    Animal caring and working hard to find homes for their orphaned animals. Easy to donate to.read more

    I would encourage anyone that is considering donating to, or adopting from BFHS to read the…read moreemployee reviews at Indeed.com to get some insight into the way animals and employees are treated. I wouldn't discourage anyone from adopting here, as it's what is best for the animals. Just know a bit about what type of organization and management you are dealing with. When we recently adopted there was one front desk employee that was continually very snarky. We could not get any real idea of when we could pick up the dog we agreed to adopt. We had to wait for her to be spayed, and the employee seemed to delight in telling us they couldn't give us much of a timeline. I visited our new dog every day the shelter was open while we were waiting for her to be spayed. Almost every day this same snarky employee made it clear they didn't have the staff for someone to let the dog out of her kennel for me. I had made it clear on every visit that I only wanted to say hi and visit through the kennel door. On the one day that employee wasn't there I was immediately offered a meet and greet room to spend some time with our new dog. Quite a difference. There is absolutely no follow up after you adopt. Read the descriptions on Pet Finder and you will immediately notice the over-use of the same cut and pasted phrases. It's difficult to feel like you're getting an honest assesment of each dog. 2 star rating from charity navigator. I absolutely wouldn't support this place financially. The reviews on indeed.com point to fear based management being used to bully employees who actually care about the animals.

    I had first afopted a kitty through Facebook time line. (one of the foster homes) She shared the…read morekitty's progress each week. So I was excited about that. A few years later, I wanted to adopt another kitty she had on her fb. Then, kitty got moved somewhere else. So I emailed POPP each week to know the progress. They were infuriatedI was doing that! One of the foster moms, Tracy Sparks said more or less to back off on writing them emails. They wouldn't even respond at all. They finally Called me from Petsmart, to say, "I thought you were interested in this kitty. Your not here!! My husband picked up kitty. A few months later, the foster mom put another iucture up for this new kitty. I responded to her pick and said how adorable it was. And wrote,."hmmm" She emmediately unfriended me. Obviously didn't want me adopting another kitty from them. Tracy Sparks. All because I wanted to know how that kitty was doing!! Not a very professional behavior. You'd think someone who cares about the kitty's and their welfare is not recommended.

    I recently went into PetSmart looking to adopt a kitten from the event POPP was holding there…read more Well the lady who was talking to us was a terrible representative. She questioned me beyond belief before even asking which kitten we were looking at. After finally asking, she expected us to buy a kitten without even holding/interacting with it. She was incredibly rude and demeaning to my family. Not even sure her name or I'd call her out specifically. They want to help these pets and give them good homes, but then are super rude and ridiculous about it. I'll be getting my pet elsewhere!

    Follow up to my review I have added a photo. I paid to have my pup have a shampoo and cut. As I…read morementioned the groomer did not bathe and only did a partial cut. In the photo you can see the head did not get touched nor the tail. As a foot, I have taken my dog to Petsmart many times and have never had an issue such as this.

    $89 after tip, specifically said, "do not skin him" such a weird request right, unfortunately the…read morelast 2 groomers did skin him, so apparently you need to specify but even that didn't work. I said he usually takes 3 hours, she assured me she could do it in 1 1/2 hours or 2...I said really take all the time you need. His whole underside is skinned, no trimming on the long hair around his parts, skinned patches EVERYWHERE, crooked face, specifically said no fluffy mustache, close shave, of course it was a fluffy crooked mustache. There was a huge patch of long hair hanging down on his butt plain as day!! When I got home and looked at him because of course when you pick up your baby their excited and wanting to get out as quick as possible so looking them over especially for my dog who has bad anxiety isn't possible. First thing I cut the huge chunk of hair hanging down, tried to fix his face cut the huge tuft of long hair hanging off his chest , just sick of it. I spend so much money and place after place either doesn't take the time or cuts him without telling me, I don't get it just so disappointed.
