I realize there is not much we can do. Aside from writing the news channel. The behavior of this woman is just deplorable. I do not get someone saying that I have had this pet for 3 weeks and my family has bonded with it and it is tough twinkies the original family does not deserve to have their beloved pet returned.
There has been so much kindness and generosity since the day's after Katrina, so should this surprise me, NO, but it does piss me off.
I hope you will join me in prayer that their beloved dog/service dog is returned to the loving family that I am sure he misses he to is a victim of Katrina just like his family.
I get that he signed away Shuma, he had just arrived, he had just lost everything and his temp digs would not allow pet's. But they knew he was looking for a new home where his family could be together, including Shuma.
Not sure why this struck a nerve but it did.

I thought because of the disabilities act that a service dog could not be refused by an apartment.

That's the sketchy part to me.
Was the dog a true "service dog" or is the guy disabled and the dog is his pet. There is a difference. A "service dog" is allowed; the pet of a disabled man wouldn't necessarily be a "service dog."
Either way, the woman's being just plain mean to refuse the guy his dog...unless the dog showed signs of abuse when she accepted him.

What kind of heartlessness posesses this kooky woman?
To: krunkygirl
I wonder if she still has the dog, or if she sold it?

He walks with a cane. Shuma assists him. Is he a true service dog, I doubt it but he does aid him in his disability.
As you said, either way, the chick is plain mean.

I was wondering about that. It was not clear if she worked for the shelter. But, to watch in her in the earlier video's she has no concern for the family who just lost everything and so wants their beloved Shuma back.
This has really angered those in the Kansas City area. They feel she is mispresenting those that live here, that her tatics are not the norm. She seems to think it would be just easier if the original family buys a new pet. Goodness gracious.
I just figured this family could use all the positive good wishes and prayers.

Well, if she's got a boss, what the heck is he/she doing? Seems to me the boss could step in and take care of this right away. And I thought shelters often had a clause where if you changed your mind, say if circumstances changed, you could come and get your pet back within a certain number of days.

What a sad tale that need not have happened. Poor man has had to be uprooted and now he loses his dog?
Lots of prayers needed to shake the devil out of Ms Nevill and give her guidance to do what is right!
She states that her family have grown attached to the dog. Big deal. If she is going to be this hard hearted when a person desperate enough to find shelter for his family, she needs to find something else to do with her life. You need compassion for animals and it appears that she has none.
I hope that all the bad press with FORCE her to change her mind.
This has struck a nerve with me too and I am cross-eyed with anger at this woman.

A fully trained service dog is worth ten of thousands of dollars,
she needs to return it to the person it was trained for.
She needs to give it back to the person that needs it the most.

...
The kind that should not be in her line of work or near children or near the elderly. She's the type that takes advantage of the weak or temporarily disadvantaged for her own personal gratification. People should protest HER!

Prayers for this fellow and his dog--for the life of me, I cannot understand why this creature (hesitate to call her a woman) is doing this. The reason stated doesn't hold water.

Shame on this woman. She probably thinks the world always revolves around her. I have taken in stray dogs and have grown attached to them but nothing exceeds the excitement of a pet and its humane being united
