Exceptional support and genuine care -- ARC with Love truly puts the dogs first…read more Our experience with ARC has been nothing short of compassionate and supportive. From the very beginning of our adoption journey with our puppy Rio, the team was incredibly responsive, patient, and genuinely invested in making sure both the dog and our family were comfortable. As first-time puppy parents juggling full-time work and kids, we had moments of overwhelm and uncertainty. ARC -- especially Louise -- handled every question, concern, and even our emotional back-and-forth with grace and understanding. Whether it was guidance on feeding, vaccinations, behavior, or just reassurance during anxious moments, they were always there to help. What stood out most was how deeply they care about the well-being of their dogs. Their priority is clearly to ensure each puppy goes to a safe, loving, and committed home -- and they take that responsibility very seriously. At the same time, they showed empathy toward us as a family trying to do the right thing. Thanks to their support and encouragement, we were able to work through our initial challenges and confidently welcome Rio into our home. We are so grateful for ARC with Love's dedication, transparency, and heart. If you are considering adopting, know that ARC with Love will walk alongside you every step of the way -- with honesty, kindness, and the dog's best interest at heart. Highly recommend!

When I contacted the rescue about her condition and asked for a refund, I was told the adoption fee was now a "donation" and would not be returned.$895 This experience put my health, my family, and my other dog at risk. Please do your research. Look at her adoptions. They are mostly Puppies she makes money from. Update in response to Ms Ward. anyone who reads this, please don't take my word for it. Search Louise's name and Arc with Love. She's right, I needed to return her because my health does not allow me to care for a dog with parasites/worms, and kennel, cough. The last part she made up about me referring friends and family to her. I'm disgusted with this situation. More so that a woman takes advantage of poor innocent animals to make money. No one drives from MA to NJ to adopt a dog,, spends $895 on one and just decides for no reason to bring the dog back 400 miles there and 400 miles back. Please, just do your homework on this woman and notice she adopts 90% cute little puppies and kittens.

such a wonderful adoption experience! i noticed the newest edition to our family online, and…read moreinstantly fell in love. quickly filled out a simple adoption application. had a phone interview, scheduled a visit, and voila- i've got a new little furry love and a giant gift basket of amazing toys to get us started! the process was super simple, and the volunteers are just fabulous. they're very sweet, and knowledgeable- and they put no pressure on us to adopt. once we made the decision that the little fella was a good fit for our family, we had a couple more papers to fill out, and we were on our way. today, our new little monkey bean is happily getting used to his new surroundings (and new big brother). we couldn't be more thrilled with how things turned out. it's true, if they determine that your home is not the best fit for the animal, they reserve the right to reject your application, and rightfully so. you're a complete stranger who comes out of nowhere looking for a defenseless animal to take home. even with the best intentions, there are too many people out there who bite off more than they can chew when it comes to the commitment of taking care of an animal (a commitment that can last upwards of 20+ years- and the last years are generally very trying). i'm grateful for their educated discretion, and i would have been even if they'd have rejected my application. if they felt that i couldn't provide the home that that specific animal needed, i'd have to trust that they knew the animal better than i. from my experience, its a wonderful organization. i'm glad that everything worked out the way that it did. will post pics as soon as the little monkmeister gets settled in- it won't be long, judging by how things are going. thanks volunteer auxiliary!

In turn, the animals are left for a long time without permanent homes. In my situation, I had a perfectly good, loving home for one of their dogs, but was denied because I live in Staten Island only 35 miles away. I offered to pay for all travel expenses for them to conduct the home visit. But they said they just "don't like NY." I even suggested another reputable rescue group to conduct the home visit and report back to them, but they claimed they are the only trustworthy people to decide where the dog should live. I offered a donation and they refused it. What type of small organization does that? They then went on to say because I work, I shouldn't have a dog. Meanwhile, I get home at 3 everyday. They then said because I never had a dog I shouldn't have one. They even said the dog I wanted to adopt requires another dog as a playmate, which was not listed in his profile. This is the type of organization that gives other rescue groups a bad name. Groups like this are the reason why people buy from puppy mills. They make it impossible for good people to adopt while doing an injustice to the animals. This place should be shut down.

My dog has had skin rashes and itching since she's been born six years later after and plenty of other vets and a ton of money I'm so happy to found Dr. Hops. He helped her and the other doctors wanted to give her steroid shots every couple weeks and that was actually hurting her more than helping her. He's no nonsense. He got right to the point of her problems. He's even done surgery on her overgrowth on her leg and it turned out fabulous and even helped her with ear infections. Also I think it's so sweet They have little dogs walking around the clinic. He's truly caring and kind and helps all animals. I have two Chihuahuas that he's helped over the years.

Despite a clause in the adoption contract that Res-Q-Pets would cover all medical costs related to health issues existing before adoption, they covered one vet visit then became non-responsive.

Dr. Koster is truly excellent at what she does! I know what it's like to be great at your craft, to…read moredo it for years, and to approach it with discipline--and that's exactly her style. Dobermans are definitely her specialty, and I really appreciate that she runs a no-nonsense, strictly professional practice. As animal owners, let's be honest--we can be a little over the top sometimes! My girl Navy, a Doberman, started seeing Dr. Koster at 10 weeks old for her ear crop, and we've been returning regularly for taping because Dr. Koster does such a clean, professional job--I didn't even want to attempt learning it myself! During that time, Navy had some issues with acne and paw rashes, and even though we were just in for a taping, Dr. Koster took the time to examine her, explain the cause, and prescribed antibiotics. She also trims Navy's nails bi-weekly--something I didn't realize was so important, but with Dobermans, it's best practice to keep those nails short. Dr. Koster owns several Dobermans herself, so I trust her completely. Yes, she runs her office differently than some might expect, but I don't mind that. I actually prefer my teachers and professionals to have structure and boundaries. Is she warm and fuzzy? With time, yes. Once you get past first impressions and don't judge the book by its cover, you'll see she's a sweetheart. Julia, her assistant, is also incredibly kind and clearly loves Navy. I have nothing bad to say--Navy's cropped ears are top tier. She looks like a straight-up editorial Doberman! Millstone is a bit of a drive for me, but I'll always make the trip for quality care. Pictures below speak for themselves!

First I'm gonna admit that I told her about herself. After I decided to leave and not come back, I…read moremade sure she understands that her saying and treating people any way she wants, and then acting offended when someone does it back to her, is not okay. From the first phone call, I thought the receptionist was extremely rude and dismissive. Come to find out that the same person is the doctor. She is very aware of her attitude problem and her Google/Yelp reviews. She threatened to post the video of our argument in the parking lot. I hope she does. You will see that when I told her she was "abrasive" that is when this entire problem went into overdrive. I have to admit, from people I asked, she is good at her ear cropping but damn her attitude and personality needs a lot of work. Or she makes enough money and doesn't care about people that won't bow down to her poor demeanor. If you can deal with rudeness, go to her.
