My Nonprofit Reviews

I attended an event called "Pints for Pups" in May 2017 that a friend invited me to. This was an event that benefited two dog rescues, Thulani Program and Silicon Valley Pet Project. When I arrived at the event I wanted to meet the dogs and say hello so I walked into the area where the dogs were. When I first walked in, I was drawn to the senior German Shepherd dogs with the Thulani Program, but I was blocked by Silicon Valley Pet Project's staff and literally directed to their side. They did have very cute dogs, but not dogs that I was drawn to. I want to support organizations, like the Thulani Program, that do truly good work like saving senior dogs. The staff at Silicon Valley Pet Project were so pushy with me wanting me to go to their side that I had to say "no thank you" and go around them to see the senior dogs. I would have gone over to say hello to Silicon Valley Pet Project's dogs, but this pushy experience made me not want to have a thing to do with them. When I reached the dogs at Thulani Program, the poor staff were apologetic and I could tell it was painful for them to have another rescue act this way towards them.

Silicon Valley Pet Project needs to get some manners and treat people kindly. I will never support this organization.
