Rescue or STEALING?!!! I'm so upset at my next door Neighbor, she picked up a stray Dog (male 6-8 month old puppy) that was wandering around in the street. It had a collar on but it was roaming around lost, she refuses to take it to the Humane Society b/c she claims she does'nt want him to experience the Trauma of the 10 day Quarentine period. So he has been crated all day while she is at Work, she has Cats so he can't come inside her House at all! She keeps him outside in her Carport in this humid 100 degree heat since she is allergic to Dogs. She's about 50 yrs. old and she's only had 1 Dog in her Life so she's not really a "Dog Person". She's trying to find him a new Home but no Luck yet, it's been about a week now and his presence/barking is irritating my 3 Yorkie's! She refuses to take him back to the Neighborhood she found him. If I Lost my Dogs I would hope that whom ever Found them would take them to a Vet. or Shelter hoping that they would scan them since they are Micro-chipped! I don't think she's being fair to the rightful Owners and I'm frustrated with her since she thinks and believes that she is Rescuing him, but who is going to Rescue him from Her? We have tried to talk to her, it's gotten to the point where my girl friends want to steal him and take him to the no-kill Shelter just so he won't be suffering in this heat! What should I do? It breaks my Heart to see him un-happy and what about his real Owners? |
I know it shouldn't be your responsibility but if you know the neighborhood in which she found him, could you post flyers. Or call the local shelters and ask if anyone has reported the dog missing? |
Oh you poor dear. If I was you, I would call the no kill shelter and let them know what is going on. They should know what to do in this situation. Putting a dog in a crate in 100* weather is not being kind. I am sorry if I am sounding too harsh but that is the way I feel. I hate animal abuse of any kind and although this lady is trying to help, she is very misguided. Do you know where she found this little dog? Can you call the vets and/or shelter in that area and ask if someone is missing this little guy? How about posting an ad in the paper? Just my thoughts... |
oh my goshh.. im sorry you are going through this with her! that poor doggy! :( im not sure what you should do.. but i am bumping this up, so others can chime in!!! (again, i hope you can help the poor lil thing be returned to it's rightful owners.. cuz like you said im sure they miss him! :() and outside in a crate in the heat!!.. not only do you feel bad for the dog, but he is disrupting your household(of course i dont blame him, he is probably sooo uncomfortable!! :eek::() maybe put a post on craigslist? (maybe the owners will see it??) i dont know?!:confused: good luck! keep us posted!! |
is that animal cruelty...and can she not be reported? |
I'd call your local humane society and report the lost dog just in case the owner is looking for him and let them know the situation. Maybe they'll send someone over to get him then if he's barking continuously and is in an unsafe condition. |

stealing him back is a good option since she stole him first and hasnt a clue how to care for him.. it is abuse to keep him crated in the heat. help that poor dog and take him away:aimeeyork |

She wouldn't be able to call and report that someone stole her stolen dog! Although, she might suspect the OP since he has already tried to talk to her about it. But, if he doesn't mind being at odds with his neighbor, go for it! |
She doesn't want him taken care of in a no kill shelter. But she puts him outside in the heat and in a crate. That poor little dog. How can she even think that is fair to him? Hope you know where he came from and help him out. Good Luck do what your heart tells you. |
Being outdoors all day in this weather could kill that poor puppy:unlove: Stealing is wrong, but letting an innocent animal suffer is worse:( I know what I'd be doing, as soon as this poor excuse for a human being was gone to work, it'd be my mission;) |
