    If you're looking to adopt a dog from Friends of the Animals, PLEASE READ!!! This past week, we…read morevisited this location to meet a dog we had seen online. When we met him, he was extremely well behaved and tame. After a second meeting, we filled out all applicable paperwork and brought him home. After getting him home, his behavior gradually became worse, and he began showing signs of aggression when around food, toys, etc. He would jump on tables and run off with entire plates of food, and then growl and snap when you try to get him away. The first evening, after this establishment had closed, we received a call from Adoption Coordinator Paula stating that while we had met him, he had been sedated with Trazodone. This is extremely manipulative and dangerous. The dog we had met eight hours prior was a completely different dog than the one that was wreaking havoc on my home and terrorizing my family. He bit my wife on the back of the arm, and tried biting me on the hand while trying to get things out of his mouth. Nothing was left out for him. He would climb chairs onto to tables, would grab decorations off of low-level shelves, and then would run around snapping at anyone who would try to take said objects. Turns out a human-sized dose of sleeping medication really tempers an aggressive dog. We were told he had been house trained and did great sleeping on his own. His actions show he does not know how to behave in a house, and as far as sleeping arrangements go, we couldn't sleep in our bedroom because he would just bark at the door all night. I brought all this up when we, unfortunately, had to bring him back. The response: "We're going to work on that." Honesty and transparency isn't something you work on, it's just something you do. As far as the fees go, we were inconvenienced with a check from a bank we don't use; I'm not sure why the original payment method couldn't be used. All in all, this has been a terrible experience. Above all else, I feel bad for the dogs. Kept in kennels, medicated, and then placed in homes whose owners are manipulated into believing they've gotten themselves a completely different pet. This is a true disgrace to animal rescues everywhere.
