Pups Place

"They have pups for adoption but you can't just find a pet you want and purchase it. The people are very nice and welcoming though."

"Went to an adoption event today, extremely unorganized, no clear direction on where to go and what to do. We had interest in a particular dog and the person in charge of this dog was kinda rude. We made sure to arrive early, we got our application in first. Had our meeting with the dog for 2 minutes before we were rushed along. Sat in the hot weather for an hour. While waiting we went to look at the other dogs, one of which was a puppy. I approached with my 3 year old. The foster mom told me in an extremely rude tone that "hes already been adopted so don't touch him". Then after waiting the dog we were applying for was announced it was going to another family with no explanation as to why we go passed up on. My husband overheard the woman saying she was going to choose the family by drawing a name out of a hat since there were so many applicants. I'm sad and disgusting I even went to such a show. My son was heartbroken, as am I. Ill never come to this place ever again!!!"

"We had applied to adopt a dog before one of their adoption events and followed their instructions to a t. We printed out all of the paperwork before arriving, stopping on the way to print out necessary materials as we do not have a printer at home. When we arrived at the adoption event, it was chaos. There were many people there who had not filled out an adoption form, let alone brought any paperwork or followed any directions. The rescue volunteers were giving dogs away first come first serve without any consideration of what homes would be a good fit for each dog. The adoption event did not treat the dog's well being as a priority. Had my partner and I not followed the directions and had been there fifteen minutes earlier, we would have gone home with a forever dog. We are an active, outdoorsy couple who work from home and have a yard. Who knows what lifestyles and home set-ups the dogs were entering into, because Lucky Paws did not consider what would be best for the dogs. Furthermore, Lucky Paws said that they would be in touch regarding other dogs that would be available for adoption, and they took down our information. We never heard from them again. We reached out to them through email and through applying for other dogs, and they never contacted us. We ended up rescuing an amazing puppy from another rescue organization, Three Little Pitties, who were wonderful! They were so much easier to work with, more communicative, and took the dogs' best interest into consideration in the adoption process. I would not recommend Lucky Paws."

"This organization does adopt out some wonderful dogs. My sister has a lovely dog she got from this rescue that we adore. However, they are adopting out a dog that is aggressive and has a history of biting randomly. My family returned the dog hoping they would have a professional training work with her or a family that wants an outside only dog. In the post they write the dog isn't aggressive, when they know otherwise. We won't adopt from this organization in the future."

"We were shamed by this organization for returning a dog. We brought home our rescue dog and had trouble. She would not go potty on a leash and we don’t have a fenced yard to let her free range. We became really concerned about her kidneys when she hadn’t gone for 2 days and barely went once a day before then, so we brought her back to her foster home after a week of trying to work with her. They posted her back online and spoke negatively about us and put very passive aggressive statements about our reasons for returning her on the profile.... it was a terrible experience."
