Bridge To Home Animal Rescue

"I wanted to share my experience with Bridge to Home Animal Rescue for anyone in the Pittsburgh area who may be considering adopting through them. I’ve had animals from rescues my entire life and have always been a big advocate for adopt, don’t shop. Unfortunately, my experience with Bridge to Home was by far the worst I’ve had with a rescue organization. The people I dealt with were incredibly rude, unprofessional, and dishonest. Issues arose with the dog I had adopted less than a week earlier, and I felt the dog had been misrepresented by the foster during the adoption process and the adoption agreement and its terms. What was particularly disappointing was the lack of accountability and willingness to work through the situation. Rather than being met with understanding, I experienced dismissive communication. I don’t want to discourage anyone from adopting or supporting animal rescues. I’ll always advocate for rescue animals, but I also believe organizations should be held accountable for how they treat both animals and adopters. After speaking with others following my experience, I’ve also heard similar concerns. I recognize that some people may have had positive experiences, but I wanted to share mine so other potential adopters can do their research and make an informed decision. I genuinely wish I had looked into the organization more before adopting."
