So, okay. In my recovery from losing Mac, I left the shelter for
several days. In my absence, a member of the 'Dog Welfare Committee"
brought in a traditional trainer to deal with Mongo, a big, exuberant,
Rottie/mix puppy. He dragged Mongo from his run, and, when Mongo bit
him, slipped on a choke chain and forced him into submission. (This,
btw, was a demonstration for new volunteers on 'how to handle a dog')
Another volunteer simply threw herself on the 'trainer" and pummeled
him. The 'trainer' ('35 years experience training police dogs') called
the police and demanded her arrest. They didn't do it.
So, okay, again. I contacted my attorneys and and am charging my own
freakin' shelter with permitting animal abuse. The "Dog Welfare
Committee' is unapologetic. "Whatever it takes to get a dog adopted' is
their position. Is it yours?
