Our family is forever indebted to Matties Place. Thanks to their generosity & dedication, our lovely Lab has finally found his happy place. A year ago we were at a terrible cross-road (actually considered euthenasia). Thankfully, their amazing team worked tirelessly on his behaviour issues to safely rehome our sweetie. They have also thoughtfully kept us up-to-date on his progress and the amazing outcome

Denise is a very careful caring coordinator. Her assessment of my dog was spot on. My dogs adoption process went very smoothly. She has certainly found her calling as Matties Place is a very well run agency and shes saving the lives of some very deserving dogs (and cats) .

It was heartbreaking to surrender our dog but he could not exist in our home any longer with our senior dog and his sibling brother, who was at our house almost every day. He just felt like he had to protect everyone but was aggressive when fear and insecurities kicked in. When anxiety and the fear kicked in, his response was to bite. The last bite incident where he bit my daughter and would not let go was the straw that broke the camels back for us. That is where Matties Place came into the picture and took our dog in and provided him with a great foster home and the care and training he needed. Matties Place genuinely cares for each dog and want each dog to go to a home where they will thrive. Although I wanted to know his progress every step along the way, I knew I had to stand back and let the process follow its course and be confident that our dog would be adopted into a home that could give him the environment he needed to take control of his fear and anxiety issues. Denise and the volunteers at Matties place rose to and exceeded the expectations for our dog. So much so that I was informed that our dog has come a long way and is now a totally different dog and was adopted into the best possible home ever, with his foster mom. Now I know that our dog will have the best life possible and will get all the love and attention he can ever imagine from his new forever person and brother. Thanks to all the people who have been involved in this process. You truly are amazing people who have the animals, that you take in, best interests at heart. To my little fella, I will always love you and think of you often but I know that you are going to have a wonderful life and the best home.
