For the last time, we know the people at this shelter and they tell everyone that it is a Kill Shelter so they don't get every single stray dog brought in there. They do NOT kill dogs because of population or behavior or anything. They only euthanize dogs that are very very ill. I worked for a no kill shelter back in AZ. They also KILL dogs for the same reason. So in truth EVERY shelter has to euth dogs at some point. I do NOT like being called a liar. I am only a liar on this subject if the shelter lied to me.

Now does everyone see why we chose not to comment on what happened to Maddie? We knew this would happen. We are not stupid and kept quiet for a reason. Now, thanks to this I am re-feeling the guilt that was starting to dissipate. I also knew in my heart that NO ONE could resist Maddie when they saw her and she would find a good home soon. As she did. So, thanks, to this whole fiasco for making the decision we made harder than it already was.

I guess I couldn't help being negative for once folks. My deepest apologies....truly.

Paul, PLEASE close this thread...... please. I am considering leaving this wonderful place as well........
