We just adopted Maisy today after losing our previous rescue last month. These people are lovely - so caring and friendly. And the facility is also great - it’s clean and the dogs are very well cared for. Special thanks to volunteer Laura!

This place is 10 stars!! I reached out to them, thinking one of their cats might have been a cat we lost. They said, "Come on down." Please take a look. Sadly, it was not ours. Our son is Autistic and was so down when our Cats took off from a recent move. We sent down and looked at this beautiful tabby. We were in love, and so was the cat. Please, if anyone can donate, food, time, or money. This shelter rescue is 1,000% worth everything.

We had such a great experience when we found and adopted our new Golden Retriever, Gigi. The volunteers worked patiently with us as we spent time getting to know Gigi. They were informative and very helpful. This is a great place to look for your next "Forever Friend" and it is a place worthy of donations.

VERY disappointing experience!!! 3 days ago we found a stray dog with no dog tag and have been trying to find the original owner but have had no luck yet. The chip he has is registered to the breeder and they don't have info on who they gave/sold the dog to. When I brought him in to Friends For Life Animal Rescue, they read his chip again and reached out to the breeder to double check the situation. We sat there for about 15-20 mins. During that short wait time, the dog barked for a minute or two at ONE dog that was getting adopted. When the lady was done talking to the breeder, she came out and told me they would not take him in because he was barking and they didn't want to stress out the other dogs in the back. This is SUPER disappointing. The dog is also stressed having been away from home for a few days now, how do they expect him to not bark. They didn't even give him a chance or do any kind of real assessment and denied him after sitting out in the front area for a few minutes.

We went to Friends For Life not really knowing what to expect. We had just list our 2 little sweethearts at the end of last year. Having our Kiska a Yorkie Poo and little sweet Ginger a tiny Chihuahua for almost 15 years our hearts were broken. We heard such wonderful things about Friends For Life and stopped by to see what they were all about. Very nice reception and informative volunteers and employees! Rex took my brother and me to look at their fur babies. Rex specifically took us to see Wylie. A very adorable small black male sweetheart. Full of energy and LOVE! Rex thought Wylie now named Nikki would be a nice fit for our family and home. And Rex was right! Nikki is so loving sweet and happy little guy. We are so blessed to have Nikki! Thank you Rex and all of you who helped us ❤️ adopt our adorable lil guy Nikki.
