Plus, I talked to the lady at the rescue group. She will foster Theresa for a month in her own home, and then once she gets a good idea of her personality, then she will screen potential people to adopt her with.
The only thing with putting her on YT, is that I've seen the threads where people come in with good intentions about wanting the dog, and for some reason or another, can't handle the dog, or needs the dog to be sent back. I didn't want to put Theresa through all of that. I rather have her go with someone who will put her needs first, and will get a good idea of her personality and her in a home with the right people. Plus, she says they screen rather intensely. I rather have someone scrutinze who is getting my dog. They will have the time to do that, whereas I will not.
I just didn't want to run into the possibility of having her returned. That would not be fair to her, to me, or to Teddy. And with giving her to a YT member, there is a slight chance that might happen, even though they might have the best intentions. Because I have seen it happen here on these threads once before. And I don't think I can handle that. | Sorry you have to rehome your baby but maybe any yt member who lives near the shelter can pm you for the info and maybe someone here can still adopt her and at least you will feel really good knowing your baby is really with someone who cares about her and you can keep in contact with them!! Just a suggestion but I wish you the best on your future and commend you for taking care of your grandparents!!! |
