Ok, What was the purpose in that ? Some of these so called shelters make my blood boil. I have seen shelters kick out rescue people before & Never will for the life of me understand their thinking when the dog will most likely either die from something it contracted in the shelter or be PTS so why not just give it to the rescue. Why all the Red Tape when to the shelter it's just a # that's costing them time & money. I had a lady from a rescue stop me on my way in to the Riverside, Ca shelter & ask me to pull a pup for her as her rescue was no longer allowed in & the pup was out of time. She handed me the cash & off I went to adopt me a dog & she was a sweetie, a little Norwich terrier. After I got the dog I realized that the lady was with a rescue that I had worked with in the past. So where there's a will theres a way.
