Number one, it's insanely unprofessional to have the staff of your business leave positive reviews to negate all the other bad reviews on here. I'm guessing she probably doesn't care but hey, that's reality for you.

Went in with my boyfriend and was incredibly off put by the attitude of Gloria and how condescendingly rude she was. Look, I get it, handling and dealing with animals all day has to be incredibly time-consuming and labor intensive, but the enclosures we saw were very over-crowded and dirty. Housing that amount of animals in a place that doesn't have the space for all of them like that can't be good for their welfare.

She seemed incredibly intent on not wanting to let anybody adopt a pet there at all, making it abundantly clear that she believes you are stupid and incapable of taking care of animals humanely and that apparently everyone just keeps throwing them away like they're nothing. Or she has a martyr complex, I feel like it's kinda both. Not shocking that they're in a desperate need for volunteers all the time . :/

But yeah, the other negative reviewers are right: I get the mission and understand what they're trying to do but it's not okay to treat people like that and expect them to be okay with it. You can vet people to make sure they'd be a good fit for your shelter animals and still treat them with respect. (Eventually, we just ended up at the antique store across the street, which was awesome btw.)
