I'm starting to get paranoid. As many of you know, my 15 yr. old Lab died 3 weeks ago. To be blunt, I had her euthanized because of her limited kidney function and her overall deterioration. I NEVER intended to euthanize my dog, but it seemed her quality of life s^ked. Everyday, I never knew from one day to the next how she'd be -- vomiting, diarrhea, not eating, slipping & falling (she wore "boots" to keep from falling), etc .... She got laser treatments, Vitamin B shots, Acupunture ... I tried everything under the sun until I couldn't spend any more money (close to $13K). I even had a "Pet Healer" with "healing hands" come to my house to give her treatments. She got better, and then she got worse.
I've put in applications at 3 different rescue organizations to foster, and been rejected by all of them. I also put in an app. to adopt a dog. The shelter told me I was rejected because of a letter I'd written 6 years ago complaining about their clinic. I spoke to someone who used to work at the clinic, and I got the impression the receptionist might've told him I was a 8*t(h.
The Rescues:
#1 - Humane Society - Okay, I admit it. I wrote a bad review about them on YELP, but removed it when I applied to be a foster.
#2- Lab Rescue- Spoke to a lady on the phone & never heard from them again.
#3 - XXXX Rescue (not printing their name) - Yesterday, I emailed pictures of my yard and the woman just sent me an email saying my yard wasn't the right shape.
On the Foster applications you have to list the vets you took your dog to. Over a one year period of time, my dog had seen at least 7 different vets, yet her condition continued to worsen. I wrote negative reviews on all the vets, except one.
I'm really paranoid now. Do these animal organizations keep a database of people they don't like?
