Doing great work to save / rescue puppies and dogs and cats to forever homes

Apparently the owner didn’t like my negative review and flagged it. Well guess what I’m back to warn of the DISCRIMINATION THIS PLACE HAS AGAINST RENTERS. We were looking for a dog and we’re were renting a dog friendly apartment, came here looking for puppies, waited almost 45 minutes trying not to step on the cats running around, watched one fall into a can of paint because they cannot be bothered to secure their animals when doing maintenance, finally got our applications, only to have them thrown out when the owner saw we didn’t own a house with a fence SOMETHING THAT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR LOW WAGE WORKERS. Wouldn’t even meet with us, just asked her employee (who was very nice and understanding) to throw us out. Need more? Look how rude and dismissive she is to negative reviews, look how many people talk about her attitude and how many sick animals come out of here. This woman is why people shop and not adopt. Go to SCPAs, go to PetSmart, go to credited breeders, DO NOT COME HERE FOR YOUR FUR BABIES.

Horrible. And they do euthanize aggressive animals!

I’ve been calling everyday multiple times a day for 2 weeks and NO ONE has answered the phone. I filled out an application 2 weeks ago and no email or call back with an update yet. They don’t take walk-ins so HOW am I supposed to see/adoption an animal if they can’t be reached…?

Hope for life is a great organization! I rescued a momma and her pups and they didnt hesitate to assist while I continued to foster. They are very kind and give attention to all animals in their care. None of the animals are in cages or crates and are very well looked after. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to adopt OR rehome!
