Had a great experience today, their guests are constantly changing. Found a little 7 week old girl cat, that had only gotten in about 15 minutes before we arrived

I had saw a puppy on the website and just knew I needed her to come home with me. I showed up the next day right as the shelter was opening, asked to see her, and immediately knew she was meant for me. Her name was Navy but it changed it to Nova and now she’s my little sidekick coming on all kinds of adventures with me! She’s made my life drastically better in just the last month!

Amazing staff! When we got our cat 6 months ago they did a wonderful job of providing us with the necessary details and even gave us a scratching post, small bed, and toys as well. Great experience and would go back again when the time comes.

I can't imagine an organization with as many caring individuals as those in the Animal Rescue League, I had adopted a sweet kitten. It is evident through their handling of the animal's care these are people who genuinely wish the best for them. I also appreciated the transparency from the staff, you can tell they genuinely care for the animals and want them to leave in the healthiest condition or leave with someone equipped to care for them. Here is my kitty who's growing up to be a very goofy and adorable cat.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

A lot of veterinarians will give you a payment plan that doesn't sound very expensive you can even put an ad on Craigslist a lot of people would do it for free to help you or you can look on YouTube for how to do it yourself with the right tools if you have the capability I don't know what it entails in it but I used to cut my dog's nails you just got to look for the bloodline is like a vein in there or you can just cut the tips like I used to do

We adopted our cat here and the process was very fast. Maybe dogs are a little different. We arrived, took a survey about our lifestyle to match with certain cats, and then met the animals. Once we chose our cat we left with her after some easy paperwork. The whole thing took about 45 minutes. Give them a call for more info, they are very friendly.

If youre interested in service animals you should look for organizations that specifically train animals for whatever your needs are. The animals at ARL Boston are pets, and do not have the special skills to qualify as service animals.

What is the price to have a male puppy neutered on the spay wagon?

Betty Baylies | Aug 31, 2018
Juanita Quiles | Aug 31, 2018

I REALLY CAN'T ANSWER THAT QUESTION. THE ONLY THING I SAY ABOUT THE ANIMAL RESCUE LEAGUE IS THAT IF YOU ADOPT A DOG OR CAT OR ANY KIND OF ANIMALS FROM THEM, THEY WILL NEUTERED OR SPAY THEM BEFORE THEY GIVE IT TOO YOU. I PERSONALLY THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEAL. IT CAN BE VERY EXPENSIVE IF YOU GO TOO A VETERAN AND HAVE THEM DO IT. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WAS HELPFUL BUT AT LEAST IF THAT'S WERE YOU WANT TO GO, IT'S THE BEST PLACE TO OBTAIN A PET. YOU HAVE TO GO THERE CONSTANTLY IF YOU WANT TO ADOPT A PUPPY. WISH YOU THE BEST ON YOUR FINDING. SINCERELY, NEGRA

I have a question how much do you have to pay to get a dog

Christina Arevalo | Aug 31, 2018
Daniela Dimitrova | Aug 31, 2018

While this organization does do a lot of charity, they do rely on people adopting covering at least some of the cost of the care for the animal. By the time you adopt they have been taken to the vet, had any resolvable health issues taken care of, and been fed amd sheltered. The amount you have to pay for a dog depends on the age of the dog: Under 6 months: $450 6 months – 7 years: $300 Over 8 years: $200 I believe puppies require a lot more care and vet visits so it costs more to adopt them.
