My wife and I were in search of a rescue cat that needs a loving home and a second chance. We…read moredecided to make Mother's Day very memorable and get my wife a cat that needs loving and grow with a family. We run into Nutter Butter that had just arrived at the PetSmart on 2140 N Rainbow Boulevard. I believe his arrival date is 5/52026. My wife and I immediately love him, but our determination was based on how he reacted to our children. Our daughter is four years and our son turns two in July. We knew he'd be shy, but Nutter Butter responded very well to our children, and that's what made us take the leap of faith to bring him home. Less than twenty-four hours later, Betty the Adoption Facilitator sent me a text at 7:33am, denying our adoption request, and even went to the length of stating that she refrains from adopting to family with small children. She informed me to wait until my children get older, THEN at that point we can adopt a cat. I expressed to Betty that Nutter Butter was very receptive to my children and that's what made us sure in our determination to adopt him. I would like to state that Betty was not present for my family meeting Nutter Butter. After informing her that I felt this was blatant discrimination, and that I'd be filing a complaint, she immediately requested to meet her at PetSmart so we can discuss adoption at 6pm today. However, the initial encounter was so negative that I canceled the meeting. If this is how your adoption facilitators conduct themselves when dealing with families that want to give cats a loving home, then this adoption company isn't very helpful to the cats they serve. My daughter cried when I informed her of the very abrasive text message Betty sent me. What she texted me after in a disrespectful and condescending tone is what moved me to file this complaint. This really turned a hopeful and memorable moment into a terrible experience with this adoption company. Adoption Facilitators like Betty are hurting the company, and evermore the cats they continue to house.

I appreciated the fact that before I went they asked questions and had me send pictures of my home.. this means they truly care about the dogs and want to ensure they are going to a good home. The dogs they rescue come from unfortunate and disturbing circumstances and deserve all the love and a great forever home and family. Overall, I am so grateful and happy with my rescue experience! We have a wonderful new member of the family that is thriving and so sweet- I'm so happy this rescue has given him a second chance at a wonderful life. A BIG Thank you to Cheryl, Jodi, and Path To Furever Home rescue!

I write this review with a heavy heart! During the pandemic we decided, like many, to get a puppy…read more Our boy Chief, born on 7/27/2020 from Hughes Silver Nickel and Koda The Great Black Bear, recently started having seizures with no detectable cause. Do you own a pup from this breeder? Is anyone's pup from this breeder had or having seizures? Please contact me to share information. I am writing a review for two reasons. First because it is highly likely that other pups from this breeder are having the same health issues as mine and I'd like to share information. Second, because big picture - a lot of things surrounding this breeder appear worthy of a review. Here is our story - as brief as I can make it for this platform: We had inquired about local breeders and it turned out #hughesfamilylabradors was right around the corner from my house. I had multiple conversations with Amber Hughes and absolutely loved her energy and passion for breeding dogs. In 2020 we picked out a chocolate boy to be a companion to our then 2 year old chocolate female, we picked her up in California. We brought home our sweet sweet boy home and named him Chief. Our sweet loving empathy pup has had some challenges that recently escalated to severe. Turns out he had giardia as a pup and we didn't have a clue. I thought he was just skinny like his grandsire. He had of/off bouts of diarrhea with some vomiting from time to time. We got a diagnosis of giardia when he was about 5-6 months old when in spite of his veracious appetite he wouldn't put on weight. Vet tested and confirmed giardia. We did we completed the medication protocols and went back to normal fun lab life. Well, sort of. He would go through these cycles of diarrhea and some times vomiting, run back to vet, do fecal test, no parasites' and can't find out why but more meds like antacids, etc... He had some soft poops but pumpkin and good food kept that somewhat under control. My female lab has never caught it. Vet said once pup gets giardia they always show traces in fecal testing, and we test his poop immediately every time we had to return to the vet for the diarrhea and/or vomiting. Fast forward to May 2023. Chief had a terrible bout of diarrhea but this time vomited blood. Immediately off to Vet. More tests, more meds, no cause to be identified. Meds to coat his tummy before eating, new food. On May 21st he had a grand mal seizure. Terrified thinking he was dying at my feet, we rushed off to ER. Plethora of testing and xrays - no cause was identified. His testing says he had some inflammation but xrays showed he had a terrible bout of diarrhea coming but otherwise healthy. WTH? Why would he have a seizure out of no where? Diagnosis is that it must be a hereditary, in his DNA. I have been in crazy research/detective mode. First thing I tried to do is reach out to #hughesfamilylabradors. I still love Amber but now that I've been researching I'm not sure what to think! My heart is broken because my boy Chief needs help and we need to find out why this is happening but I can't ask #hughesfamilylabradors because her husband announced on FB that Amber passed away December 15, 2022, or so it was posted. The really bizarre thing is, outside of social media posting of her passing there was not funeral announcement or information I could find. I tried to reach out to her husband many times asking if there was any services but got no reply. Again, fast forward to today. I've reached out via social media, the phone number's VM is full, emailed, emailed on their active website and have received ZERO response. I looked up the AKC information on Chief's sire and dam only to see the dogs names with no DNA information or health information. I have the name but not the information on Chief's registered DAM Koda The Great Black Bear but can't locate Jessica Carter. Now I see a posts that make me question if these health issues in my boy is only him or are there others from this breeder. I don't want to think the worst! I'm desperate to know if any other #hughesfamilylabrardor puppies have had conditions like Chief? It seems hard to believe he is the only dog from their breeding business that has seizures. And if anyone knows who Jessica Carter, the registered owner of Koda the Great Black Bear, Chief's dam, PLEASE CONTACT ME! My heart is broken that Amber has passed. I really liked her and hope all of this is just a bad coincidence!!!

They were fully honest about his quirks (chewing) and his behavior (loves kittehs, weird about small children etc) We adopted our dog from them 2-1/2 years ago. We had a few bumps along the way with him as far as getting his training up to speed, but now we have a great dog who we love more than I could have ever imagined. Here is a link to our dog's adopt me page: http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/10512444 (We changed his name though, to give him a "new start") If I won the lottery tomorrow, I would give this rescue a boat load of money because they deserve it so much.

We applied to be dog parents and they contacted us for a house visit to make sure we wouldn't leave poison laying around or feed a dog to... something that eats dogs. They wanted to see a yard and a loving family. We talked about our "requirements" what would be a good fit for our family. And then we waited. And waited. And waited. It took patience. And perseverance. But we refused to get a puppy. And my boyfriend was stuck on having a golden. Then we got a call that there was a dog that was close to our criteria. A little younger than I wanted. But we went to meet him and as soon as we got him home it was pretty much evident that he was going to live with us for the rest of his doggy life. The volunteers were endlessly helpful, and our dog is the best. Thanks GRRSN!!
