Review for Best Friends Animal Society, Kanab, UT, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I finally had the chance to visit the Sanctuary, and I'm glad I did. I can honestly say that they must hire their staff based on how nice they are, because everyone seemed *earnestly* happy that you were there. (warning if you go: it gets HOT in july.)

Coming from the northeast I'm used to seeing dogs running around in grass, so it was a bit shocking to see them running around on that red earth. My first thoughts were "aren't they hot?" But I volunteered at Dogtown and none of the dogs seemed uncomfortable. It's a little depressing to see how many dogs are there, especially the older ones that are going to have such a hard time being adopted. But I suppose that's better than being in a shelter.

And if you do go stay at the sanctuary.... VOLUNTEER AT THE PIG AREA! It's wonderful!!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

on the actual sanctuary (in Dogtown)

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

uh, change the weather! Other than that, all the office buildings (for humans) seemed in disrepair. I'm glad to see they're not spending money on expensive offices, but still... these were pretty bad.
