ya lessons learned about getting things in writing, i havent been in this type of situation before so i didnt think about it.

My next question is if i call the humane society on this man and they do take the dog away, how hard will it be for me to get her? will she be put up for adoption asap or do they have a waiting period? if i go up there in lets say 48 hrs after pick up will she be there and i can pay for her and take her home? she wasnt a fixed dog and we estimated her to be about 5 months old so i dont know what they would do to her first.

Our whole family wants her back, she was happy and to me that is a important thing. My oldest daughter has witnessed the man hitting her with a stick on the head but i didnt see it so ive got no proof, i guess she got off her chain and started running back here, he caught her and called her a few choice words and smacked her. Other things have happened but my husband told the kids to only tell him because he knows it just tears at me that she is suffering and i cant do anything.

I am hoping here really soon to be able to come up with some money and go and see if we can buy her from him. I dont know how much boxers go for but she is worth a lot to me at least, this is one time i wish i was rich.
