what a weird story. how did the lady find those 2 dogs at the guy’s house? how much was she selling them for? what other dogs did she do it to? if she’s at the humane society I’m sure the took the cream of the crop drop offs and sold them as well but, who’s to know since the article is awful
This doesn’t surprise me at all.
People claim to have “found” kittens in the street all the time. Then add in the profit incentives of “rescues” and it makes sense.
Up here in the Northeast most of the dogs available for adoption are shipped up from the South (or even from Puerto Rico). Joe or Jill Private Citizen often runs the “rescue organization”. These mutts of various ages are often shipped up and immediately sold—forget the “donation” terminology—for $400-500 dollars. The customers are often secured before the dogs are actually shipped up. You can just imagine the Bubbas down South happy to let their dogs breed for their cut of that. Likely a fair amount of dog swiping goes on too.
I guess this is why the pound only has pit bull mixes... any cool breeds get sold.
