Paws and Claws Pet Shelter

Very rude and unprofessional. There's nicer ways to say no than to make me feel like a pos for not being able to take my mom's cats who passed away a week ago. A simple "we're full right now but have a nice day" goes a long way.

The original two are back in indiana with my dad and we kept the puppies cause we are better equipped to take care of them. So in total we now have 14 dogs. 3 are ours and 11 are puppies. We tried rehoming the first two. We made posts, had a mini photoshoot and took pictures, no one was repsonding. So it got to the point where we had to call shelters. This one was luckily able to take one in. Upon arriving i was met with a friendly demeanor that quickly turned sour. The attitude and judge

You could definitely tell paws and claws made being in a kennel feel like not such bad of a place to have to be momentarily for the guests that stayed thier. Thier wasn't rages of barking and doggies jumping on cahes and fences begging for attention or to be let out.
