[quote=Anonymous]This story is sad (but hopefully will have a happy ending for the dog!). I don’t think anyone did anything wrong here - the owner’s prior actions are understandable, as are the actions and policies of the rescue org. It’s an unfortunate alignment of circumstances but even so I don’t think the rescue org should bend its policy because a lot of negative consequences could flow from that - two easy ones are that people could relinquish their pet back to the org simply to get out of paying for a pup’s medical care, and then readopt after the rescue org funds the care; and, the rescue org would be put in a position of assessing whether any owner who requests to readopt has good intentions, would take pet ownership more seriously second time around, etc. (imagine the headlines if the org did allow a prior owner to readopt and then said owner relinquished the pup a second time).
