We adopted our baby, Fraley from a local humane society. We love her to pieces but have had a difficult time with the humane society.
When we went to pick up Fraley she was a mess. Skinny, filthy, nails hadn't been clipped in ages. Which was all pretty shocking to us, since they had had her for over 3 months. She was in a 12 week prison program before we could adopt her.
After we got her home, cleaned up and nails trimmed all was well. Until we took her to the vet the next day. We paid "extra" to have her microchipped while at the humane society. That way we wouldn't have to worry about having it done after we got her. The offered to do it and we paid the "extra" cost for it in her adoption fees. When the vet scanned to double check her id number he couldn't find a chip. So now we have had to pay a second time for a microchip. When I confronted the lady in charge at the humane society I was informed our vet must be stupid to not find the chip and that there was nothing she was going to do to fix the situation or prove there was a microchip originally put in before we left with Fraley.
Anyways, there were more issues we had with them such as her certificate from completing her good citizen classes, it took forever to get that and lots of me calling constantly before they finally sent it to us. We also are dealing with her issues of not being able control her bladder because she was fixed at such a young age.
But through it all we LOVE are little girl and are so glad we adopted her.
Now we are looking into fostering and volunteering with a rescue group. And we couldn't be happier in doing so!
