[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The dog was from a local rescue called Lost Dog & Cat (LDCRF). In response to the news story, they posted a detailed timeline about what happened: https://www.lostdogrescue.org/amoshart/

According to them, the owner contacted them about the sick puppy and they offered to take it back, and also advised that if she put it down, she should stay with the dog for the euthanasia. She didn't do either of those things. The county shelter she surrendered it to called LDCRF, presumably because either the owner or the tags said it originated with LDCRF. (The WaPo story reports that the shelter surrender form says it reserves the right to evaluate animals surrendered, and treat and adopt them out.)

I am curious how the news got this story, and why they didn't interview the vets who appear to have screwed up the diagnosis.[/quote]

I doubt the vet screwed up anything.  The rescue probably funded the vet care.  Under no circumstances should the owner get the dog back.  I am practical about what I can do and not do for my pets, but if I choose to put one down, I am there for it to the bitter end.  Poor dog.[/quote]
