    Lucey's Goosies
    Katherine I.

    Hit on his head by an acorn, Chicken Little runs to tell the king that the sky is falling. Along his way, he is joined by his eclectic band of barnyard friends: Henny Penny, Cocky Locky, Ducky Lucky, Goosey Loosey, Rabbit Habit, Lilly Piggy, Myrtle Turtle and other animals who are acutely aware of the falling infrastructure, thanks to Chicken Little and their own hardship experiences. It is with great remorse I tell you this story's end. They head straight into Foxy Loxy's lair and are swallowed into his gullet. The king is never told that the sky is falling. Well, consider me Chicken Little's advocate, homelessness Foxy Loxy, and yourself the king. The sky is falling! Help this fantastic animal shelter to which all others should aspire. (It's operated so brilliantly they should charge admission.) Volunteer, donate, spread the word....You've never seen an animal rescue and adoption facility like this.... Dog enclosures so big, they dwarf your office cubicle. Their cats are purrrtasticly lovable. Lilly the pig is smart, uber-friendly, and up for adoption! Each species has its own sun-lit room. So, there's a rabbit room. A room that houses cats only. There's an aviary, a stable and corrals for the horses, pigs, goats, and fowl. How has this facility escaped the Yelp radar? Before bringing yourself, the kids, or your local, lovable, animal enthusiast, check their wish list for things to bring http://www.mspca.org/site/DocServer/Wish_List_Winter_2008.pdf?docID=2641. Everyone LOVES, LOVES, LOVES it here! You will not see a frowning face - except on the little boy who wanted a rodent and was told "No" by his mean, mean, mean, old Mommy. Prepare to get your heart strings strummed.

    They had him neutered, cleaned his teeth, and started treating his heartworm(which we knew he had when we adopted him).

    I had heard about One Tail at a Time through a friend at work a little over a year ago. I had…read morepreviously had my family dog for 15 years and about 2 1/2 years after she had passed my friend at work happened to send me a picture of an adorable Shar-Pei mix from One Tail at a Time that needed a home (Meri was her adoption name). While I was not "looking" for a dog, I have always been an avid animal lover and once I saw that picture I couldn't help but look into the rescue more and this puppy !! Needless to say, the staff at One Tail was informative,helpful, and amazing with their animals. Their adoption process is detailed and may take a few days longer than others, but it is due to the fact that they research and make sure each dog goes to a great and well fitting family. I was impressed that when they asked for references they actually followed-up with each one I gave!!! Which to me means not only did I take the time & put my heart into this process but they did as well! Once I received word that my application was accepted they scheduled the pick-up at a local pet-store. When I arrived they had informed me that my pup unfortunately needed to stop by the vet first since she wasn't feeling well that morning. While I was a little sad I had to wait a couple extra hours to get my little puppy home, I was so happy they took the time to make sure she was happy and healthy before sending her home! And they even offered to keep her an extra couple days at no extra cost to make sure she was ALL SET, I did however take her home that afternoon and she has been an amazing addition to my house ever since!! (for the past year :) ) One Tail is a great organization and the volunteers and employees really care about the animals they are placing, it's not just a first-come first-served situation. Great Experience overall and I would recommend (and have) using them for anyone or any family searching for a new furry addition to their home!!

I was SO impressed with everything from the application process through bringing her home but I am most grateful for the thoughtful placement. We really did search and search. We needed the perfect dog who would love our kids but also not drive our blind pug crazy. The descriptions of Freya and thoughtful back and forth when I started the application process described her so clearly and perfectly. She really is the best dog and the best fit for our family and now four years later I am still so grateful to this organization for their help to bring our girl home. Thank you thank you thank you from one very happy and grateful family.

Found their website and emailed them and called as I could not fill in the application from my computer. They replied, mentioned and sent a picture of Jolene, a beautiful black/white 2 yr. old tuxedo female cat. Had a meet and greet at the foster moms home and Jolene and I had an instant connection. She was purring, rubbed up against me, talked. It felt as if we had known each other for ever. Jolene was a perfect companion for me and Jolene was mine before I left the home. I picked her up at the Petco store in Plaistow, NH, filled out the paperwork, bought furniture, food, toys and things Jolene would need. She is my baby. What a joy she is. Has checked out every inch of my apartment and has made herself right at home. Very affectionate, follows me everywhere. We get along just fine. I am very thankful to Animal Rescue Merrimack Valley for introducing me to my Jolene. They are the best!

The foster I was in contact with told me to reach out anytime if I had questions, so I asked whether she had noticed it before the puppy was transported up north. She said no and then completely freaked out, telling me "now she's really upset," as if it were somehow my fault that the puppy developed a stye. Of course, I brought the puppy to the vet the very next day. $249 later, the vet said she was otherwise fine and prescribed an ointment, which cleared the stye in less than a day. I also brought a stool sample to that appointment. Low and behold, the puppy tested positive for Giardia. Treating that cost another $144 for both my new puppy and my dog because they had been together since I brought her home, which I believed was safe since we were told the puppies were "quarantined." All of the adopters from this litter were in a group chat with the foster parent, who asked us every single day for three days if the puppies were okay and whether they had diarrhea which now makes perfect sense. Another puppy from the litter also tested positive, and only then did the foster admit that one of the puppies had already tested positive and treated before adoption. Not a single adopter was informed of this until our puppies were already infected. Instead of acknowledging that we should have been alerted that our puppies were exposed to a highly contagious parasite and that all puppies have been treated proactively, she deflected responsibility and blamed transportation. It's clear she does not understand how contagious Giardia is or that her entire yard is now likely contaminated. She also informed us that she currently has another litter of puppies who in my opinion are at risk since soil is contaminated for 2-4 weeks even after feces has been removed. This is absolutely irresponsible behavior and shows zero accountability, and at the end of the day regardless of treatment we had the right to know they was contact with this parasite instead of hiding it.

I naturally wanted to adopt (as I had rescued our first two from behind a dumpster) knowing how much rescuing means fo animals in need and myself. It wasn't what I expected from a typical shelter set up; the area for the cats were some trailers behind a building in a lot. But the facility was clean and the team trying to assist us was very lovely. It was my first time trying to adopt through a shelter and wasn't sure what to expect and I'm don't feel I did, but since it was my first experience I'm also not sure if something I did was offensive because the woman who seemed to be running the shelter wouldn't let any staff show us a single cat. There wasn't a ton of cats there but possibly around a dozen or so. She was very terse, told us all the cats were either spoken for or couldn't be adopted yet. We asked if there were any we could visit with and one staff member was about to show us the back room where he said some were up for adoption when this woman cut him off saying "no they can not see those cats". It was so odd as if she did not want us to adopt any of her cats however I'm totally baffled as to what that reason could be. Possibly just a bad day and we caught her at the wrong time? We are a couple in our 30s, friendly and polite. We both work with the public and are pretty good at being thoughtful in interactions with others. Felt perhaps she just didn't like how we looked or something and was dead set on not helping us. Felt so uncomfortable, judged and unwanted from the whole situation and I would never try to adopt from this location ever again. **I have since adopted from other shelters and had wonderful experiences**

For updated reviews, please check out their Facebook page - you'll see many (positive!) reviews there. - Folks, this is a non-profit 501()(3) organization. That means it's entirely volunteer-driven. I've worked with a similar organization in Texas. Let me tell you, you have no idea how hard it is to run something like this. The challenges you deal with managing dogs, and the people fostering and caring for the dogs, and the logistics involved with transporting dogs, is extremely difficult. These people aren't doing this to make money. They're doing it because they are passionate about saving dogs' lives. And they do - they absolutely do. I've been involved with some of the dogs this place receives; they are great dogs - and all of them would have absolutely been put down had this place not been generous enough to accept them. I know sitting there reading stuff online about dog shelters and dog fostering sounds inviting - everyone thinks it's easy and that they could do it better - let me tell you, you have no idea! Rewarding, yes, but definitely not easy. - If you're reading this, and you live near them, please reach out to them and volunteer. Get involved and help out awesome places like this. They really need it - you can make a huge difference in doing anything you can to help out.

When I hear someone mention they are looking a a cat/kitten, I tell them of Another Chance adoption, tell them where they are located. Next time I see the person they say "m Thanks for telling me about Another Chance We got our next family member there" Then they tell others.

That is only time she is out. doesn't try to go out thru kitchen door, she knows she can't go so she will just look. she is the BEST. She is6 yrs old now so she (I hope) has many more to go.

It was very clear that everyone working at the event knew all the kittens and their personalities and had interacted with all of them. We ran into a problem when we brought our kitten home and realized she began sneezing and coughing. She had a serious infection and we had to make several trips to the vet to get her the proper medication, but ACAR paid for all of the medication and vet fees. My advice to anyone considering adoption from this shelter would be to take your new kitten to your own vet before bringing her home and exposing her to other pets/small children. Our kitten is now happy, healthy, and a very important part of our family. We can't imagine our lives without her! An added bonus is that the adoption fee includes spay/neuter for your kitten, as well as all necessary vaccinations!
