They Moved Without Her

[Sudilar]

Liz, what a horrible predicament to be in. I really feel for you. All we can do is pray that the pup is saved.

[Logan]

I have missed this whole saga, Liz, and I'm sorry. You know I am too far away to offer anything but prayers. But prayers you and the "red" one will get. Bless her heart, and bless yours for caring enough to try and help her.

I am thinking of you both.

She's still here. I can't believe this. AC did not respond yet.
I talked to the Mayor's Action Center & was given a report
number & assured that since I had reported this over the
weekend, that they would escalate the concern to AC. If I had
said that there was a vicious dog around they probably would
be here with guns blazing. PB rescue locally has not responded
to my phone messages either. Maybe I should have lied & said
that this girl was just a stray with no "owner' ? but then i could
not have told them what a sweet dog she really is.

AC did not come today, but the fence company came out today
to start putting up my new fence around the backyard. I'm glad
that has started, but now have no fence to separate Smokey
from the PB. Smokey thinks it's just great, but "Red" seems
more interested in me than him. I'm afraid she might nip him
or hurt him somehow in an effort to get to me. I can't handle
one wild excited pup in an open yard with a wild excited PB
girl who is so starved for attention that she jumps & spins
whenever Smokey & I go out for his potty.I'm probably doing
everything wrong, but I just can't yell at her to back off. Too
many people have already yelled & shooed her off. I'm trying
here, but I am concerned for Smokey too.

p.s. Someone has removed her collar since yesterday, so I have
no way to confine her somewhere else.

Liz,
I thoroughly understand your concern to make sure Mokie is ok. I will pray that everything works out for this love starved dog. Perhaps you can get an inexpensive collar for her and tie her up somewhere so she won't run loose but is seperated from Mokie until AC gets their act together.

{{{{{HUGS}}}}} I wish I could be there to help you more! I understand your pain and concern.

[Sudilar]

Mokie is your utmost concern. Protect him. You are doing more for this red PB than anyone else has ever done for her. You are an angel. I wish you good luck in your endeavors.

[Sudilar]

Any news on the red PB?

[lizbud]

Sue,

She was not around anywhere last night after work I had
been in touch by PM with Mike & Molly. I was to get another
collar (some more food) & attach her to an old fence post in
the back yard & Mike could come down, pick her up & bring her
to Southside Shelter as a stray.(No legal problems for Rosie).
I've got the collar, 3 lbs of hamburger & two large soup bones
to keep her entertained while waiting for transport to Rosie's.
But I didn't see or hear her at all last night or this morning
while outside with Moki.I called the Action Center this morning
and asked for an update on the report # they gave me, but
they said they have not been updated by AC. I'm going to do
some snooping around this evening, check these people's yard,
etc., to see if she's there.I will offer to buy her from them &
then will be able to get her to the Shelter.( If they were given
a warning ticket & allowed to keep her) Don't think she'll ever
be safe or loved with these people. Liz.

[Sudilar]

Liz, Molly and Mike, you are my heros for going way beyond the call of duty to save this poor innocent. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and good luck to you all!!

[ramanth]

Best of luck! I do hope she shows up again so you can collar her and get her to the shelter.

[ownerof3dogs]

How is everything? Did she show up yet? Let us know!

[lizbud]

I really hated to post bad news, but I have not seen or heard
her since the first part of last week. I talked to Molly Thurs. eve.
and both she & Mike were ready to come at a moment's notice
to help pick her up & transport her to Shelter.Either AC picked
her up, or the people have hidden her somewhere. Her house
is only three houses away from me & I know I would have heard
or seen her in their yard is she were still here. She should be of
some value to these people, if only as a breeder dog, I would
think. I fear AC has taken her. Molly told me that
she heard that Indy AC has not changed their policy on Pits
If that's the case, she's at Rainbow Bridge. I will call AC again
tomorrow to see if they have an update on the report number
they gave me.It's a very different "feel" around the neighborhood
since she's disapeared. The local stray kitties have re-appeared,
like they know she's gone. I have a very bad feeling about the
little red girl. I'll never stop looking & watching for her.

[tatsxxx11]

Poor "Red Girl." Please let us know Liz when you hear something. And thank you SO much for trying to help her. It must have been very emotionally draining for you.

[lizbud]

As luck would have it, I did find out a lot more info today.
I called the Mayor's Action Center, gave them the report num,
etc, & the records had been updated since last I called. She
was picked up on Weds. 1/8/03 and the "owners" were cited
(served papers/with fines) for turning the dog out, having no
license, proof of rabies vac., etc. She was not brought in as a
stray, so she'll have 7 days for her owners to re-claim her.
They said that PB's are not put up for adoption...If she's not
re-claimed or pulled by PB Rescue, she's pts. They said a PB
rescue person comes through AC once a week & pulls dogs.
She would not give me the Rescue's number, so I called Rosie
& she suppied a name & contact number. Called Amy, the PB
rescue person & explained the situation about the red girl.
PB Rescue promised to go & pull a "hold" on her for the PB
group & at least give her an evaluation for adoption. The PB
rescue person said "Don't you just hate scumbags like that who
would throw away a dog"? I couldn't agree more... I feel some
ray of hope for this little girl.

[Sudilar]

Thank you, Liz, for contacting PB rescue. That is her only hope. Thank you for caring about her!!

[ownerof3dogs]

I am glad that you were able to find out what happened to her. And contact a rescue. I really hope that the PB rescue will be able to adopt her out to a new loving family. I am also gald her owners were given a fine!! They deserve worse.

That "Red Girl" is so lucky to have you on her side! Good Job!
