    Information to all rescue's

    Permission granted to cross post, this was sent to me not once but twice from two different rescue organizations. I want anyone in the Northeast region to be aware of this situation. Our local Humane Society sent out notifications to all local rescue groups.

    PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING... .

    Shelters/rescuers, (they claim to be) They are using diffrent names now. But, they are an african-american couple.
    claim to have a rescue in Rocky Mount, NC and are trying to get dogs
    from all over the Eastern Seaboard. (She offered to take 14 dogs
    since Monday.)
    She continues to take dogs. Most are pit bulls, with some offers to
    adopt Presa Canarios, Rottweilers, Dobermans, and Wolf hybrids. But, takes ALL different breeds. In
    addition, she had previously posted that her roommate was looking for
    a Great Dane or Great Dane mix. She also posted that she
    was "desperate" for a Chihuahua and she really wanted a
    Mini Pin and a Jack Russell. She claims her rescue is a pit bull
    rescue, but another pit rescuer called the local Animal Control.

    Animal Control's comments:
    "She's been barred from taking any dogs from the shelters in her
    area." He also said she has a long criminal history, has been selling
    Pit Bulls on street corners for 15 or 20 dollars and has been under
    investigation for dog fighting. Atlantic Rescue has now banned her,
    after finding out this information. These are the breeds she has
    asked for:
    a. Pit Bulls
    b. Rottwiellers
    c. Dobermans
    d. Presa Canarios
    e. Tea Cup Chihuahuas
    f. Jack Russell Terriers
    g. Shar Peis
    h. Min Pin
    i. Great Dane (Pure Breed or Mix)
    She uses the little dogs as bait! Please cross post. They are going
    out of their area looking for dogs to adopt

    PLEASE CROSS POST THIS AD AND LETS PUT A STOP TO THIS AT ONCE. THESE POOR DOGS ARE BEING PUT THROUGH HORRIFC CONDITIONS AND EVEN DEATH!

    They know all this, but not a name/aliases? Surely that would help...
    • Gold Top Dog
    Good point. I will get the names or aliases they are using and email you with that information.
     
    I think they didn't provide the names because that would be slander or some silly thing like that.

    I just wanted to avoid rescues being afraid to adopt to any couple, just because they match a very vague description and may want to legitimately adopt one on the MANY breeds listed is all. Thanks!

    As it's written yes, it could be something that could be construed as libel...esp the "criminal history", bit. Now that I look again, it's probably best they don't post names if they are leaving it as is. 
     
    If they'd left out the anecdotals, heresay, and stuck to facts they'd be able to post them.

    Seems to me I have heard this one before...I wonder if it might be in the archives.
