I, too, wish I could give them 0 stars! My kids chose a puppy. We were told he had no other applications as of that minute, and we were the first. She also said we would get to decide yes or no if our application was approved, and we would be the FIRST family allowed to adopt him. We filled out the application, waited 2 days, then were told he was given to the SECOND family that applied for him AFTER we did! When I asked what was wrong with our application, they said nothing was wrong! They were very unapologetic and said they don't adopt on a "first come, first served" basis, but rather wait until they have 2 applications and then choose between the two! The reason they gave me for giving the puppy to the second family was the other people said they ONLY wanted THIS puppy, SO THAT'S WHY THEY GOT HIM!! Never mind that they weren't the first ones to request him! Of course the shelter said they were more than willing to let us adopt a DIFFERENT dog...since we already had an application in. Really? Like we want to support you now? Almost sounds like bait and switch! WHAT HORRIBLE BUSINESS PRACTICE!
