I sent a request to Sanmarie Jacobsz from the Dachshund Rescuse SA or Dachshund Rescue South Africa. she asked if she can call me at 13:00 on 06 Aug 2024. i spoke to her over the phone about adopting a long haired dachshund Penelope which has been up for adoption for about 3 months on the facebook website. i gave her all the details she requested as per the requires listed on the facebook page. Although i am in the Eastern Cape i requested to either pay for the flights to fly her to me or i fly to Gauteng and back with her on my lap at my own costs and she said cargo would be to stressful but on my lap is fine. i sent her videos of our home inside and outside as well as the dog ramps for our bed and couch as they use. I have no kids, no big dogs only dachshunds and no cats, we have a secure walled yard, no open driveways or swimming pools. we feed hills as well as raw chicken feet and heads. she advised me on that day that she has another home that would like to adopt as well. i sent the videos then she said that they decided not to fly her but only option is to lift on the seat with you which i said is fine this was 12 Aug 2024 then never heard anything again. 13 Aug 2024 i sent a whats app to follow up. She requested videos and said she didnt see anything but they were sent on 12 Aug 2024. then Sanmarie asked again what food do i feed, access to the house, where do they stay when we not at home then she advised me that there are to applications in Gauteng so no need to fly this was the friday. Now the response changes that forster app**** and they have first choice and the DRSA decided not to fly. she said if they have any others in the Cape some time she will advise. the list of requirements did not say must have access to inside house via doggy door or that you need to be retired and she keeps changing everytime. when i asked on the facebook page that i was interested in adopting Penelope the facebook site responded to my message and requested my number as Sanmarie doest not recall dealing with me. my concern is that who is the person on the rescue that i was communicating with when Sanmarie has whatsapping me the day before now i have been blocked from this facebook page and she whats apped me messages at midnight and blocked me there to and said it is all about me and not the animal. i am an animal ***** that treats her furbabies like humans and they sleep in our bed and are spoilt rotten and anyone that sees them knows that they are looked after. i am concerned that these dogs are they really up for adoption? this is a non profit organization but why was the name changed:
Dachshund Rescue South Africa - started in June 2013 which is deregistered Why (Inactive)
Now called The Dachshund Rescue SA - started 2022 which is in the process of registration again as to a new NPC number with new directors?
why delete my facebook posts and block me when all i asked is to adopt so something is not right and on Saturday 17th Aug 2024 she sent me a long whats app message that it is all about me and i didnt complete the forms and that i kept on whats apping her instead of calls and that i throw nonsense is truly unbelivalbe and that i am so entitled to her bla bla bla and blocked me from facebook. I have read numerous responses on facebook and hellopeter about this lady Sanmarie that this is what she does to alot of people trying to adopt. Maybe the our directors of this organization need to answer what is going on as blocking people from facebook and threats is discussing and maybe for the sake of the animals that she been investigated to see what is being said is correct or not so that the money donations, etc are being used for what they are supposed to be.
