My Nonprofit Reviews

I think the most important thing I can say on behalf of my experience with Promises is that they responded and responded quickly. I was actively looking for a dog for more than three weeks through Petfinder and Adoptapet and inquired about several dogs prior to adopting from Promises, only to find out after I filled out the application that the dogs had already been adopted or worse, I was never contacted at all. Very frustrating, especially as I had a time constraint within which I was working - my daughter's birthday was at the end of the month and this was to be her present. Promises got back to me within 24 hours and continued to be responsive throughout the process. Promises had the phone number of one of the organizers on the post and I called it immediately and was able to arrange a meeting with the dog and things moved forward from there. I cannot tell you how important that was to me. We adopted Sheena a little more than a week ago and she is just a fantastic dog - hard to believe she was on the street. Mostly likely that is because someone at Promises was working with her. I met and liked Sheena's foster very much and know she must have had quite a bit to do with that, so it is wonderful to know Promises' fosters are loving dog-people. So, to sum up, compared to the other adoption agencies out there, Promises really delivers.
