what a terrible situation! i hope it works out and you get to keep Misty.

i have been unfortinate twice in these kind of situations. first on was my st.bernard my dad took while i was in the shower and DROPPED HER OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE!!! the second was my GSD/malamute cross. he took her back to the people that gave her to me as a christmas gift. i felt so bad because those people were always very good to me. like a second family and when christmas came around that dog was the only thing they could give me for christmas. they were very poor people.
