Default so called rescurers

okay
i volunteer with a dog rescue group, and we get these ignorant calls every day " hello i rescured this poor dog that was starved, beaten, wandering the street, almost got hit by a car brought it home and i can not keep it if your groups doesnt get this dog im putting it out! im leaving the gate open, im dropping it off in the country, etc...
or " i rescued this dog and paid for all it vets bill and i will keep the dog only if your group reimburses me for the medical i spent."
why would YOU take it upon your self the rescue a dog that you arent going to take responsibilty for, or that you cant afford to take care of?
i completely understand how bad you feel when you see a torment pup but if you cant/wont do any better by it why do anything. i hate to see an animal suffer, but if i cant help it and i rescued it im going to take responsiblty for it, once i took home, in my mind thats my dog now. if you see a dog that needs help and you cant be the helper CALL someone who can help, notify so one who can help. im not saying ignore the problem, but do something that will truly help the animal.

okay im done venting...i think
