Beagle Freedom Project Reviews

Unfortunately so much potential for good animal advocacy is lost due to the chronic mismanagement, dysfunction, and sometimes outrageously unacceptable behavior of the president and founder. She manages staff with the mindset of a 13 year old mean girl from the Valley. She’s moody and navigates the organization using, not rational thought, but instead her wildly fluctuating emotional compass. Staff are demoralized and always walking on eggshells trying to predict her mood and not do or say anything to upset her. She spends very little time in the office working or paying attention to what is going on which leads to poor communication, misunderstandings, and unrealistic expectations. She tends to hire friends and plays favorites but then eventually everyone takes a turn in the hot seat, where she may fly off the handle screaming or demeaning a staff member (often in front of other staff), at what is often a minor mistake that could be easily corrected. Good staff are suddenly fired or quit after they just can’t take it anymore, creating constant turnover and instability in the org.

This rescue started out of pure luck and will never reach its full potential and that is due to the President and Founder. The rotating door of employees should be noted and examined further. If an organization constantly points the finger to everyone else, how will change occur? It won’t simply due to her ego. The scathing emails sent daily, the demeaning communication by her to her employees and the constant blame game is enough to leave and not look back. The ones who are ultimately hurting, the animals and she has knowingly put animals in harms way to protect her ego as a result. 100% needs to be shut down or 100% needs to have her removed from organization.
