Well written. Unfortuatly there are some on here that think just like Ms Nevill and believe she should be able to keep the dog. Satan certainly seems to have a strong hold with these sad individuals.
Prayers that Shuma is reunited with family soon! :)
No, he said he raised it himself from a puppy so it was not a pretrained dog.
I agree. There is something fundamentally wrong with any individual who actively dislikes animals.
AMEN!
You are so wrong on all of your statements and it sickens me to see what you have to say.
I hope the local media continue to ride this story with a vengence.
Put so much public pressure on this woman that she can't show her face without people hounding (l'il pun) her!
When I was a teenager there was a guy I knew who used to take little kittens and put them beneath the rear wheel of his car and then "peel out" on them. I put the people you are referring to in the same category as this sick twisted individual.
I get the impression that the author used the term "service animal" very loosely here, which is causing all the confusion. Had it been a true service dog, he could have gone anywhere his owner went.
That being said, what a BEOTCH this woman is. She took advantage of a disabled man in a desperate situation. I hope she is shunned by her entire community, and is shamed into giving the dog back.
If the story is true, I have a feeling she won't be able to deal with the bad publicity and will give the dog back. And her employer better lean on her, because publicity like this just CAN'T be good for business.
Give Shuma Back! BUMP
Whether the dog is a trained service dog or not is irrelevant. The dog did aid his master, at least by his love and devotion, and he and his master are bonded. It is heartless and cruel and vile for the witch to keep the dog and his master separated because she and her horrible family have "bonded" to the dog, after a mere three weeks. Sadly, it does not sound as if the ADA will be able to help the man-if it's not a registered service dog, I don't see how they can become involved, either against the Neville thing or against people refusing to rent to a dogowner. But with a pro bono lawyer, I believe a judge will be able to void the "contract" here, as the man(having fled from Katrina)was obviously under duress, as another freeper pointed out above. I hope so anyway. Hopefully, a little public shaming will and fear of bad publicity will make the Neville creature retract her harpy claws from the dog and return him to the rightful owner.
>No, he said he raised it himself from a puppy so it was not a pretrained dog.<
Too bad his dog isn't certified, because I'd love to see this woman, not to mention the apartment building, nailed to the wall for treating this poor guy in such a way.
This woman sounds like a major, selfish, horse's behind (my apologies to horses everywhere).
ROFL!
I'm stealin' that....;))
I don't usually use this language, unless it is really earned, what an f'ing beaatch!
Our dog had a vet visit for allergies this week. He was away from us for about 5 hours (while we waited outside, for awhile anyway). Since we have had him, he has never been away from us and home at the same time. When they finally brought him back out to us, he was barking and doing back flips. He had the whole waiting area laughing at his happiness to see his family.
I couldn't imagine not giving a dog back to their owner in this situation. Unreal woman.
They can't.
It's some kind of sick, freakish compulsion.
My hubby trained his labs to get beer out of the fridge or a cooler. He never had to take his own beer to football tailgates. He would ask people if his dog got a beer out of their cooler, could he have it. Only problem, the dog could also open the fridge for venison steaks, ham or anything else he was hungry for. My hubby had to put a lock on the side. RIP, Tyler and Trigger, we still miss you.
"There is something fundamentally wrong with any individual who actively dislikes animals."
I avoid those personality types at all costs and am usually vindicated, one way or another, eventually.
I just e-mailed the local (MO) T.V. station to let them know that people around the country are becoming aware of this story.
If public awareness continues to mount and pressure builds, Ms.Nevill just might get the message: you will be persona non grata everywhere you go if you do not do the right thing!
Yep. I'll give this a "there's more to this story" bump.
I think he can still take her to small claims court, and he would probably win.
