Review for Vietnam Animal Aid And Rescue- Us, Mobile, AL, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

I feel as though during my short time there the vast majority of the owner's spite was targeted towards female staff, however there was more than enough to go around.

I left because I was simply disgusted at the way the owner spoke to staff on a daily basis, multiple times. I couldn't believe that someone in their position could spit such vitriol towards the people that were running their shelter day and night, and I couldn't believe the lies I was being told about the staff's character. I left due to being completely uncomfortable and hoping that by having some real-world consequences, the owner might think again about treating people like that. There was definitely an issue with the mismanagement of funds, as the owner's house was regularly cleaned using donation money. There were racist remarks, which made building a community network impossible. Then there was the state of the shelter, which you would think would be improving to benefit the animals after 10+ years in operation.

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

Close it down and re-home the animals
