They transport them here super humanely and are such a great organization. This is their website https://www.threelittlepittiesrescue.org We applied for John then had 2 different phone interviews and a reference check. They are 100% legit so I am unsure about all the negative comments, I am a real life person from Oregon who adopted a dog from them. Our coordinator who was based in Washington also connected one of our dogs siblings to use because at the time we didn't have social media and it's been so great to develop a friendship with them and for John and Elliot to be able to reconnect. The adoption prices has definitely gone up since March 2024 but not surprised as so has everything in this country. John is so well behaved and came that way and I attribute that to the amazing fosters these dogs have! Thank you TLP and if you're looking for a cat or dog, I highly recommend saving one from the overpopulation Texas area where this rescue saves dogs!

Would give zero stars if I could. First they charge three times as much as a local adoption…read more Second, my cat arrived filthy, covered in some sort of crust, so he needed a bath ASAP. Third, they claimed he was dewormed, yet we noticed little white worms coming out of his bottom immediately. After a a trip to the vet, he did indeed have a tapeworm, also Coccidia (a Giardia-like parasite that took two rounds of antibiotics and all the stomach upset that goes along with it) and he had a severe case of gingivitis that involved several more vet appointments and life-long dental care. I love my cat, but would I ever adopt through this agency again? Hell no. Thousands of dollars later and no response to my request for a refund of my fees, I say, just leave your door open for an hour and let the cat distribution system do its work. You'll save a lot of money and heartache. Oh, wait, don't get me started on the hours of interviews prior to adoption, not Giardia only for me, but my landlord and three of my references. They are overly thorough when it comes to wasting your time to make sure you're a solid candidate to own one of their rescues. Turns out that they put zero hours into making sure they ship you a healthy animal. Avoid this place at all costs!

Samantha's is very knowledgeable with the Border Collie breed and love her fur babies. I went to her place to visit her and to see her dogs. I was impressed by how well behaved, friendly and affectionate they were. I talked with her for over a hour, getting to know her and to see her 3 week old puppies. She does extra things to help prepare the puppies for their new forever home. I was very happy to know that at the early age of 3 weeks, she starts cutting their nails once a week. Which l have continued to cut little Jake's nails now 3 times a month. He lays in my lap and lets me cut them without a problem. We are so very happy with our little guy! Thank you Samantha

When it was in the pen with its siblings, it cowered in a corner while its siblings romped and played and jumped all over it. This scared little puppy would not have fit at all well with my household. She tried to tell me it was just scared about leaving its mother, but its siblings were not at all scared. When I explained why I didn't want the puppy, she became irate and told me I was a horrible person, etc. She refunded only half my money. I feel like the victim of false advertising--the puppy was nothing like the rambunctious puppies in the video, and I was not informed of that before I put down the deposit. I cannot recommend this breeder.

I received Shannon's contact info from a few other trainers who were not able to help with my dog's…read morereactivity. I was hesitant at first (her classes are not in the "usual" seattle/redmond areas I'm used to) but we were so helpless at the time we decided to try it. From the first email, to our meeting, to classes Shannon was so friendly, kind, understanding and non judgmental. She responded to questions and concerns within a 24 hour time period (I have worked with trainers who took days or up to a week) and always gave amazing advice- even if we weren't currently enrolled in one of her classes. We took the reactive rover class and what we loved about it is that it was outdoors/on her property with LOTS of space and real life distractions. Everything was set up to ensure our dogs would have a positive experience- very important when all you've had lately were negative- and it was great! We were able to practice by "using" other dogs in class but in a SAFE and CONTROLLED environment. The price is amazing considering what you get. I definitely recommend her. It's been almost a year since we took her first class and since then we have taken others as well. It's just fun, she has obstacle courses, and practicing around other dogs in a safe and controlled environment is very important for us. Everyone's on the same boat so there's no judgment and everyone understands to give space because they're also going through the same thing. Much better than being out in public where people are always letting dogs off leash or approaching without permission. Shannon genuinely cares about her dog students and human clients. Give her a call, send an email, ask questions, you won't be disappointed :)

I met Shannon on referral from another trainer after the behavior my dog was displaying became more…read morethan I or she could handle - she seemed "aggressive" and was barking and lunging. From our prior communication, Shannon knew that she was walking into a firestorm of crazy dog and exhausted human, but she welcomed us and gave us hope in a secure and non-judging environment. She professionally and safely managed the entire situation - I never had to worry "what if she does this" because Shannon had it handled. She quickly and correctly assessed our issues and worked with us to develop a plan that worked for my family, within our time frame and comfort levels. During the process, she directed and guided us through every situation, including real time / real life events (walking in my neighborhood) and to this day (nearly 2 years later) provides on-going, free support. I attribute 100% of the success I now have with my dog to Shannon's guidance and mentoring. She's an exceptional trainer with an amazing ability to understand what's going on in the most fearful/anxious dog and their owner. Although graduated from private lessons, we now attend classes regularly - and not really because we need to, but more because they are super fun and what we learn and take away from those classes is priceless. I cannot recommend AnimalKind Training more!!
