my little brother has been killing my parents for a year now to get a dog and they finally caved in today. waiting for the final paperwork to be finished by Thursday, a year old boston terrier.

--edit--

cant pick it up till thursday, so no pics till then.

the dog has only been there for a couple of days and they are waiting for the owners to show up, if they dont by thursday its my brothers.


***UPDATE***

Somy mom goes to the pound at 8 to pick up the dog in the morning. The pound says you have to wait till 9 since someone else wants the dog too. So the dog goes up for auction. It turns out the other people that want the dog are the Southern California Boston Terrier or something group. The dog goes as high as $250 and my mother stops. The group told my mom if you don't bid against us you can have the dog for 200 - 250, but if you bid it will be higher. The pounds asks this group what they will do is that they will find the dog a "loving" home and the guy at the pound goes they are already a loving home with a child, my brother, who wants the dog. Long story short, greed took over.


Cliffs

1. Go to pound to rescue a dog
2. Get into a bidding war with a dog rescue center
3. Center wins
4. Leave emty handed thanks to some greed.

THIS SUCKS ASS


**UPDATE 3***

BASTAGES REPLIED WITH SOME NONSENSE JUSTIFYING THEIR GREED IN 8 PARAGRAPHS!!!

if bored please by all means read on.

That's messed up. Do they know who the owners are? Or are they just waiting to see if anyone shows up to say they lost their dog?

Thank you for not looking for something just born. Once puppies outgrow their cuteness factor, so many get returned or abandoned. Thank you.

I had a Boston Terrier many years ago. He could snore as loud as a drunk pirate and his farts would melt the hairs in your nose.

that's the goofiest, most messed up thing I've heard all day.

you really oughta go hunt up all the boston terrior rescue e-lists you can find and tell 'em what a disreputable thing they did.. that's not rescuing a dog, that's depriving one of a good home.

:roll:
