I don't get why people are so mad about their policies which are in place for the sake of the animals. Also, there is definitely some leniency if you are rescuing a senior or special-needs animal.

It is so traumatic for an animal to be rescued, adapted to new surroundings, and vetted. Then after the animal is brought on board to MLAR, getting them adopted out is yet another stressor for the pet. Having an animal returned, or worse, turned out, because the new pet was not properly placed in NOT in the pet's best interest. These folks do their best to ensure the placement will be a success. Our little baby came to us after being rescued and cared for by MLAR. We are forever grateful.

So happy I was able to adopt my English Cream Golden Retriever from To Love A Canine. I am apart of…read morethis program that trains rescue dogs to become service dogs and was thankfully able to get my wonderful dog for free as a military veteran. The adoption process was easy since I'll be going through the program and they found me a dog that is everything and more than what I wanted and expected in a doggie. She is so relaxed, calm and very lovable. She loves attention and needs it constantly which is what I want. I can't wait to get her trained so she can help me in the home on days where I can't get out of bed because of my back and difficulty doing so. I am so thankful for the team at this rescue for making the adoption experience easy and fast. After they found me a dog that would match my preferences, they emailed me a picture of Navi ( her new name is Navidad, since we bought her before Christmas. We met Navi the next week, and I basically got to bring home my new furry daughter the same day. I was able to meet the foster family who had her to ask questions about her and to find out her favorite treats, food she eats and to get any other information I wanted. Brought Navi home and she bonded quickly with me and my daughter. She dragged me up the steps and somehow knew where we lived. It's like she knew she was home. It's been almost 2 months now since she's been adopted and it has been the best experience of my life. My dog changed me in so many ways, and for her being my first dog I am so happy I got her. Her temperament and personality matches ours and we love her so much. If I decide in the future to get another dog I would adopt from To Love A Canine Rescue again.

I cannot say enough good things about Finding Shelter. It's easy to see that this completely…read morevolunteer based organization truly cares about the animals and their potential adoptive families. Finding Shelter makes absolutely sure that you're paired with the right animal, through veterinary & personal references, as well as meets with the dog and the family, and home visits. All of these things are done to ensure a good fit for all involved - the happiness and safety of the dogs and families is of utmost importance, not adopting out as many dogs as quickly as possible. Do you really want to rush through an adoption, just to have to return a dog because it wasn't a good fit after all? We adopted our dog, Linus, from Finding Shelter two years ago and really couldn't have found a better dog for our family. He gets along famously with our original dog and the two are now inseparable. When you get a dog from Finding Shelter, it is fully vetted and micro-chipped and you also get a lifetime of telephone support from a wonderful dog trainer. If you're serious about finding the right dog for your household, this is really the only way to go.

Adopting a pet is the best thing ever. I have done it 5 times and have had great experiences with…read morethe Morris Animal Shelter, Operation AVA and the SPCA in Philadelphia. I did not have a good experience with Finding Shelter! I found their process to be slow, intrusive and arbitrary. Here is my experience: 1. SLOW! -- From application to home visit took a full month. At other places we have adopted dogs, we filled out an online application including a vet reference and then adopted the day we found the dog we wanted. 2. INTRUSIVE! -- Currently I am caring for my son's rabbits and chinchillas while he is in college. All of the animals are quite healthy. I also have 25 years of experience adopting and successfully raising dogs. My vet confirmed that I am a good owner. Nevertheless, Finding Shelter required me to take my son's rabbits to a vet so that the vet could provide a reference. We would have left Finding Shelter at that point except that we really liked a particular dog. I took the rabbits to the vet and $100 later the vet confirmed that the rabbits are in perfect health and well taken care of. I can't imagine why Finding Shelter thought they needed a reference about rabbits when we were adopting a dog. The whole thing was so intrusive. (By the way, Finding Shelter never even mentioned or asked to see the chinchillas.) 3. ARBITRARY! -- When our chosen dog finally visited us, all went well for the first hour. The dog got along with my dog and was friendly with us. Then the volunteer suggested that we get out toys. Quickly, the dog became overwhelmed and nipped at my 15-year old son's shirt tail. Then he sat quietly by the volunteer. It's important to note that this dog had bitten an old woman while in foster care with the volunteer (where he had been for three months with several other dogs before we met him). Rather than discuss with us what had happened, what we learned from the experience and how we would help the dog adjust to our home, the volunteers left without saying a word about the incident. We received a call that night suggesting that we adopt a different dog. When I said that we liked the first dog and tried to explain what we had learned from the visit, the volunteer said that she would call back. She did not. I reached out again a couple days later and learned that the decision was made that the dog needed a home with a retired couple without dogs or children. The decision was so arbitrary (my son wasn't even the one playing with the toys, he was just the closest person to the dog when he became nervous), and explains why this adorable dog has been in foster care for so long. Rather than accept another dog from Finding Shelter, we adopted a dog from Operation Ava two days later. 4. LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS! -When I emailed the director of Finding Shelter asking to speak with her for a few minutes about our experience, she said she was too busy and that I could email if I wanted.
