My Nonprofit Reviews

Several yrs ago I volunteered to help at an adoption event for this rescue at the Colerain Petsmart. I drove to Ky to help load animals and was aghast at the conditions they were kept in. Dirty outside pens, filthy. Maybe they didn't have as much money then, but is was awful. It took 2+ hrs to load the dogs and get them to Colerain. The dogs were not allowed to have water before we left. It was at least 80 degrees that day and several dogs were left in crates outside the store in the heat. I was not allowed to give them water because they would pee in the vans on the way home. This was torture for those animals. They were outside in the heat for 3 hrs. (I snuck and gave them water anyhow when I was out there alone with them) Those dogs would have gone for more than 6 hrs in the heat without water and no one cared. That's the one and only time I worked for her. I am an animal rehabber and have had animals all my life. But she did not deem me good enough to adopt one of the dogs I felt so sorry for. She should NOT be in this business. I am not saying not to adopt from her, because I feel sorry for the dogs. They desperately need to get away from that place.
