I am so outraged!!!!! To think if someone steals a gun, car, even a pocket knife and you suspect of its whereabouts, the law stands behind you, and it doesn't matter how it came into your pocession. BUT if its your furbaby (something much like a child) that depends on you for its care and love, you have to apparently have enough PROOF or get into a confortation with someone before they will get involved!!!!!! My goodness she has his chip number, how much would it take for the law to pick up a scanner or take animal control to go and scan the dog in question, and it keeps everyone safe. Animal owners (at least I know I wouldn't) be offended to let them in to scan my animals. But then again I own mine!! If these people will steal or hide an animal they know is not theirs, would they care who they hurt??? Don't think so!!! This thread has really opened my eyes as to keeping my guys safer, the steps to take if the unthinkable happens, the rights of animal owners and how much help our shelters need. I hope this all works out for her, and Cookie is soon on his way home. I just pray it's not another let down for Gen, she has already been through so much with everyone acting so guilty and for reasons unknow to us. May God take control of this situation and keep everyone safe and the many, many prayers answered to have Gen and Cookie reunited. Sharon P.S. Just in case all doesn't go well, my husband has just suggested we all chip in a few dollars to make bail for Gen and her husband!!!! LOL |
