Also about 8 months ago I found their web site when searching for yorkie rescue groups in my area. I used the contact info email and never heard back from them. I brought that up to the gal on the phone, she told me oh that email does not work and acted like it was no big deal and almost like I should have known that. I can't figure this group out,you run and organization and you know the contact email on your web site does not work, yet you don't fix it. While I feel they are taking good care of the pups they have I can't help but wonder why they are so lax about things that could bring them more money, more inquiries and more exposure. |
Wow...that's really frustrating. I can't imagine how many opportunities they probably miss by not having an active email. When I rescued a dog a few months ago, everyone I contacted initially was by email. It was convenient since I was already online on a computer and I could sit and think about the questions I wanted to as, that I probably would have forgotten had I gotten on the phone. It also gave me the opportunity to tell the rescue about myself and my pack of animals. I am guessing I am not alone in this and a lot of people do the same thing when they find animals on Petfinder.
When it comes to something like adopting, there are so many great dogs out there that you pretty much move on when you don't hear back from someone. I'd imagine that this happens a lot if their email isn't working. I guess that would explain why Bitzy and a few of their other dogs have been there for sooo long
