Challenging Day!

This day has been frustrating...I have working with another Dogs Deserve Better Rep to rescue an elder Husky mix named Samantha, chained outside her whole life in Mass.

It has taken months but we have finally found a foster home for her and someone willing to transport her to Maine.

All of the pieces are in place, but now her owner refuses to return our calls. He has given permission for us to take Samantha, but the was months ago. We need him to be home to sign a release when we go to pick Sam up, otherwise we cannot save her.

The worst part is...He is selling his home. He threatened to euthanize Sam if we could not find a place for her to go before he moved.

I am trying to convince the Animal Control Officer in the town to go to his home to remove Samantha personally - but so far, she has not responded to that idea.

On another note...Another rescuer sent the below poem to me and I think it is great!
You Know You Are a Rescuer

It is raining AGAIN today. The house is full of muddy footprints. Lucky has been out pulling drowning earthworms from the ground. Yuck.
