Default Shelter Dogs

I don't think anyone is pinning "all this" on Sue. We happen to be
discussing a movie that features her. This could become a wider
discussion about temperament testing in general, but up til now it hasn't
been. I only discussed Sue because she is the subject of discussion.


I'm afraid I'm bringing the outside world to this conversation. Sue has gotten
death threats, Cynthia, the director has gotten death threats. There is an
active hate SS list on the web. So, I'm not just dealing with Usenet
perspective. Sorry.

Sue draws the line at a certain place. Maybe you do too. I think an
argument can be made that it could be drawn at a slightly different place
without necessarily arguing that this means "randomly picking the dogs to
be put to sleep."


We draw the line at different places, not a fixed point, but the first thing we
have to know is who are adopters are, what they have the capacity to deal with,
what they want in a dog. We put dogs up for adoption that require more skill
and committement and we offer them free consultations and we talk with them
every month for 6 months following the adoption. This is the minumum - we often
get more involved.
