Default Adoption Process - Very Fustrated

As most of you know I am trying to adopt another Yorkie named Bella from a local Rescue Group. I am getting really frustrated as the last thing I heard from them was last Saturday stating she would possibly be spayed this Tuesday or this coming weekend. I said great please keep me updated on next steps.


Well I have heard nothing since. I was told that I was told that she had a lot of interest but I was the one they wanted. I sent an email to the group on Tuesday asking if she was spayed and how she was doing. Also asking about when I would be able to officially adopt her. I sent a follow-up email late last night since it has been over 24 hours with no response. Still nothing. I even tried calling the number on their Facebook Page but there was no answer. I chose not to leave a message.


I am trying not to be a pest but I need to make sure my home is in order before she comes home like getting her supplies since I don't have a harness that fits her and some other items. Additionally, I would like to take a couple days off work to help assimilate her to my apartment so I need to know what is going on.


I am really frustrated with the lack of communication. They are having an event on Sunday that I am planning on attending and hopefully I can finally talk to someone in person about the issue. The rescue group has great reviews online so I don't know if it is just me or what is going on.


At this point I am still applying for other dogs since I can't guarantee what will happen. I really want Bella as she is adorable and got on well with Thumper but I am starting to not like this rescue group. Additionally, after talking to a Vet Tech she alleviated a lot of my concerns about her walking issues.


I am not a patient person so I am trying not to send another email or try the telephone number again because I don't want them to think I am pestering them. BUT I really want to know what the next steps are in the adoption process.


The other yorkie I was thinking of adopting the owner decided not to surrender him. That rescue group is further away so I don't have a lot of time to make the trip out there and by that time I can get out there the ones I have been interested in are already adopted.
