Rebecca is awesome. Dropped my dog off for the first time. Check in was easy and we were all set…read more As I left I heard her outback with the dogs. She was actually playing with them. She told the dogs how pretty they were. Today our dog ran to the door and pointed out the leash. She couldn't wait to go back, and we couldn't wait to go ski. This area has needed a dog daycare. I'm so glad that they got such a good one.

PROCEED WITH CAUTION!!!!!!…read more We adopted a an 8-month old dog from this place. The write up was everything were looking for: Affectionate, non-aggressive, good with people/kids/cats. PROS: Dog was very friendly and goofy. CONS: First red flag: none of our references were checked! They called our vet but Our vet does not know us personally nor know how we care for our dogs on a day-to-day basis. Doesn't seem like the best way to find the right owner for a dog. When we visited the dog the day we took him home, he had a bleeding, jagged dewclaw on one of his feet that he kept licking. When we pointed this out, Joy looked surprised and clueless. The day we got the dog home, he was having non-stop diarrhea. When we called Joyful Rescues, they did not seem surprised. Said he probably had giardia (a harmful parasite) from drinking from their pond. Someone dropped off medication in our mailbox and frustrated and concerned, we made a vet appointment. WHY ARE THEY LETTING THEIR RESCUES DRINK FROM A PARASITE-INFESTED POND??????????? Later in the day, we noticed the dog's eyes kept getting pus in the corners. Another medical problem that was overlooked or intentionally not disclosed when we picked the dog up. Again, we were upset, but were willing to take him to the vet and pay to get him treated. It took four phone calls to find a vet who could see him immediately (ghiardia can be severely harmful if not treated quickly). However, we discovered this dog had food aggression and toy aggression, and snapped, growled and bared his teeth at my husband several times. Obviously, Joyful Rescues Claimed he had no aggressiveness without doing an EASY test on food and toy aggression. We've had a severely aggressive dog in the past which bit a child, but we never gave up on him although our lives were severely limited because he couldn't be around new people, animals nor could be boarded. We chose this dog very much based on the advertisement of non-aggression. Our hearts were shattered when we made the choice to return him. The woman at Joyful Rescues could not hide her anger/annoyance with us. This experience was heart-breaking and guilt-provoking, and we haven't stopped crying over this dog. It's our experience that Joyful Rescues does NOT do everything they should to be sure their animals are healthy and "as advertised". If you are looking to adopt an animal, we strongly advise taking what joyful rescues says with a grain of salt and do your own homework and research. There are some good dogs there, but we don't believe they are being cared for very well.

We put in an application to adopt a cat through JR. it did take a few weeks, but I feel like they…read morethoroughly vetted our application. They were forthcoming about our kitty being extremely shy and scared. Our adoption went off without a hitch and we felt well informed. Our kitty has been with us for a month and because we were well informed we took things at her pace; she has completely warmed up to us and is the perfect addition to our family
