This woman, Cheri, claimed to have a red somali cat to adopt, sent me pictures, confirmed that the cat was available one hour before I went to her house, and wanted a $200 cash-only "adoption fee", to which I agreed.

When I arrived at her house, she presented me with a very skittish, gray, common house cat, claiming that it was the red somali that she had pictured on her web site. When I pointed out that the cat was neither red nor a somali, she became belligerent, claiming that I must be wrong because the house cat was the only "somali" she had. When I reminded her of the pictures of the red cat, she asked me to leave.

This is one weird woman, who, apparently, tries to sell pets that she claims are abandoned or strays, and lies about them in order to make the sale. If you want a pet, contact the Humane Society or a reputable breeder, not AJ's Best Friends.

AJ's Best Friends Rescue is Not a Rip Off

AUTHOR: Old Glory Mediations - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, August 25, 2008

I have had personal experience with AJ's best friends rescue. Ten months previous, my pomeranian ( I have had since law school) was stolen. It was thanks to AJ's best friends rescue that I now have my dog, Beth. She looked identical to my dog but after speaking with Cheri, prior to my adoption, she assured me she was absolutely certain it was not my dog. I had finally decided to adopt a dog when another of my collegue's told me about this dog on the internet. Bobbi (my collegue, another attorney) told me that she herself, thought this dog was Sugar, (my dog that was stolen) as Bobbi had held my dog many times.

After speaking with Cheri, she asked me a multitude of questions, asked me to send pictures, and then we set up an appointment for me to meet this dog which they were calling Princess Beth. I agreed to the meeting, even though Cheri advised me that it could no way be my dog because this dog was spade. I still had my hopes up that she was wrong.

I went to the pick up location, met with Cheri and another collegue and the dog. The dog, Princess Beth, was identical in looks (except for being about 3 pounds lighter) and displayed many of the behavior traits that my dog Sugar had. We bonded rather quickly and I paid for the adoption fee and left with my dog.

I have had my dog Princess Beth now for five months and am extremely happy with the results of that meeting. Many times I thought it was my dog Sugar as they were so close in personality, but this dog is much younger and has a few things different. It did take time to learn the difference but I am extremely grateful and extremely happy.

I simply cannot believe that Cheri would lie to this man because she absolutely refused to lie to me and let me think it was my dog Sugar. I do legal research for a living and have researched this company. They are privately funded in order to assist people with pet adoption. They are honest, loyal and will not tell you something just to make you feel better. Take it from me, I know from first hand experience. I had never met nor heard of this adoption company prior to Bobbi notifying me. I had never met Cheri or her business partner prior to the date that I adopted my dog.

It is my opinion that this gentleman did not actively listen and was upset when he found the cat, which, by the way, is listed on the internet as blue, NOT RED. (I looked.) I feel he should not post something negative for his poor communication skills and if he were to come into my office and become belligerant as he appeared to be, he would be asked to leave also. I've worked with many criminal cases and people who are always involved in that type of lifestyle appear to have poor communication skills. I certainly hope this is not the case for his sake.

I hope this helps. In closing I would like to say that Cheri is one of the most forthright, honest individuals that I have ever met in a professional capacity and AJ's Dog Rescue is the cream of the crop for pet adoption. Should you have any questions you may contact me.

AJ's Best Friends is a great rescue

AUTHOR: Drecky21 - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Saturday, August 23, 2008

I have worked very closely with AJ'S Best Friends in the past four years. This is a great rescue and they are true to their word. AJ'S Best Friends is a legit rescue and works very hard to take in cats scheduled to be euthanized, giving them proper medical attention, and then finding them good homes.
