Please if you have other links to this issue send them along. I have only been able to find the coverage of our local news channel and this one all of which convey the same thing, that he had to give him up because he could not take him to temp digs. He found a home, went back to retrieve Shuma only to be turned away.
Her response, that her kids bonded with the dog and she would not give him up. Further, she said HE could go and find another dog to take Shuma's place.
I really don't. After reading your post yesterday, I googled for a bit, looking for some response from the woman, but none of the articles gave any more information than you've already posted.
Should I stumble onto something, I'll certainly pass the link along. I suppose the bonding excuse pretty much goes to what Salamander describes as pure spite.
