I tried 4 different times to get this rescue to call me so i could talk to them, they never did! I wrote the last time asking about the home she would be staying with and mentioned about the threats of being sued in that email.

I wanted to make sure they could actually help her, and how they would do that. these are all easy questions but instead she tells me they WONT take her.

I took her back 2 times when the placements did not work out, I didn't have to. so I think I have been pretty committed to Mindy, I have a responsibility to my dogs who I have had since pups and they come first.

yep I shouldn't of taken Mindy, and I wouldn't have if I had known she was like this. Get Miko to pay for airfare or whatever? Ya right, like that is going to happen..Don't forget this guy lied to us about Mindy so we would take her.

Just because I breed sometimes doesn't mean I have any extra money. We have already put a lot of time and money into Mindy. I cannot do it any more. Do I pay my 400.00 power bill or ship Mindy? hmm gee

Why wont this rescue take her now? Did they not know she attacks other dogs and people? That is the same rescue I contacted before on my own who ignored my pleas for help...

I am too stressed an upset to write any more so I am signing off and taking a break for a few days..
Here is the email that I got from you were you quote Laura:

Quote:
Karla,
This is the first I’ve heard about a lawsuit and animal control.
We won’t be taking Mindy with these risks tied to her. I think it wise you speak with your vet.
Laura
PUP
There you go............you told her that animal control and a lawsuit were involved and this is why they are not taking her. But now you say that is not what was said.

Obviously there was some conversation between you and her or they would not have said the above. They had to have been given the above from you since she wouldn't even tell me what was said or a reason why. Something is not right about this entire thing.

People who volunteer with rescues are lied to all the time. We are told all kinds of tales when we take surrenders. They are the story that the owners "think" we want to hear so they are able to get rid of their problem. Then we find out later what the real story is and deal with it as we go. There are no excuses when this happens or for that matter finger pointing. It's dealt with and we send the money to fix the problems because it is a commitment that we made to the dog. Sometimes it takes thousands of dollars and months or even years............maybe never. I think you might have learned a very hard lesson by taking in something that turned out to be very much larger then you were prepared to deal with and that is unfortunate for Mindy.

Wow if your electric bill is $400 you better check to see if all your neighbors are plugged into your house too
