Re: Who Wants A Problem Dog?

Just a warning..... I was refered to the shelter by a "rescue" group in the midst of grief for a dalmation who recently went to the bridge. The dog came highly recommended by the shelter and "rescue" so I was stupid enough not research the rescue and not to take someone to temperment test this dog. I assumed it had been done. They SAID they were a rescue. I found them on the internet. Unfortunatly there are people and even shelters and "rescues" (note the quotes) out there that will try and pass off a A-J dog as a K dog. Maybe they don't do it maliciously they are just trying to save EVERY dog. I thought I was rescuing a good dog the "right" way. That is probably why this situation makes me so mad. I do take responsibility for the decision to take her but I still feel TRICKED. If adopters don't know these people/places exist then they (me) can end up with a much-less-than-K dog.
