When we all jumped on that, she denied it and said oh no she would NOT put her to sleep. She then told us some elaborate story.
THEN, at the end of that thread she admitted that the one vet had suggested euthanasia. SO...bottom line that IS what she meant all along.
She has failed Mindy...and I know there will be people who will say not, but I do not for one minute believe she went out of her way to get this pup in a rescue.
So....now she admits she is going to euthanize her. In this case, I hate to say it, but at least it will save Mindy from any more chaos of living in a home with all those pups...two litters to boot! She is "tethered" to her. Yah...ok.
This is a woman who cannot stand to keep puppies beyond 8 weeks at most...she does not have the time (her words, not mine) ...so HOW would we even believe for one minute that she has time to care for a special needs pup like Mindy?
IF this pup DID come from where you said, Karla, my suggestion to you is to NEVER attempt rescue again. You are not a rescuer. You are a breeder who does not even have time to care for your puppies after the age of 8 weeks. (this is on your website, so not my insinuations here)
RIP Mindy...you did not deserve this hell on earth. 
My advice to her would be to get ALL dogs out of her life since she clearly does not have the time, money and/or patience.
All I can say is karma is a you know what. |
She may have started out with good intentions in taking Mindy, but it's important for people to understand that when you adopt a dog it may have issues & you need to have a plan on how you are going to handle that financially & otherwise.
Otherwise, you are right, you are failing the animal, pure & simple!
I may have missed it, so someone can correct me, but I never read where she really researched out the costs & options of training, behavior, etc..
I just heard comments about it being expensive & her husband not wanting to put out any money & that she agreed.
I didn't read where she researched the cost of shipping the dog to the those who offered to take her, only guesses at it being too much.
I'm guessing she wanted someone to offer to pay it all, I don't know!
I recall that she wanted to donate to help out Roriee, why in the world would you also not be willing to donate for the help of a dog in your own home!
