The owner replied to 1 email. This owner (from what I can tell) agreed to give you this pup. Later, he told admin he still needed help for the puppy and asked for the thread to be resurrected so he could get help for his puppy, asap. That's when I contacted the owner offering my help yet again. No reply to the last 2 email offers of help. Told him I was 10 mins away etcetera.
It doesn't add up - and there is more that doesn't add up, just fyi. If the owner is just confused from being ill...perhaps that's it...if so, I feel so bad fo him  . At the same time, I can't say *nothing* when a member here is sending a family member to a stranger's house and when I clearly saw something not adding up. And, when a puppy is involved. |
Let me add when my husband had his heart attack in the middle of the night a few years ago and in about 6 hours when I knew he was stable he made me go home to see about the dogs. Not a half hour after I got home the nurse was on the line, telling me he was insisting on talking to me. All he wanted to know is if the dogs had been ok while I was gone. He was kept in the hospital for about a week (and never out of it) and when he came home he was right into his old unpaid kennel boy mode. The dogs are number one to him. According to his Dr, the dogs are what keep him active and healthy.
