[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I texted the rescue coordinator today letting her know we need to take care of this this weekend because this is really agonizing.  She said we're required to do extensive training first.  I have no words.  For the record, this is Lucky Dog rescue.  I thought they had a great reputation. I'm exhausted and depressed and just want this to be over. [/quote]

As I read your interaction with the rescue, I cringed, thinking it was probably Lucky Dog.  I hate that rescue, and I am a huuuuuuuuuuge rescue advocate.  Their sole goal is to get as many dogs into as many homes as possible--but there is no concern about getting the RIGHT dog into the RIGHT home.  They used to be part of another rescue group (K-9 Lifesavers) and they split because K9L wanted to temperament test and foster dogs before they put them in homes, and LD just wanted to adopt straight off a truck from south carolina without any interactions with the dogs, and then guilt people when it didn't work out.  Surprise, there are issues :(  The last straw for me was when I volunteered to foster a "pomeranian" for them in my apartment, and the dog they brought off the transport to me was 50+ lbs.  My apartment's weight limit was 25.  They didn't care that I said I was going to be evicted for taking the dog, they just tried to guilt me into taking it because they had nowhere else for it to go.

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this.  It's not fair in what is already a difficult time.[/quote]
