| I wonder what made the bet change his mind about doing the surgery for free? This is weird, I think there is much more to the story.

| I have to agree. There's things we still don't know and stuff isn't adding up. Just my 2 cents

| Maybe that rescue worker told him how much the lady needed the dog and how much it would help her to have it if she could only save that $$$ this time and put what she had into the bank against future needs for the dog.

| We had a situation like this where the owner wanted her yorkie back within 24 hours...We gave him back. There are SO many yorkies needing our assistance, that I have no desire to keep one that the owner wants. All she did was free up a foster home for another one in need. I don't understand a rescue keeping a pup if the owner wants it within such a short period of time. Yes, all rescues have a contract that a person signs saying it is a permanent decision. I don't know for sure, but I would think a contract with a rescue would have that 3 day period where you can change your mind. I would contact an attorney and ask about that. IF there is a 3 day period, you could simply take them to court yourself.

| There will be a retraction of this post. The truth will show that the rescue is stellar and did everything they said they would do and more. The poster of this thread agrees. |

| This is to retract my earlier post I wish to appoigize to SAVE A YORKIE RESQUE. I called them and asked them to take my dog because he needed surgery which i could not afford. and they did that promptly. when I found i could get the funds needed for my dogs surgery I paniced and asked for him back. They could not just take my word the dog would now get the medical attention he needed. They had to investagate and be sure it would be in the best intrest of the dog. I was so upset and not thinking clearly and jumping to conclusions. I had convinced myself they would not return him to me. They said he may not need surgery because they had not taken him to the vet as yet. In other word lets wait and see if this vet says he needs surgery. My previous post was definately the ravings of emotionaly hysterical woman who had just surrendered her beloved pet and was blaming everyone for her short cummings. I take full responsablity for the inacterate post. SAVE A YORKIE RESQUE acted in a responcable professional manor. They did every thing they promised to do. I sincerely appoligize. Please forgive me. |

| As a whole, all of this on both sides sounds odd. The fact that they gave Donna so much private info is concerning to me, the fact that it made them react and retract kind of strange too... Is this a reputable Rescue?

| From others on here it seems they are, but I agree with you. I thought it was kinda strange Donna was able to get so much info so easily.

| I agree about the private information being openly shared with an uninvolved party, Lynzy. With regard to the reputability of this rescue, I believe them to be reputable. That being said, if all the things that were stated to Donna regarding his environment are accurate, I still believe he was in the right setting with the rescue, and not the OP. Whatever will be, will be, but I hope you (OP) will secure some sort of finances available for him - if he should ever need extensive veterinary care again in the future. |

Usually older people are extremely attacked to their animals, even when they don't always have ideal situations for them. A lot of dogs live with single people and families don't have ideal situations, either. Many small dogs have bad teeth and poor nutrition in the nicest of homes, a fact I've seen over and over and over. All too many dogs spend an unbelievable amount of time alone in pens and virtually live in their crate. My sis's next to last dog was a little black poodle she and her husband bought from a working couple who made the in a tiny wire crate all day long, was let out to eat, play some with the family in the evenings and then put back in his wire crate all night. He'd NEVER been to the vet - ever and was a year old! These people had the money and two BMW's in the driveway. The people were both CPA's and confessed they had no time for the dog really and now that he was getting older, around a year at the time, he was marking their house and "ruining" it when he was out of the crate!!!!! He had ear mites, worms and a severe UTI; and had to stay at the vet to be cathetarized for a while in order to empty his bladder since his infection & swelling were so bad, then was on a heavy dose of antibiotics and other drugs for quite a while. So, even the nicest-seeming and well-to-do people have dogs living in poor conditions or awful lifestyles. Billie said that when they walked out of the couple's front door with the little dog those people had had for a year, they didn't even tell him goodbye or pet him - just shut the door, locked it and turned out the porch light while Billie and Bill still stood on the porch, the little poodle snuggled into Bill's arms. Billie said that not long after they got him home late that night they could tell something was very wrong with him - he couldn't seem to pee though he tried and there was blood in what he did manage. At 7:00 a.m. the next morning, all 3 of them were at the vet getting him care. He got fully treated for all his ailments, neutered and lived to the age of 12 years, though he was prone to the occasional UTI. That's just one story I know of where people who had the means and ability just neglected a wonderful dog and apparently didn't even care for him. If they hadn't sold him when they did, I wonder if he'd have ever been taken to the vet for his awful bladder condition. Wish they all could, but a lot of dogs do not live in ideal conditions or get vet visits or dental care, even in today's nicer families.

| Clearly they made her do that to get her dog back. Well, well.

| I just find it a little strange to find out your dog has LP which is not life threatening and surrender it to a rescue so quickly. I mean, if my dog was lame, that's a different story.
