These people definately need to be more educated!! I think the volunteers are much better at breed identification and temperments than the employees! It is one of my biggest pet peeves, they tend to label anything unknown a lab/pit mix and this tends to scare potential adopters away.

For example this girl was labeled a pit mix, adoptees would look at her paper see the word pit and walk away when obviously she has no pit in her!!!


Oh and this girl was called a pit bull/lab mix!!!

Can you guess what they call him???....Pit/Shepherd..


It makes me so angry, I always tell potential adopters to not take their word on the breed and always give my own opinion.
