Very happy that I found Adopt-a-dog in Armonk for my first time adopting a dog. I had been searching online for some time and came across a 9 month old puppy up for adoption who was a mix of my two favorite breeds. After reading her thorough description, I selected that I was interested in adopting and I was contacted by Lauren from the shelter within an hour or so. She was very quick to ask what questions I had and when I would like to set up an appointment for meeting the dog. After filling out the adoption application, we were able to set up a meeting appointment the very next day and as soon as I met the dog, I knew we would be the perfect fit for each other. I was excited to learn about the foster to adopt program which let me take our dog home that same day, with the comfort in knowing that if for any reason things did not workout after a week or so, that they would gladly take the dog back (although I knew that everything would be great). Before leaving with our dog and all of her vet information, Lauren provided us with a full bag of food, a crate and even one of our dogs favorite toys.Overall, this adoption center really cares about all of the dogs under their watch and who they end up with for the rest of their lives.And 5 days later, our dog Sierra and us already feel like we have been family forever.

Adopted our Tony there last Sunday. They were very quick and thorough. Did an initial call and then a house tour to make sure the pup had a good space. The application is very long but it’s to be expected. Probably the only adoption place that I felt like got to know me and didn’t just hand me an animal. The facility seems like they love dogs and are doing everything they can. Loved everything. Had some bad experiences with other adoption places, so working with them was refreshing!

The staff here is condescending as hell. I filled out the 15 page application to the best of my ability at work. I spoke to them on the phone. The first time they apologized for coming off difficult. I said it was fine I’d work around them. Then they started their vetting process which I whole heartedly agree with. I forgot another previous vets info. I said I was getting that info for them to call the vet that very second. She was being so condescending and mean so I called her out on it and I guess she thinks that she can speak to people any kind of way but you’re not going to bully me. Then to de-escalate the conversation I called her “lovely dear” and I asked her to relax many times. And she took it as me being demeaning then said I wasn’t a good fit. The dog would’ve had such a comfortable long life with my little family. I wish all the best to those dogs and hope they get wonderful families. But these are the kind of people that will prevent many dogs from finding truly loving families.

Both my husband and i have tried calling both numbers that are listed on their website. one is out of service and one keeps ringing with the inability to leave a voice mail. we would like to have come in and visit some of the adoptable dogs but are discouraged by this.

They had a stand at the stamford health expo. One of the staff significantly hurt my wrist. I was petting a dog when a huge metal tent hit my wrist so hard and the staff who apparently had seen me there and decided to hit me on purpose yelled at me “you have to move.” It would have been nice if he yelled at me before hitting me so hard. He was in my back I couldn’t see him. So much for being able to meet the dogs. I am so glad no children nor dog got hurt, but the behavior and rudeness of the staff concern me for these poor dogs.

They don’t respond, and office always closed. They get donations I’m sure the staff gets paid but the person who runs it my need to be investigated. It’s a shame the animals suffer

Terrible Experience!! Bent over backwards to Adopt a Young or Adult from this Rescue and was met at most steps with obstacles from the Adoption Director, Kristen. It was a dizzying experience and blamed the miscommunication with the last Vet on me, rather then going back to my Application or listening to what were like many Texts and Emails. DO NOT APPLY. You wont get anything but pushback. Go to the Rescues who are willing to not only be helpful in their process, but cant wait for you to find your best Match. One Star for sheer aggivation.

Beware of this Adoption Organization. They will drill you, put you thru hoops, only to find the one thing that was very clear from the beginning if only listened to the Owner of the previous pup, Me.Kristion, Director of Adoptions, is so anal and difficult, just trying to save a young or adult dog was like trying to keep information from her. I jumped thru every obstacle, stressed out, and finally she said, um, No. Cant Adopt. I was beyond words. Would never refer this Rescue nor the ridiculous waste of time with this woman who doesnt really care about how well you would provide for a Dumped or Street Dog. Do not use this Organization, Dont Donate, and dont seem interested or you will be on a Hamster Wheel. I went to another Rescue and so happy with an upcoming welcoming Adoption. Just Dont!!

Disappointed. They asked me questions regarding my pet and no one returned calls or emails. Just left me hanging.
