Review for Caring Hearts Rescue, Springfield, VA, USA
I would avoid this rescue. They do not respond to applicant's adoption requests. You send an application in, they send an automated response and then they never tell you that you are not getting the dog. They claim that they are "all volunteer" and that they don't have the time to respond, I find that unacceptable. Many other rescues keep in contact and let you know the status of the application. CHR foster parents are no doubt wonderful, heartfelt volunteer souls that go the extra mile for these pets. The rescue itself seems to be the weak link. Their attitude toward the people that adopt these little animals is at best without courtesy and at worst downright heartless and rude. When we search for a rescue pet, find one that tugs at our heart strings, apply and wait anxiously, then never hear from them is cruel and heart breaking.
I hope no one goes through what me and my family have gone through at the hands of the administration of this rescue. In my opinion, CHR is probably one of the worst administered rescues that I have ever dealt with and I would never recommend CHR to anyone.
I know the foster parents are kind people with huge hearts but the people in the front office are heartless and cruel (and apparently too busy to send out an email).
Just my opinion of my experience with CHR.
