Be VERY wary of this agency. We adopted a dog for my mother from them, who the foster woman told us was "low energy and easy to walk". As my mother is older we thought this sounded like a great fit. However, when she got the dog, he was the complete opposite. On top of that, he had a broken tooth, bad dental infection, and a broken paw which should have been caught on his intake. They never mentioned anything about these issues, not that this would have necessarily deterred us from adopting him. But, it means they either 1) didn't bother to look at the dog upon receiving him and let him be in pain the whole time they had him or 2) knew he was in pain/injured and allowed him to remain as such until they could adopt him. My mother ended up spending ~$1,000 to get the dog treated. After few days, she ended up having to return him, as he as very high energy and not at all good at walking (pulled, attacked other dogs he saw) and we became very concerned he would cause my mom to fall and be injured. When we returned him they were completely unapologetic and the foster simply said "well I managed to walk him". I feel that they did not properly treat the dog while it was in their care and knew they were lying about the dog just to get rid of him. It's a shame, he was a good dog overall, but he should have been placed in a home where someone could handle him. I honestly would never consider adopting from them again, and I worry the animals in their care are not being properly assessed health wise and being neglected.
I've had a really bad experience with Paws and Prayers with one specific foster and when I asked to communicate with someone about it they said they were on the board and that they were all volunteers so there was no one I could talk to about the poor treatment my family received. I am really concerned about the lack of accountability for how representatives for this organization treat people. My heart goes out to anyone else who has had this experience since it seems like there are no options for us to address the issues. The sad part is that my experience with another foster was amazing but this latest experience has really made me question the organization.
Been Helping since I was 13 and I'm 17 now. By far the best rescue I have hove helped at hands down!
What a life changing experience being part of a an amazing rescue. Paws N Prayers has great volunteers great fosters and wonderful pets for others to adopt to be part of their homes.
