and does not experience what we have. read more

Jen is absolutely fantastic! She made the experience of getting my chihuahua Coco's teeth cleaned a breeze! You could tell how much she loves animals when you talk to her! She is really a blessing and God sent for the loving work that she and her team offer! Jen has the biggest most beautiful heart!!! I'm on a fixed income and couldn't afford The Arizona Humane Society's estimate of over $1000!! Jen thank you sooo much for Cocos teeth cleaning! Her smile is even brighter! Coco sends you a big! read more

Very pleased with my pup's dental: he was a rescue needing multiple extractions! The process for surgery was very professional and I was kept well informed. Now 2 weeks post op and what a difference! You can tell my dog is happy and grateful for his pain-free mouth! Had interacted with this organization years ago and was impressed then as well by their obvious passion for helping animals! Good experiences! read more

Only place I will take my fur babies to get their dental done! They do get booked up but they are worth the wait

Jen and her team are caring and compassionate. They obviously care about their "patients" and the family who brings them for treatment. I know I'm not alone in giving Little Rascals two Thumbs up, and a shrug hug, too! read more

Little Rascals helped get my baby girls teeth all taken care of at a price I could afford. I didn't realize the extent of what needed to be done and am so grateful to Jen and her team for taking care of Chica so she can live a long pain free life now. Thank you from both of our hearts read more

My husband & I contacted little rascals for vet visit, shots & surgery for 2 dogs. You can't leave a VOICEMAL the message on the phone T tells to text them they will get back to you quicker. NO THEY DON'T! 2 weeks later we got a text message they were ready to help us. Too late! If you have a emergency forget getting these people to help... DONT WASTE YOUR TIME SENDING A MESSAGE read more

Jen and her team are great! Both my daughter and I had appointments for dental work for our dogs on the same day, and it scouldn't have gone smoother. Pricing is very reasonable. read more

Cannot say enough about the care and the relationship built here. Jen was an instant friend. I was highly opposed to having my 2 "little girls" cut (spayed) but I understand the argument. If it were up to me- no. But to be a good husband, I agreed and the care and love and recovery were all exemplary. I could eat Jen up. I wish she were my doctor too. read more

I just got my 9 year old Dachshund's teeth cleaned and extractions that were very necessary. Jen and her staff were absolutely God sent! My dog is doing fantastic and resting pain free. I cannot isay enough good about Little Rascals Rescue. Thank you so much and there are 2 more doggies coming you way too :) read more

Absolutely awesome organization!! Button and Luna you!! Button was in for dentistry and is doing beautifully!! Luna was in for spay and umbilical hernia repair! She is doing great!! Thank you!!! read more

Jen & the entire team at Little Rascals Rescue have provided top-notch service to me on 2 occasions. They spayed my dog and later gave a rabies vaccine, toenail trim, and anal gland expression. It was SO quick and efficient. They are super kind and wonderful people. Highly recommended! read more

If you want an amazing dog, adopt one from this rescue! I adopted one a couple years back and was amazed at the demeanor and behavior of our new family member. I was so impressed that I decided to give it another shot. We got a second dog from Little Rascals and found the same to be true for this one as well! I visited the boarding facility and saw the amount if love that Toni gives to her guests. She is a class act and I have nothing but great things to say about her and the rescue. I'd recommend them to anybody! read more

Jen Kenney is RUDE!! SHE'S NOT A VET but that won't stop her from diagnosing and telling people how their veterinarian is clueless. She has said she knows more, so watch out vets with her lack of vet schooling, she calls most of you out!! She seems to care about animals but doesn't always act in their best interest. read more

i have been taking my dogs to jen for a couple of years and i have had nothing but pleasant experiences, they are attentive and always answer all my questions called the day after to see if everything is okay. we have had teeth pulled, neutering and spayed, shots, microchlps, and a tumor. i trust them with my babies. i don't usually write reviews but i needed to after i read the negative ones i read. take it from me they are fantastic. it's not a fancy setup it's a mobile vet and if that makes you uncomfortable then i suggest going to a vet and pay at least 3times the amount. read more

Id like to write a review about what happened to my dog. I had spoken to Jen by text and by phone. My little chihuahua Mitsy was suppose to get a dental cleaning. I was still deciding if I wanted to get a spay. When we dropped her off at around 10:45 on Monday May 18th I filled out paper work that authorized a dental cleaning and nothing more. They called me later in the day saying they spayed her and were about to work on her teeth. I was in shock. She wasn't there for that and I didn't want to put her tiny body under so much at once. They said they mixed her up with another chihuahua named Missy. They waived the spay cost as they should since she wasn't there for that. She had 8 teeth pulled and very out of it when we got her back. They said they would microchip her for free but called after we already got home saying they forgot to put the microchip in and we could come back. I dont live close. So I didn't do that. The next day Mitsy had dark red bruising on her abdomen. I panicked and messaged Jen who said thats a lot of brising and to bring her in. I was working and didn't feel comfortable taking her back there. I took her to banfield who was concerned about her brusising but said their doctors were all in surgery and to take her to Blue Pearl Animal Hospital. I rushed her there and spent nearly all day waiting for them to figure things out. The doctor said her clotting factors are good but her platelets are low from the dental and surgery. Its been a week and she still has bruising. This could have been avoided. She didn't have to go through all this. Spaying is good for your dog yes but I didnt want to put her through all this at once. I feel like this was done rough to have this amount of bruising. After this I cant trust these clinics. Their organization and communication needs work. Im sure things have worked out for others but this was a horrible experience for myself and my tiny baby. In one setting she got her teeth cleaned, 8 teeth pulled and an unauthorized spay. read more

I was having a problem with my pit bull and I needed to bring it back to the rescue. The large breed coordinator, Toni, was extremely harsh to me and degraded my character as a pet owner and then, actually recommended that I have the dog put down. She even went so far as to provide me with a phone number to a veterinarians office where I could have my dog put down. Coming from a "no-kill" rescue, I was appalled that their coordinator would actually suggest such a thing, especially after taking the time to personally tear me down and degrade my character as a dog owner over the phone. Completely unprofessional. It is challenging enough of a time to ultimately come to the decision to return my beloved dog to the "rescue" but then to be treated this way was just completely unacceptable. What makes these "rescues" think that they can treat people in such a way? I will escalate the matter higher through the organization but thought others might benefit by NOT going to this rescue.

I don't know who Toni is? Jenn, is the BEST!!!! I got my baby Maggie a Mastiff/lab 6 years ago! I can call or text her with any dog related problems, and she always gets back to me!!! She truly loves animals!!!!!! read more

I adopted a cat from Little Rascals several years ago and due to her demeanor and health, when it came time to adopt another we wouldn't go anywhere else. We got another cat who was just what we were looking for. Both of these cats are amazing and I love them very much. The first one was saved of the e-list by Little Rascals because she was a kitten and country doesn't bottlefeed them. Thank goodness for the kindness of volunteers who bottlefed her until she was ready to be adopted. The second cat was an adult, returned when his owner needed to return to her home country. Due to regulations she was unable to bring her cat with her. This organization took back the cat after being in this woman's care for nearly a year. Tha's what I love about them. I had such a great experience that I recommended them to my in-laws who adopted 3 cats from them and my parents who adopted a dog. read more

I adopted a dog from Little Rascals Rescue approx. 6 weeks ago. Shortly after he bit me. When I notified her and asked her to come picked the dog up she blamed the entire incident on me. Her attitude toward me was very rude. I would not recommend or use this agency again. read more

I had a very similar negative horrible experience as prior reviewer "Rudy S." in the past couple months ago..."...especially after taking the time to personally tear me down and degrade my character as a dog owner over the phone. Completely unprofessional.It is challenging enough of a time to ultimately come to the decision to return my beloved dog to the "rescue" but then to be treated this way was just completely unacceptable. What makes these "rescues" think that they can treat people in such a way?" I literally have not run into such a more degrading horrible human being as unpleasant and rude as Toni. We were misled and not given the full true facts regarding the background and home environment of the dog we had adopted, and ended up needing to give the dog back due to aggression and unfriendliness towards our other dogs. Toni not only made this the most unpleasant experience since giving back a dog is emotional enough, but she also degraded our characters as pet owners. She claimed we were liars since she "has not even seen this dog bark", let alone have aggression. We tried to inform her for the sake of the dog our observations to help her with future adoption so the dog would get the best loving forever home, but she is so closed off and not understanding. And the "partial" refund back within the 10 days allowed to see if a dog works out was $50 out of the $200 (which Toni insisted she didn't have to give back ANYTHING due to us giving back a dog, so we should feel lucky she's being nice to give us anything at all...when it's clearly stated a partial refund is given in the contract.) She is not to be trusted...when it was not in the best interest of the dog to stay with us, she would not be flexible to meet for the health of the dog to be returned back...she insisted she was sure "it's not like we are abusing the dog." She obviously is in it for the money and definitely not for the sake and health of the dogs. We wanted to check back and make sure the dog was okay and has found a loving forever home, but with such an unpleasant experience we wanted nothing more to do with Toni. She's not a good person and does not have the dogs best interest at heart either. STAY FAR AWAY! read more

My family and I had been looking for just the right dog and had left messages/emails for several organizations w/ questions about various dogs. Instead of simply emailing me back, Jen actually phoned when there was a dog that fit our needs. The fact that she actually made the phone call was what prompted me to drive all the way across town (we are in Ahwatukee and they were showing dogs up by Arrowhead). We ended up adopting the sweetest little black terrier (Stella) from them. It is easy to tell that they took very good care of Stella while she was in their care. She is healthy (we had her vet checked) and happy. Jen said that I could text or call her at anytime to ask about anything. I texted her one question this weekend and she called me immediately. We had a nice long conversation and she was immensely helpful. I have really been impressed with Little Rascals Rescue and have been telling my friends every chance I get. Highly recommended. read more

Its funny how suddenly there are good reviews for Toni. She does seem great at first but if you have a problem then her true character shines through. Yes people want cute animals, however families with children want animals who are not aggressive or a threat to well behaved children... Yes Toni keeps a clean place for these animals but she does not check for Giardia (a parasite that cannot be found under a microscope) and considering that my puppy had this when I got her, I am sure that most of the other dogs have it as well. This can infect humans although does not happen often. I would be most concerned with small children in the house because they are constantly putting their hands into their mouths. These parasites will leave your pet without proper nourishment which is extremely important in a growing puppy. Toni also does not socialize the puppies well and puppies need to be socialized the most between 6 and 14 weeks. I am sure that the rescue has adopted out plenty of animals and they have been just fine but for her to assume that any animals who are having issues once in their new home is the people who adopted and not the dog is an ignorant assumption.. As for Toni being straight forward and some people considering that rude... That is not the circumstance of our encounter I am straight forward and She was rude... Everyone beware.... Toni seems upfront in the start but if things don't go right behavior wise with your dog.. You will quickly see through that... I am not completely against this rescue, however Toni is not what she seems. I did not expect to end up with a dog that needs extensive behavior training with a certified behaviorist that would cost me a large sum of money that I cannot afford at this time.. Thankfully someone else stepped in to help until I can do more for our beloved dog... STAY AWAY FROM TONI SHE WILL MISLEAD !! THIS RESCUE TAKES BEHAVIOR CASES THAT OTHER RESCUES WONT.. IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN I WOULD GO TO ANOTHER RESCUE SO THAT YOU LESSEN THE CHANCE OF ENDING UP WITH AN AGGRESSIVE DOG!!! Toni refused to.listen to what i was telling her about the dog we adopted and considering that she was in denial about the dog having fear issues and trying to place the blame on us as though we are not a good family.. This poor animal would have likely been subjected to being returned again or in a home where the people are not so understanding... AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOU PET TESTED FOR EVERYTHING WHEN ADOPTING. read more

Little Rascals Large Breed rescue is above the standard of other rescues, in my opinion. I adopted a dog from them about a year and a half ago. The dog that I adopted was terrified of everything, which made me take a second glance, because those are the dogs that really need an understanding person. I talked to Toni about the dog and she gave me all the facts, straight up. She talked with me at length about my ability and patience to take on a dog with such fear issues, and in the end I adopted the dog. With a little bit of patience this pup has turned out to be a great dog. Because of Toni and her level of knowledge and caring for the dogs she rescues I became a volunteer. I've had nothing but positive experiences in the 1.5 years I've been volunteering. Toni doesn't pull any punches, she is very direct which unfortunately some people take as rudeness. She will take great pains to listen to what your needs are, and steer you in the right direction towards a puppy or adult dog that she thinks will suit your situation; She has extensive understanding of dog behavior. Little Rascals also has a network of volunteers, all of whom have the same goal, to find the best homes for the dogs that we have. read more
