As many of you know I was trying to adopt/foster problem dogs. Luna1 was a no go, Luna2 found a home on the weekend & then today I was offered a 1yr old Walker Hound that needed a ferm hand as hes testing his ranking. I was excited about it & the lady asked how large it the other dog in the house. I said about 60-70 pounds & she asked his breed & I said a staffy.
WELL her nose litterly went up & ON she went saying how all pit bulls are dog agressive & they will fight to the death & blah blah blah.
She said all that even after I told her that he plays with dogs at the off leash dog park & has not once harmed or even looked angry at another dog. ALL Cyrus wants to do is play & give kisses.
I didn't say anything on the phone as I'm at work (she looked up my job & called me, NOT GOOD!!) & I'm beside HR & don't want to get in doo doo.
So I sent her an email.

I'm very againt breedism, & I feel your organization is guilty of this!! I no longer want anything to do with your organization & all contact must come to a halt !!

I have never seen a shelter/rescue group do this before! OOOOO I'm so mad at the Mississauga humane society!!! I'll just go to the Toronto Shelter instead (well not any time soon as I cannot drive & its pretty far away 2-3hr on the bus/train, then with no way to bring the dog home). I just wanted a friend for Cyrus & aid a dog in need. I'm gonna hold off on adopting a dog for a bit, I'm really really pissed off!
