Provided by YP.comIF YOU CARE ABOUT ANIMALS PLEASE GET DOWN HERE AND RESCUE ONE OF THEIR ANIMALS. THIS PLACE IS APPALLING. I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE SEEN ANY PLACE AS BAD AS THIS. HERE IS MY STORY:
I FOUND A LOST DOG AND MADE THE MISTAKE OF TAKING HER TO THIS SHELTER. I ASKED THEM TO CONTACT ME IF SHE WASN'T ADOPTED. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD NOT CALL ME BUT I COULD CONTACT THEM. I DID NOT TAKE HER OR WOULD I TAKE ANY ANIMAL TO A SHELTER JUST TO HAVE THEM KILLED. WHEN I CALLED THEY SAID HER TIME WAS UP AND IF I WANTED HER I HAD TO COME PAY FOR HER RIGHT NOW. WHEN I WENT TO PAY THEY SAID I COULDN'T PICK HER UP UNTIL THE NEXT DAY AS SHE NEEDED TO BE SPAYED. I COULDN'T LEAVE WITHOUT SEEING HER. THE POOR BABY WAS SHAKING LIKE CRAZY. THERE WAS ONLY THE CEMENT TO LIE DOWN ON, NO BLANKETS OR COVERS OF ANY TYPE. THE DOG RUNS WERE LOADED WITH RUNNY POOP. I DIDN'T SEE ANY FOOD ANYWHERE.
I WAS TOLD WHEN I PICKED HER UP THE NEXT DAY I WOULD HAVE TO GO TO THE SURGERY UNIT. WHAT I SAW WAS SO UNREAL I CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO DESCRIBE IT TO YOU, BUT LET ME TRY. THE CAGES WERE FULL OF SHAKING ANIMALS, SOME GUY HAD HIS FEET UP ON SOME KIND OF DESK DUE TO THE FACT THERE WASN'T ONE CLEAN SPOT ON THE GROUND. THE ENTIRE FLOOR WAS COVERED WITH URINE AND POOP AND I MEAN THE ENTIRE FLOOR. EACH AND EVERY ANIMAL WAS SHAKING LIKE A LEAF. THE PLACE WAS PURE FILTH AND THE SMELL ALONE WOULD MAKE ANYTHING SICK. WHEN I ASKED FOR MY GIRL THEY SAID SHE DID NOT WEIGH ENOUGH TO BE SPAYED AND I WOULD HAVE TO BRING HER BACK ANOTHER TIME, NEVER WOULD SHE GO BACK THERE (she was spayed at a vets office) WHEN SHE WAS FINALLY IN MY ARMS SHE WAS SHAKING SO MUCH I COULDN'T HOLD ON TO HER. WHEN WE GOT IN THE CAR SHE WENT UNDERNEATH THE DRIVERS SEAT AND STAYED THERE. IT TOOK ME OVER AN HOUR TO GET HER OUT OF MY CAR. AT LEAST THIS STORY HAS A HAPPY ENDING.
THE PEOPLE THAT WORK AT THIS PLACE COULD CARE LESS ABOUT ANIMALS. ONE WOMAN WHO WORKS THERE HAD TO TAKE A SMOKE BREAK WHEN THE LINE WAS OUT THE DOOR. SHE JUST DECIDED HER CIGARETTE BREAK WAS MUCH MORE IMPORTANT. OF COURSE ALL OF US ANIMAL LOVERS STAYED AND WAITED ON THIS WOMAN TO COME BACK IN.
THIS LITTLE GIRL BECAME MY 7th DOG. HURRY AND TAKE A DOG OR A CAT OUT OF THIS HORRID PLACE. I PROMISE YOU WON'T BE SORRY.
