My Nonprofit Reviews

There are so many wonderful rescues in the Dallas Area. I would recommend doing you research before deciding to adopt from this rescue.

We had a negative experience that involved a lot of misinformation and lack of communication.

We were approved for an adoption, but everything went sideways after we met with the foster. We spent a good amount of time meeting with the dog and answered all of the questions they had. We nodded along even though we heard some concerning things from the foster: they religiously watch Cesar Milan, they believe that dogs exist to serve humans, they force their dog to swim with them even though the dog doesn’t indicate that it enjoys it in any way (it “tolerates it and swims to the steps”), and when they first got the rescue they put the dog on a leash and kept pulling it closer when it was scared and trying to get away.

We were told that everyone interested in adopting a dog would get information about a meet and greet. After inquiring about the meet and greet to the foster and the agency we got an email that said that the “Committee” was rescinding their approval for us to adopt without ANY EXPLANATION. We were informed that the “Committee” doesn’t tell volunteers why they make their decisions, but never in 15 years had the volunteer seen that happen.

If this organization turns away two professionals that are animal lovers that are experienced dog owners and could provide a safe and healthy living environment, I can’t imagine what their criteria are.

Pictures posted on Facebook of past adopters either show families or older couples. They rarely adopt to minorities. It definitely appears as if they take a cookie cutter approach to those they choose to adopt to. And, someone with tattoos is apparently incapable of being a suitable dog owner.
