I'm not a regular but did get really invested in the whole dog-thread. And in all of the stuff over the last few days. This is the first time I've felt the need to reply.
I have no idea what is going on, nor am I pretending to. I just went to the website to confirm that it was the one we were talking about in vaba's mega-dog-thread, and clicked on adoptable animals, because....well, puppies. And there she was. That's her, right? And around the right age?
Also, this dog was NOT on the website when that all went down. Because I looked then, too.
Is there a chance this freakshow found the pup on the website and said, "This puppy matches my next fucked-up story perfectly?"
Guys, I edited above. This dog was not in their list of adoptable animals when she did the whole shelter hullabaloo. I looked for Phoebe on the site that day.
When I started getting doubts about the story (and called the shelter) I thought maybe she gave her dog up and just came here to create a sad sob story about it. I think she came here and posted about the dog on 3/21
WELL I GUESS THAT'S WHY THERE WERE NO PICTURES AFTER THE FACT. AND WHY SHE SAW HER DOG'S PICTURE ON THEIR WEBSITE. BECAUSE SHE PUT HER THERE!
The website date says the dog came in on 3/18. Vaba's post was done on 3/21.
So the whole story might have been true, except vaba ever tried to rnetrieve her. Or vaba herself abandoned her, due to circumstances, and made up the mom-friend angle.
It sounds like she really gave up her dog even though she collected $280. And her whole "she's on the way to the vet to get fixed now and we're in a hotel room waiting for her!" crap was just that. Crap.

this is also my assumption. She owner surrendered her and then made up the nutty story about her mom's friend giving her up.

Yep, that's what I'm thinking. It might've just taken the shelter a few days to get the profile of the dog on the website, so that's why it wasn't there on 3/21 when you looked.
