Very disappointed with scraps, I adopted a dog that they have had for 2 months 1/7/19 , I got him 3/10/19. 30 pounds under weight, Can see every rib, spine, and hip bones. I have pictures that I took so I can show before and after I get him to where he should be. I do not care if a dog is " bonded " to another dog ( a pitbull ) , if you can see a dog is loosing weight then seperate dogs and put in separate kennels COMMON SENSE! I feel I RESCUED my new forever friend from SCRAPS and he was not the only excessively skinny dog there. 2 months and 30 pounds under weight :( ... I have a photo of him soon after he was taken in and in that photo taken by someone who posts pictures of animals up for or soon to be up for adoption and you can see in these pictures where my boy is healthy looking and at the weight he should be. I will never recommend SCRAPS , they should be closed down , new people in charge and cleaned top to bottom and disinfected. They need to bring in a Real vet to do check ups and actually attempt to take care of the animals , the staff who does the paper work needs to learn their breeds , they had mine as a Labrador when anyone with half a brain and eyes to see he is full blood German Shepard a breed I have raised many times. The Medical history paper they gave me (while looking right in my eyes and saying their " Vet " did the Vet check and updated his shots ) says in black and white Intake - Non-Vet , that non vet decided my now dog was healthy and normal , how do they know what is normal when they cant even tell a Labrador from a German Shepard? Run from this place. Luckily I work at a feed store and I have personally ran a ranch that gave me the opportunity to do animal rescue for 20 years. I found great homes for the small and large animal I rescued during that time, I saved the lives of many animals and I will get my new friend here back to his weight of 88 to 90 pounds from the 53 he is at now. If i could give SCRAPS negative 5 Stars i would !
