There is no reason for someone who sits on their butt in there office to make 6 figures! Raise the actual workers' pay and give those animals more care they need! I have been donating via. Amazon Prime, too as many others. Please get it together Animal Foundation!!!
This place is heart breaking. So many abandon their pets. I was there for 10 minutes and people just giving up on their pets. The CEO should be jailed.
@@michelesmith2620 It's bizarre to me. I worked for a no kill animal shelter long ago, and we were paid next to nothing. Practically volunteers! Dirty, sweaty work. Only one person working at any given time. It was funded through the United Way, and the administrator was a college professor- I have no idea what he was paid. There were no other levels of management. The place was overcrowded, unsanitary, and we had a vet who came in once a week to euthanize the sick or to diagnose certain illnesses. We were working on a shoestring, and we did the best we could. That said, I cannot imagine what the place would have been like if we'd had anywhere near the funding this place has. WOWOW. I can't think of ANY excuses why this place shouldn't be ship shape and running like a top. Ridiculous.
My whole life I worked as a pet professional & seen many behind the scenes 😳... the physical endurance you need everyday to care for these dogs & the training... love & passion is the only reason why you make it through every single day & get paid dog shit
Just finished volunteer training to start here. Wish I had watched this first but the animals need help none the less. I really hope I can do as much as I can in volunteering to make a difference for animals and people who come to and work at the shelter ❤
Adoptions take hours on campus, if one was able to. While an adoption off-site took 30 mins. How are they making this better? Should do an investigation on what ppl have to do to volunteer ? They have to now watch videos and takes quizzes before.
Really? Could you please share more information about this? It seemed 100% fishy the bullcrap that came out of the CEO's mouth regarding the service dog. My impression is that she is so used to lying and getting away with it that she's doing it in this interview, too - all smug and confident doing her usual shtick. It's always about the money.
This is why privatizing animal services is such a bad idea. Lots of money to the CEO and VPs, nothing for the workers or animals. At least if the shelter is run by the municipality there are civil service pay scales and evaluations, etc.
This breaks my heart. I adopted 2 of my dogs from here. I do notice that on the web-site they have alot of dogs listed with "behavioral issues. May not be suitable for adoption." Am glad I got my babies out. This is sad.
I had a problem with the main shelter in Las Vegas, Nevada in the late 1990s. He was picked up with the driver, my relative. He was a small dog. They told me they didn’t have him and I wouldn’t give up. I was there four hours or more. I cried, I begged, I argued, I refused to give up. Only at the very end, they admitted they remove collars on all animals as they go in! After several times walking through the kennels, at long last, I don’t recall who suggested it, but there were outdoor, small patios where the dogs relieved themselves. I asked to go look through there. So we went outside and very quickly, I found him there. They had put him in with all the super size, huge dogs, Great Danes, dobermans, etc. He was cowering and shivering in the “poo patio,” covered, I mean horribly covered in feces. Fortunately, they agreed to let me borrow a carrier! That was the one kindness. I washed and returned it later. I was grateful for that much. So, I did bring him home. The groomer refused to touch him. They were rather rude and cold in fact. They handed me a bottle of dog shampoo, rather shoved it at me, disdainfully. I took him home to my uncle, and I had to hose down the dog in the yard and wash him with the shampoo, myself, before he could be allowed in the house. But, if I had given up, and I had by the way also had to call all over the city for hours on the phone before any of this, calling all over the city. Finally the police promised me if an animal was picked up during a traffic arrest, they would only ever take the animal to the city pound, and they guaranteed that. So I was sure he had to have been there. So I would not give up. But they told me for four hours at the pound that they didn’t have the dog! Only after I refused to leave and I was crying in their faces for hours and begging, did they long last admit they take all the collars with the identification off, as soon as they get there. And they allowed me to look through the collars. I had to go through boxes of ID collars, until I found his. Then I knew he was there somewhere and I demanded to find him. They walked me over the whole facility. We could not find him until I was able to be taken outdoors, to look in the small patios where the animals were to relieve themselves. And that’s where I found him, a tiny little dog put in so cruelly with huge unfriendly dogs and shivering in fear. And he was cowering, absolutely covered with urine and gobs of fecal matter! It was horrible! He had been there for several days. None of it was my fault at all. My uncle had been kept in jail, and I guess he was too ashamed to call me and tell me where he was and what had happened! I had gone to his house and not found him or the dog home, and the security people at his community refused to tell me anything! It was appalling. A kind neighbor saw me there day after day, and came and told me where my uncle was. So that’s when I knew that I had to locate the dog for him. I got him out of jail first. He was only driving erratically out of boredom. He told me he was “driving wheelies,” and I had never even heard of that until then. I was just trying to help. So I was trying to locate the dog for him, which was also my late aunts dog! And the shelter REFUSED to help me, or admit they had him for four hours! I am extraordinarily persistent. Most people would have left, and the little dog would have almost certainly been put to sleep, not long after. They never explained to me why they TOOK OFF the identifying collars the minute all the animals arrive. Not all animals are microchipped. So I can’t understand why they would remove their only ID! They never specifically apologized for LYING TO ME for four hours, insisting he WASNT THERE, when of course he was! I don’t understand how or why shelters can be so cold, cruel, and utterly inefficiently run. Aren’t there laws? If not, maybe there should be laws and regulations to make sure they are run in the best way, and they don’t operate so horribly.
No offense but had he been my uncle then I would have decked him before disowning him for such deliberate stupidity. Popping wheelies with your fur baby in the vehicle then being too ashamed to man up about getting popped by the police?!?! I just had to have my 15 year old mixed breed dog put down last year. I had raised him from birth. He became my defacto only son because my ex-wife and I were never able to conceive. Thank goodness that you were able to find your fur baby! 🙏🥰💯
If I was an executive at a shelter and I saw the animals in this filth and squalor I'd change out of my 2000 suit put on some jeans and help take care of the animals. I'd stay late every night until I could get the situation under control. I'd get volunteers to help. But I love animals and I don't believe in sitting on my fat lazy ass while the animals suffer.
In 2022 this contact issue should not be a problem. Could a national system of automatic texting happen when an animal is scanned? Maybe a similar system to ship notifications? The owner can update phone number online as needed? At least a camera system is needed. Along with a law that considers pet animals as children. Kidnap, report rules apply.
2/19/22...THESE PPL SHOULD HIRE MORE PPL + GET VET TREATMENT 24/7 + GUARANTEED PET FOOD AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY FOR ALL THOSE POOR ANIMALS! I LIVE IN FL BUT I WOULD DEF ADOPT ANOTHER DOG 🐕 IF I COULD DRIVE OUT TO VEGAS + CHOOSE ANOTHER PET!
That CEO doesnt look trustworthy, I wonder if she has just bought a brand new car, or boat or real state, I hope it gets investigated like the pastor stealing from church goers!!!
Why is this being allowed to happen??? There needs to be scrutiny and the CEO's need to be jailed. This is horrendous to see the suffering of th ese animals.
Waiting for a meeting with the board first???? What kind of shenanigansvis that? Where is the outrage? Where is the compassion and care for the animals? This place needs to be shuttered and upper level CEO`s jailed and fined millions of dollars and lose their license.
All they have to do is send someone with experience undercover a few times to find out just what is going on - the city is just as lame as the shelter!!
I'm Jewish but say it all the time: anyone who hurts an animal or sets the stage for neglect? The person should have its very own Auschwitz just for them. I have no sympathy
Yikes. I got my rescue dog from there. I thought the shelter looked really nice? I guess I’m not seeing the behind the scenes? And if the lady missed 2 appointments to come get it, it’s not the shelters fault? Good thing my dog was only there for 12 days before I got him. He’s a wonderful GSD. He’s 1 year old now
Damm yea people got to clean and work hard to take care of the animals and only $14 hr like wow of course they can’t live off that and unfortunately have to work somewhere else. This is sad 😔 I hope the animals life does change for the best and soon.

This place is INFURIATING. Thank you for exposing the situation and for the follow up report.
There is no bigger betrayal than that of abusing, neglecting, exploiting animals.

Exactly! The CEO needs to do some physical work as well if necessary
@@sveronih5376 I don't think she does physical work. But she seems good at excuses
Get a grip you guys, if staff are saying it's bad, it's bad. Just disgusting from so called animal shelter. The CEO is responsible.
We are having such a crisis in animal care.
Someone is ripping the place off. Audit. 6 figures for bosses, just appalling.
We ARE TIRED OF CORRUPTION !!!!
Exactly! Seems anywhere it’s top heavy- the money makers are in it for the $
This place is heart breaking. So many abandon their pets. I was there for 10 minutes and people just giving up on their pets. The CEO should be jailed.
Fix this! HELP THE ANIMALS! Please!!!
SIX figures???? Dang. Animal welfare is lucrative. Ms. Grey sounds like a politician. She's got their responses for questions down pat.
This is very common unfortunately. Not only do they not pay hired workers enough, but they USE volunteers.

The new CEO Hilarie Grey worked on Rory Reid's gubernatorial campaign. Rory is one of Harry Reid's sons.

Rich people stealing money from animals.
Underground pet trafficking ring. Sometimes microchips are removed and they get sent out of state.

These evils will go to hell 😡😡😡. Please get justice for the animals who can’t speak up for themselves 😡
I'm wasting my money on shit that doesn't work. Someone is stealing money from tax payer. Rich people taking tax money 🤑💰.

These animals are in trouble. We need volunteers to hold them accountable. I’m sure many animals have owners.
Talk about...?!!!! Fix is simple: more decently paid employees. Duh!
That is disgusting
This is animal abuse
Them poor animals
Taking a look at discrepancies is not the same as making things right. Talk is cheap.

The executives are getting 6 figures and the animals are suffering. The executives need to be fired immediately.

Call an EMERGENCY BOARD MEETING!!! Some of the animals don't have until late March! Would you like your pet to be stuck in those conditions?
Why is this being allowed to happen??? There needs to be scrutiny and the CEO's need to be jailed. This is horrendous to see the suffering of th ese animals.

Worthless
The SPCA in Vegas was the worst! Inhumane to say the least!
In the meantime, the animals suffer.

so you are vegan right

Regulate puppy mills like the Animal Foundation.
4:55 There it is.
Stop paying them. That meeting will happen over night. Start sueing them for those 6 figures saleries and they will disappear
😭😭
This Grey woman needs to resign
poor molly and all the other animals at this awful place
SHUT IT DOWN. SHUT IT DOWN!!!!!
So tired of excuse after excuse.
It's bad , they don't want anyone dogs also, hello its a shelter
I don’t think as an animal rescuer myself that I wld of helped this girl. That’s just my personal and sad opinion on this story….
Damm yea people got to clean and work hard to take care of the animals and only $14 hr like wow of course they can’t live off that and unfortunately have to work somewhere else. This is sad 😔 I hope the animals life does change for the best and soon.
