Remember the dog I found.......the owner is a jackass
It amazes me that some people can have the nerve they do. I have found 5
dogs in the last 3 years and no one has ever acted like this jerk and his family did. The others were happy to get the dog back unharmed. Tuesday evening the owner called and left a message on my answering machine after getting the flyer I had put out. The number he left had been disconnected. By the time I get home there is two more messages. I used the return call feature on the phone to get the number he was calling from and the idiot is drunk and yelling at me for taking his dog. I tried to explain to him calmly that I didn't take his dog from infront of your house I found her 1/2 a mile away on the main highway. Finally I had it with his crap and screamed back at if him...If I hadn't picked her the hell up we wouldn't be having this conversation because she'd be nothing but a bloody spot on the highway. He finally shut up and apologized. Then he proceeds to tell me that he lets her go so she can run that she herds his horses. My god he has two horses in a small piece of property beside his house that is no bigger than his house. There's no freaking hearding these horses the area is probably 30 x 30 feet with a shed at the back for them. Anyway I told him she's going to get hit this way. Then he says " Yea she runs cars too but she's a border collie and she'll never get hit because she's a border collie, you know she's a border collie" By then I knew it was no sense talking to him he's not only drunk but a ****ing idiot to. By now I'm sorry I even put out the flyers and just didn't take her directly to the shelter and let them find her a new home. I told him I didn't have her that she was at the shelter and gave him the phone number. I told him to call after 11 that someone wouldn't be there untill then. So on Thusday afternoon is mother calls. Mike takes the call and said no it was me he'd let her speak to me. I answer the phone and she starts yelling at me that her damned phone wasn't disconnected that I was lying that I didn't call. That I better think before I go picking up peoples dogs and she slams the phone down. My god she's as stupid as he is. I know one thing if I ever see her loose again I'm scooping her up and taking her right to the shelter. I'm not even going to take her home not after this episode. Celeste |

Good Person to Try and help the Dog!
Celeste!
You were good enough to try. I know it's hard to admit we can't save the world, as much as we would like. At least you gave it a shot. Keep trying to do the right thing. Don't let it get you down. n1kk1 Spot wrote: It amazes me that some people can have the nerve they do.

Don't stop what you are doing, but don't expect too much from such people. Just remember: you're doing it for the dogs. I hope this guy was just too proud to admit that what you said to him will make him consider his dog's safety for a change. -- Lynne http://picasaweb.google.com/what.the.hell.is.it/ |

Remember the dog I found.......the owner is a jackass
I've been helping a dog rescue centre online and have seen some terrible
things. Unfortunately, people don't think of their dogs as children. One man who was considering me romantically (but I told him where to go!) suggested I get rid of my Lhasa and cat if we were to be together. Although I refrained from cursing at him, I told him he was disgusting and hopefully someone will get rid of him instead one day. This throw-away attitude society has doesn't stop at material objects. The dogs and cats that go through rescue begin with sad lives, but they are found new, loving homes, and are kept until one is found. I am yet to understand why humans dump dogs because I look forward to having my babies for the next 20+ years (we want to break some world records ) *I* am a proud, loving mummy to my cat and dog, who I adore more than anything else in the world. Every little yawn, stretch, bark/meow, cuddle, snore and belly rub make me melt. As they get older, I only love them more. (Lhasa Apso, BrandLee, is 3, and the star of my creative non-fiction book; Cognac or "Connie" is a 6 year old tabby. No special breeding, but so cute! She has the cutest little pad on one foot that is pink and black combined which is different to her other s. I put her on the scanner one day so I always have that little paw print. Okay, I know I baby them WAYYY too much. (Pictures on the website under PHOTO ALBUM) S. Season BubbleGirl International author and motivational icon hailing from Australia.

Remember the dog I found.......the owner is a jackass
Its always disturbed me how people will try to control all aspects of
anothers life... the main reason he probably said that was the fact he would likely fail the puppy test and kitty test... if the dog don't like you, One must suddenly develope a long lasting onset of a headache and cancel dinner... *G* same with the cat... provided the cat isn't trying to get revenge on you for letting the dog drink from its bowl... Ive got a dog that has definitely let me know that certain peoples were not allowed anywhere near myself nor my son... yayyyy... only four times in the past... and all were well deserved... *she's a seizrue response dog for my son and I think she's extra protective and more sensitive to others issues* I'm volunteering for bunny rescue... talk about throwaway animals... "what? you're suppose to play with them??? they don't just die shortly after easter??? Training? what? train rabbits???!?!??! they want what? attention???? cuddles???? food???!??!?!!!" Its incredulous... the way people have no clue... I've heard stories about throw away dogs... very sad... have you ever purchased the book by berkley breathed? Called 'Flawed Dogs'?... it made me cry... so sad... so flawed... so in need of lovin... should get it... carrie "Season BubbleGirl - BubbleGirl.net" wrote in message u...
