For those who were interested...Tammy emailed me back and said she never intended to imply that Mike and I were bad pet owners, but then went on to say that she feels that there is a limit to how many animals you can have and have them still get the care and attention that they need. She said that I had made the choice to take Bailey home (I think she may be saying that I made the choice and better deal with it, but I'm not sure) and she also apologized for hurting my feelings, and I don't know exactly how I feel about that apology yet. She never did ask me to come back, so I assume that they were relieved that the relationship is over. Oh, she also said that Bailey was a very adoptable dog. It was a very noncommittal letter (in my opinion). She did say she understood how difficult it is to foster dogs because she and her husband have fostered over 30 dogs.

Ok, there's the explanation, so I guess my relationship with the Allen County SPCA has been dissolved.

As a result, I have decided that if I ever find Tobey again, I will not be contacted them to let them know that we have him, because if they take him we won't get him back either.

Thanks for listening.
