Kelley, this is just heartbreaking. I thought god put us on earth to be animal's stewards, not just kill them for the inconvenience they may cause or because they aren't "perfect". What sadness the loss of these two lives has caused !

Problem is, if you turn these shelter people in, and you're a rescuer, these folks may take it out on you and your pets/rescues.

Re: [Felvtalk] Two kitties - names unknown - please add to CLS (nonFELV)
Stories like this hurt my heart. What passes for our local humane society (It's privately owned, an "Inc.") has a horrendous kill rate and hideously exacting standards for adoption, which is a really bad combination. I had two really bad experiences, years apart, trying to adopt from them, emerging petless, angry and humiliated, and later several other people I talked to said they had had similar experiences, and I've heard the same kind of story about them as what happened to this poor lady's dog. This place has totally lost sight of what's supposed to be the Mission, reuniting lost pets with their owners and uniting abandoned pets with loving new owners. The people there seem to be on power trips to make adopters and owners of lost pets jump through as many hoops as possible. I work with lawyers, so I know plenty about people going on power trips, but it's so different when there are little lives at stake. May Dixie and the doggie rest in peace.

We had a similar situation this week at the shelter where I work. A resident was missing a dog, but she saw him on Petfinder so she knew he was at the shelter. She called us on Monday to let us know that she'd be coming to pick up the dog on Tuesday, since we're closed to the public on Mondays. My idiot co-worker who answered the phone not only refused to let the woman pick up the dog on Monday, she never even bothered to let our director know that the dog would be reclaimed the next day. Needless to say, the family came to retrieve their dog at 10 am Tuesday, but the dog had been euthanized just a couple of hours before. I wasn't there on Monday, by the way, and that would NOT have happened if I had been the one to pick up that phone call. And sometimes even having a verbal committment from a rescue does no good. I'll never forget Dixie, a big longhaired tortie we had last summer. She was scheduled to be pulledbut I couldn't save her even though I insisted that rescue was coming. I'm so sorry that happened. I know how horrible it feels when you try so hard to get them out and something gets screwed up.
