Olga was terrified when I first met her but since I got her home she hasn't stopped and has also become affectionate to me. So HAPPY about that!!

I lost my younger pup to Cancer and my older dog, Luke, was Lost. Already high on his list, Luke became more protective of me - has always been my self appointed protector. Had some issues at the County Shelters with the people around as we did Meet-n-Greets. Was ready to give up, but the Gentleman at PAWS monitoring the Meet-n-Greet listened to me and seen Luke's closeness to me and took his time and a few extra steps to get Luke and the new dog to interact. Was given go ahead to take new dog home for 3 days. All went well and the two dogs are starting to play together even more. I have adopted the new Pup who I renamed Dexter People at PAWS were very Nice, took time to explain everything, and like I said, gentleman doing Meet-Greet was Fantastic, knowledgeable, and understanding. Should I ever want another dog I think I'm starting Here at PAWS .

Denied adoption because we keep our animals outside while at work instead of inside in a kennel. They think, after a dog has slept all night in a kennel and then is waken up for breakfast and put right back into the kennel all day, is better than having a nice big pen outside with a custom built dog house, specifically made so that they are out of the elements. They way they spoke to my father made us both feel like we are abusive or neglect animals. So a dogs life would be better to be locked in a kennel all night and all day and having a few hours to explore and exercise just to be put back in the kennel for bedtime. When we get off of work we would let our previous dogs out of the nice big pen and let them roam the 1 acre yard until they wanted to come inside or , guess what? Go back into their pen because it's a comfortable place for them. All our previous dogs lived this way and never had any major problems and all died due to old age. UPDATE: Adopted a 3 and 1/2 year old cattle dog (obviously not from LakeShore because they think a dog wouldn't want to be outside) who loves to be outside in our yard. She would rather go into the pen, outside, than to go inside and be in her kennel all day. She is helping our puppy with her separation anxiety as well. Thanks for absolutely nothing LakeShore Paws.

The staff were knowledgeable about the 3 dogs we were considering and offered us a lot of insight to select the best match to our current dog and our family. They sent us with medical records and transition food and were extremely responsive, friendly and helpful. We are extremely happy with our new family member!

I got my dog Oreo from there I think almost 2 years now. My apartment complex has A LOT of breed restrictions and I had been looking for months for a dog. it seemed like every shelter I went to didn't really care for real about their animals or finding home for them. Because of COVID I was hit with excuses like I couldn't meet a dog before I applied for one, or even though their add said they were an acceptable breed for my landlord they actually weren't. This place was right around the corner and I wish I came there sooner. As soon as I met Oreo I knew he would come home with me. He is the perfect dog and I couldn't ask for anyone better. He literally makes my life better and it's all because of this place. They let you keep the dog for a few days before you actually pay for them which I liked because I needed to see how he would do with my cat. and because he was heart worm positive they took care of his tests and medicines until he was clear of it. I couldn't have asked for a better place or a better dog. He's the most well behaved, quiet, protective dog and I cherish every moment with him!
