Re: [pyrnet] Fw: [DOG-RESCUE] Chat: Spokane, WA Pyr --- UPDATE, SAVED!!

["Linda Weisser" <lmweisser@home.com>]

And now that this high profile, weep many tears dog is bailed out and
"saved", life will go back to normal around here and next week or surely
within the month, there will be another like him and another after that and
then another and another.  The stream is endless in eastern WA and all of
ID.  And all of these people circulating pleas of panic and emotion will go
back to their computers and the rest of us will deal with what happens next.
Frankly if the Pyrangel network would like to be informed about all of them
so that they can arrange foster care and transport them out of the area,
we'd just love that.  Perhaps the network can contact Laila Folk and take
all the TX dogs too.  Get real, people, this kind of touchy feely rescue
makes all kinds of people feel good.  In the long run it makes almost no
difference in the reality.

I would also point out that this dog comes from a totally unknown background
in an area where most all dogs are backyard or farmyard bred.  Past
experience shows a lot of them with very marginal temperaments.  Life is not
as simple as saving a dog from euthanasia.  There are a lot worse things
than death.  For the dog and for the people who end up dealing with him.
