In September I lost my Shih Tzu and desperately want another one. Put in applications for at least 7 dogs. Got glowing reviews from my vet and references too. Always the same response, dog was adopted. Starting to think this site is a scam. Even thought of age discrimination, as my mom would be home during the week with the dog, but after reading reviews, I think its Petfinder. Guess I'll try to save my money and BUY the dog I want, I'm done with these shelters.
