  Love P.A.W.S.

  I have nothing but kind words to say about this place. I have adopted a pitbull and a kitten from here and it was the best decision I could have made. They rescued my dog Milo (formally Crayton) from horrible conditions. He weighed 45 lbs and had practically no hair at all. They assured me that it was all from neglect and nothing that could be contracted from my other 2 dogs and 3 cats. He now weighs 95 lbs and has a full shiny coat. He is amazing thanks to the friendly and caring staff at P.A.W.S. They are very nice and helpful and want what is best for their animals. I highly recommend if searching for your new furrever baby!

  HORRIBLE STAFF

  There are a few nice ladies that work at PAWS, and I adopted an ADORABLE pup from them just yesterday! However, the younger women that work there are racist pieces of crap. Today is Tuesday. I went there last week on Thursday, and I found an adorable Chihuahua that I wanted to adopt. The desk worker said that they needed until Monday to allow for the dog's owner to come back to claim her. She said that she would add a note on the pup's file that I was interested, and that I could come back yesterday to adopt her. I returned yesterday to adopt the puppy, and was completely ignored while the desk person assisted all of the Caucasian customers. I went on to the dog holding area to discover that the puppy had been removed from the system, and was not in her cage. I found another puppy that I would like to adopt, and proceeded to the front desk to fill out the paperwork. When I inquired about the puppy that I originally wanted, the same desk person told me that the puppy was claimed by her owner over the weekend. I went ahead home, and when I returned to pick up my new puppy after she was spayed, I saw a Caucasian couple picking up the puppy that I originally wanted. I was lucky to find such a cute smart puppy to adopt, but the employees here are trash. This won't discourage me from adopting in the future, but my experience was horrible!

  Awful staff

  Went looking for a new puppy and treated like garbage by an employee named Cheyanne. She was in the middle of yelling at another employee when I walked in and acted as if it was a chore to help me. I asked to speak to her supervisor named Britney. Might as well have been talking to a brick wall. I will never recommend this place to anyone. In fact, I plan to go out of my way to encourage people to stay away from these awful people.

  Are not to eager to help or adopt out

  There are some here at the Anderson Co. SC P.A.W.S. that are very friendly and helpful, but; there are others that are just rude when calling for information on an animal and just act as if they do not care if they get adopted or not; not friendly and not eager at all to try and help you find the perfect pet for you or a family member. It's honestly sad too because of the number of pets there that need good homes and because of overcrowding. I do believe that not everyone needs or deserves a pet companion, but thise that do, need to be treated kindly upon wanting information about a pet companion. Step it up P.A.W.S. no one wants a happy and exciting time to be a rude and uncaring experience!

  Rude and Smart@$$

  I recently had to take 4 cats that I could catch to PAWS. one cat started hanging around had kittens and turned into 9 cats over a period of a year. I struggle with feeding them and I don't want the 9 to turn into 1000. I love animals and felt sorry for them but enough is enough and I had to consider taking them to PAWS. I already felt bad about it and the first thing the lady did was be a smart*** and say so how many cats you got. I told her and she said so your the crazy cat man right? So I cussed her and said let me outta this damn place. I know they have a rough job but if you cant do it and be respectful then get another one. No need to be rude. I will never go back and I don't recommend anyone else to. She was a rude B***H. Has a desk in that smelly office in the pet drop off area. Hope she rots there. I just brought the cats back home. I may try Greenville, I cant keep them or afford to fix them..i have to do something...thanks a lot PAWS.
