You can vent about things without starting something with an adopter like that. I will tell you my daughter and I have been through this about 3 times. Everytime we have been through exaustive explanations about what to expect and how to react. They bobble their heads and give the right answers but they are not really listening. We have actually started requiring adopters new to the Shiba breed to start reading a couple of web sites on shiba behavior and articles on Puppy Millers before we allow them to adopt. Yep it has driven some people away but at least they see what to expect and don't drag the pup along with them eyes closed. I'm glad she returned Chico to you and he's no worse for the wear. There is a family out there for him and you will find it with him. Look at how Theo found us and we haven't ever had a Chi before! It might be a good idea if you are talking to any local rescues especially small dogs to let them know of your experience with her. Nothing in writing but just a factual heads up that they need to interview her throughly before adopting to her so they don't end up with a bounce either.
