Yes I sure did tell every single detail about Mindy. She said she could handle that and take the right precautions. I also put her the "ringer", I didn't just say here ya go, bye!

Here is what I did:
Had her fill out an adoption form
Had her for a visit after talking with her a couple of times on the phone.
Checked her references including talking with her vet.
Went to her place and visited her with Mindy (also the OK from the apt management).

Then I had her read and sign the adoption agreement. We had talked over and over about Mindy's man issue. And she was supposed to update me but never did.

I left a message on Saturday telling her if I did not hear from her by Monday I would be coming out to remove Mindy from her care, per the adoption agreement (which is legal) which she signed. Then Monday I got that call, but it was to ask me to take her back and why..and Ya, I was surprised by it. If it were me I would of called the person I got her from and let them (me) know what was going on.

She told me the reason she didn't was because she wanted to handle it herself. I guess she thought she knew more then she did, and more then me, the one person who could of helped. I would have worked with Mindy while she was there and possibly we could have had a different outcome.

I don't really see what more I could have done. And i am just SICK over this! I don't want to debate about rescues and what I should or shouldn't have done. I only want to talk about how to help Mindy.

At this point the only thing I can do is keep her and try to come up with extra money to take her to a trainer. She has been handed around to damn much and I just cannot live with putting her through it again.

BTW. My name is Karla..not OP
It was not my intent at ALL to blame you. I am sorry it came across to you that way, Karla.

I suppose the way I mentioned rescues putting people through a ringer and she would not keep coming back does sound like that....I did not mean it that way at all. I am just frustrated as well...it makes me sick to see a pup go through this...and, I feel for you as well.
