What kind of lowlife dumps their dog when it develops a health problem?

Have you ever been to Compton, CA?

Ha. About 1/2 of California for the last 3 years. And it doesn't have to be a health problem, just Christmas coming is enough reason. They were recently lined up around the block at Lancaster to drop off their dogs.

California is the worst place ever for a dog. I have a handful of rescued ones at my place from shelters down there.

We’re on our 3rd GSD rescue. Our latest guy had health issues, his owners said they were moving and couldn’t take him. Yeah, right. He was 8 when we got him, he’s 14 now. Sure, he has some issues, what 14 year old dog doesn’t? I love GSD’s. We’re going to take a break after this one, since we rescue elder dogs. Everyone want’s puppies or young dogs, we take in the ones no one wants. It is fabulous!

Take a look at the story at the link, this happened earlier this year:

The volunteer who went out to the shelter thought she was giving LiLi a last day out, turned out she was in better health than thought.

She was adopted by a billionaire's family two weeks after being dumped in a high kill shelter and is now living comfortably in a multimillion dollar home overlooking Newport Beach.
