FORMER DEVORE DOGS IN NEED OF RE-RESCUE reads the facebook posting. You can't even count the responses in the comments and cross posts. And those pledges came too. Then the announcement that 'Hancock' had been rescued or rather pulled from Devore. Great news you think. Not the end of story.
Hancock was abandoned at Loma Linda Veterinary Clinic by the puller/rescuer/activist with a $4000 vet bill and four other dogs also abandoned there. They were abandoned December 8th and as of yesterday, they are still there. But the begging for pledges, once again, has already started.
The clinic agreed to release the dogs to the 'puller' for $2000 but the 'rescuer' said to send them back to Devore stating "maybe they'll get adopted again". Does this sound a little scammie to you? Revolving dogs, get money, pull, abandon, get money again. Not the first time and this blog has written about this before. http://devoreshelterfriends.blogspot.com/2012/06/once-again-activists-show-they-are.html

The most worrisome thing is that this person has pulled several dogs from San Bernardino City shelter as well and was accused of killing 10 dogs in Texas. And a well known advocate against the City shelter needs to explain her relationship with this person.

I donated money when they got rescued, I mean pulled, I mean taken, whatever.... Now they want more money for the same dogs again. What about the dogs still in the shelters? I had heard some rescue, Paws and Angels or something like that, was opening down the street from the shelters and the dogs would be taken there for boarding. What happened to that place? Why are they still going to the vets office? What about the transport of these animals? I thought this new rescue ranch would be transporting to other no kill places?
ReplyDeleteAll of this money I have donated with the intent of helping shelter dogs get a second chance at life and this is what my money went for???? I feel swindled and conned...
I thought with my heart, I guess I should have used my head....and done some more checking before I sent a single dollar.
The name of the rescue you mentioned is Angel N Paws and they are the ones with the rescue ranch.
ReplyDeletethe people who abandoned these dogs was Cheryl Meyer and company.
All I can saw is Way to Go guys. You complain about the shelters, but you are no better. In fact you are worst, you took the money and ran.....like common thieves and con men. Carma will get you all
