I recently found a dog that was going to be put down because his owners couldn't care for him anymore. Being an animal lover, I couldn't let this happen and I intervened. I took the dog into my care temporarily while trying to find a new home for him. I have never rehomed a pet so I didn't know how to go about it, therefore I contacted the people at Wetnose to ask for assistance. I was truly heartbroken and disappointed at the outcome of my "conversation" with them. I explained the situation and said that I understand shelters are always full, and that I am willing to foster the dog until I can find him a new home. I was willing to make donations and do whatever was required of me. I took him to my vet and had his dental and physical health checked, had him dewormed, treated for ticks and fleas, and innoculated. All I needed from the people at Wetnose was help in finding him a home. After my whole story, the only thing that was said to me was "Sorry, we are busy. We can't help you." And the phone was promptly put down in my ear. These are people who claim to love animals and to have their best interests at heart... and they care so little about a dog in need that they are completely unwilling to even direct me to a rehoming shelter that could be able to help. I am so disappointed in Wetnose, and it breaks my heart that the people who are supposed to be giving a voice to animals who don't have a voice of their own, are so completely uncaring. We desparately need shelters and rehoming agencies in this country that actually care about animals, because Wetnose sure doesn't.
