Review for Toledo Area Humane Society, Maumee, OH, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I am a volunteer for the Toledo Area Humane Society and have done so for almost four years.I have participated in different funtions with them working as a volunteer. I have nothing but the utmost praise for this organizations as I have witnessed many things all for the benefit of the animals. The people who work there are people who are there for the sole care and love of the animals and it seems like a paycheck for them is a bonus.The real payoff is the love for the animals that pass thru there and the ultimate high is when an animal is adopted out to a good home. I myself have adopted a dog from there and he has been a great joy in my life.The animal I adopted was there for five months and was a cruelty siezure. This dog could have been a real problem after the previous owners mistreatment. The time at the Humane Society was a prep for a new home. He was treated with love and care and the animal came to realize that not all humans were as cruel as its previous owner.The employees and volunteers coddled and loved the animal even though it was there temporarily until a new home was found.I give all the credit to the people there and the treatment the dog received so that I have a great and loving dog rather then a resentful animal scared to a point of being vicious. This particular branch of the Humane Society deserves the highest praise and should get the recognition as an organization that is responsible for the care and well being of our fur covered friends.After all, the dogs and cats of this world are here for us as much as we are for them. Because of this Humane society there are a great deal of happy dogs and cats and pet owners who would otherwise not have this joy in their life if it weren't for this organization.

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

love and care given to the animals that pass thru there.

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

try to get more people involed in the community so as to raise more money and increase the size to be able to care for more animals.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

plain and simply the time I get to spend with the animals

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

loving and caring Professionals

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

expand and accomodate a larger staff to increase the capabilities of animal care

Ways to make it better...

gas prices weren't so high and I could drive there more often

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

The general public and its mistreatment of animals.

One thing I'd also say is that...

I have always been impressed by the staff and the efforts they take to care for the animals that have been rejected by previous owners
