They ARE NOT anti-cruetly. They will not release/adopt any dog that appears to have pit bull in it, no matter the temperament. Detroit has NO Breed Specific Legislation. They have no right whatsoever to do this!!! They misled a friend into surrendering an emaciated young female pitbull, then she found out they were going to kill her, and she never would have taken her there had she known. All efforts to date have not resulted in the dog being released, even to a qualified rescue. My opinion: Their name is misleading and THEY SUCK!!!

Recently adopted a Scottish Terrier from MACS. Despite obviously working in very difficult conditions, they took considerable amount of care making sure the dog was healthy before they handed him over to me.

This place is a joke, a neighbor took my dog from my yard and brought it here. I then got the run around from everyone here, including Pam, Kelly, and Theresa. I was told even after providing proof of ownership that they were not returning my dog. This was a healthy lovable lab/beagle mix named Bruno that was my daughter's dog. I'm now filling a police report because this money hungry facility wants to make money off my dog instead of giving my property back.

Long wait but it was worth it, i called and they let me come same day, now my Fefe is feeling all better!

My whole family has been adopting from anti-cruelty for years. They only put down animals that are suffering terribly so something must have been dangerously or painfully wrong with the dog in the previous review. We have had many dogs, all who have happy long lives. They keep healthy dogs until they find a home and do a full background check to make sure the dog will fit in to the family well. A VERY reputable organization. Adopt from here over the MHS
