Lisa, I get you girl, I really really do.
I don't try to see good in the OP, I'm simply more concerned about his dog than
him. Through the years of rescuing I've dealt with all kinds of characters and
situations, and learned the hard way that wasting my breath on the owners who
are dumping their pets is simply wasting my breath. Help dog first, worry about
owner later is my new motto. I honestly don't think it would have been that
costly or that difficult to fly the dog here, and the second I found a way to
borrow some cash I offered my help, as did you, yes we were ignored and
it is very unfortunate, because we had nothing but good intentions.

RIGHT ON LS!! Its just how it is over rescuing for yrs and yrs you learn very quickly whom is trying to pull the covers over your eyes so to speak. Its about helping the animal, yes some owners need guidence and help and we do that but the majority of them its all about hurry and get the poor animal help as quickly as possible as in some cases its alittle to late no matter what we do. Our hearts and mental state, all our time, funding go out to these poor babies we go thru more than anyone can imagin with the work we do. You do not know how many times i wanted to just take the owners out back someplace and do to them like they did to there animals, BUT we have to stay composed and keep it together for the welfare of the animal and ourselfs. The dog did not have to fly as there are MANY folks out there willing to travel from state to state helping get this rescue to its new home.

A rescue is never to old to learn to be a real dog.

Trestro- No-one thinks you are wrong to re-home this dog. You could no longer offer him the life he deserves, so he should go to people that actually have the time for him. What we can't understand is how you can happily have him euthanised if he is not gone before your holiday. You refused to send him on a plane because he 'wasn't worth it.' Lots of people here offered you a (free) solution, you chose to ignore them. Not the actions of someone who cares about their dog.
Lisa, LS, Pam and everyone else who tried to help, THANK YOU, we love you for it. xxx

Augusta. I'd read the thread before you offer to help, though.

Yeah, I've kinda gathered that from the three posts above mine..

I'm pretty sure the Craig's list ad said Roswell coz I looked it up a while back and even posted it. The rescue was in Augusta.

Ah, I must have misunderstood. Not that it really matters at this point, unfortunately.
