Really sad and heartbreaking experience for me. There is no adoption process and every time I ask there is no clear answer. I tried to adopt a dog and, first, the rule was I needed to walk the dog 2 times then and after I had done that I was told I needed to continue walking the dog for a week, then after I had done that it was that I needed to speak with Margarita in-person only during a one-hour time window but once I got there she was gone. After hours and days of rearranging my schedule to fit their requests I have given up any hope that they will allow me to adopt the dog, which is so heartbreaking because I have grown to adore the dog and it breaks my heart to know he is still in that poorly run facility for no reason. The volunteers are friendly but not knowledgeable about the adoption process or how the shelter works, everything is up to the two managers/owners. The owners are rude, inconsiderate and poor managers. The facility is poor and very sad.

Where should I even begin. In 2015 I adopted an older, overweight dog that was suffering from arthritis. I visited her 3 times and they were very reluctant to give the dog to me even though she was in the shelter for over 3 years. Unfortunately the dog died of cancer in September 2018 so I came back go the shelter in November 2018 to look for another dog to save from the shelter. I found a true angel, but again they started to give me excuses as to why I couldn't adopt the dog. I visited 4 times already and they still don't want to give me the dog and gave several excuses \the dog is shy / the dog is uncomfortable / the dog can't be trusted\ they also told me I need to continue to visit her on a daily basis and if they feel comfortable I can maybe have the dog. The funny thing is that on their website they say that they want this particular dog to be adopted her name is \Minnie\ but not to me apparently. There are some very good people volunteering at the shelter, but unfortunately there is one woman that decides who can adopt and she is uneducated, arrogant and disrespectful. The other volunteers try to convince her that we should be able to adopt Minnie but to no avail, the fact that I already adopted a dog once before from them, that I visited Minnie 4 times already doesn't change a thing. Too bad that due to one spiteful woman some dogs can't get away from the shelter to a warm and loving home. Luisa Barroso wants people to give money, food and their labor, but actually adopting a dog is apparently a bridge too far.

What's not to love? For any animal lover this is your place. But don't come empty handed, bring a bag of food or cat litter. It's always a help. If you have some spare time, take a dog to a walk.
