    I bought my dog from here, a springer spaniel, I knew he had problems but he was wrongly assessed, but said they can offer a behaviourist if I had any problems.
    I found he had brown teeth and matted hair under his ears when I got home. A lovely dog until he turned on me for no apparent reason. I took the dog back, I had him 3 months. I went back the day after for him as I had arranged obedience training and vet appointment, I wanted their behaviourist too. I was extremely shocked to find that they had someone else coming to buy him already and after a lot of arguing was told to leave. I refused, I took a lot of abuse off them all but managed to get him back after paying them some money. To cut a long story short I have re-homed him with a good family who already have a springer and I took no money for him as I love him and wanted the best for him. I care not about the money. ...................These people were exploiting my dog,not offering my kindness and support as I was expecting. I can prove this is the truth and the whole truth so help me.

    I got our pet over 6 weeks ago from Tameside Animal Shelter, and the staff were caring and helpful, she has taken a while to settle down but she his so loving loyal and funny at times. Shes been a real addition to our family. Thanks for keeping her safe and giving us a great forever pet. When she settles in im hoping to get her a companion as well.

    I recently got a cross german sheperd ,collie from Tameside Animal Shelter and the staff were very helpful, did an home assessment first to see if my home was suitable,and my new dog Jasmin has been wonderful, she was very stressed to begin with and has taken time to settle in, she and i go walking every day, she gives heaps of love and affection and enjoys her treats .We are spoiling her at present as vets says she needs to put on more weight. The staff advised me she was a lovely dog with lots ...

    I wanted to adopt a cat having retired and living on my own. So I visited the Tameside animal shelter 2 years ago now and choose a female cat called Puddles(renamed Blossom). She was very loving and friendly and I knew instantly we would get on alright. She had been in a road accident some time in her life and lost her tail but that didnt seem to bother either of us. Took a couple of days to adjust to a new home and possibly new food but 2 years on and she is happy in the fields where I live and ...

    I dropped a found puppy off at tameside animal shelter, they staff were wonderful and the caring nature was obvious.
    They arranged for me to drop off outside of office hours and were pleasant when I phoned late at night to check she was settled before going to bed.
    Everything about the sanctuary seems excellent

    We adopted our 3 year old Ginger tom Bertie (was Bonnie) in Nov 2008 and now we couldn't imagine life without him. We previously had 2 tortie and white females who lived until19 years of age, then adopted a beautiful silver grey tom aged 16 years whose owners were going to live abroad. Leonard lived for another 3 years before we lost him to cancer. You will understand then why Bertie is such a treasure to us. He had been in the Tameside Animal Shelter for some time before coming to us and ther ...

    I think that everybody here does such a great job, We adopted our cat Thomas about 5 years ago now and i don't know what we did without him.
    We visit the Tameside Animal Shelter regulary as we are currently looking for a dog.

    Tameside Animal Shelter is a fantastic place to go if you are looking for a cat, mine died last year and all of them are neutered and the place is squeaky clean - its the first shelter I have been to where you cant even smell a cat yet there are so many. Great group of people, happy place and the lady who started it is so caring, she will take cats in when everyone else says no. I am starting to give to them each month in apreciation of the job they are doing. Well done everyone, tameside has n ...

    After the death of my 19 year old cat in 2006 we visited Tameside Animal Shelter and found a beautiful ginger tom kitten. The staff were very helpful and gave us plenty of time on our own to view the animals and make our choice which was brilliant and im glad i did so, as our cat Dobbie is now a healthy but mad 2year old.

    Arranged to attend the shelter but had a wasted journey. Nobody was around when I arrived, despite the 'reception' being open yet unstaffed. Spent 15 minutes waiting and could stand the stench of urine and howling dogs no longer.

    i went to Tameside Animal Shelter looking for a 2nd dog around 2 and a half years ago now and found one of the best dogs i have ever had, sumo is a japanese akita, he is so loving and caring i would not be without him, the staff were fantastic and knew alot about all the animals (their behaviour and character) and from looking around i could see maybe the shelter wasn't as new as some places but the standard of care and love the staff put in to the animals is outstanding. Would definitely recom ...

    Tameside Animal Shelter meets my expectations, but can improve on some points in my opinion. I suggest visiting the shelter, but remember to have some other choices of shelters to adopt your animal from, just to be on the safe side. If you see an animal you like, ask if you can take a look at it first.

    Overall a brilliant place to adopt a pet!

    Tameside Animal Shelter is the best place to purchase an animal from, knowing you're giving the cat or dog a second chance

    Very good home, looks after all animals and makes sure their all well and happy. I've been looking around and every animal had food and water. The dog runs are nice and open for the dogs to move about and the cats have a good time in the out door runs.
