Review for Illinois Birddog Rescue Inc, Wood Dale, IL, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

Today we applied to adopt a beautiful special needs dog. A person named Lisa called within 15 minutes to speak to us, asked if we are a gay couple (we are) was friendly & she was unconcerned about the distance to our home UNTIL we replied we are Republican (which is a very strange question). She then replied sorry we're going to pass on you adopting and then hung up on us.

Your kidding me? No where on Petfinder or the rescue website does it list that Republicans need not apply or is it because we are a gay couple?

As a person involved in rescue I am very ashamed of this rescue, they denied a special needs dog a home, who has been in foster care since last November, due to politics. This rescue obviously believes they and ONLY people like them have the cornerstone on loving animals, you lost great home today.

I'm happy to share any details if someone doesn't believe this actually happened.
