What a snot!

I was keeping an eye out the front window today for my neighbor to pull up with my children from school. Suddenly a little beagle comes wandering down the sidewalk across the street, no human in sight.

I can clearly see its collar and tags. Going outside my front door, I call it and it comes across the street right to me, licks my arms and hands, a happy critter.

Within moments it starts to lightning and hail.

2 of my dogs flip out and are NOT keen on this beagle so I got it (not easily) into Shelby's crate and shut the bedroom door with the help of my kids.

The number on the tags is disconnected.

I post at Freecycle begging if anyone can even please drive it to the shelter or something, that I'm a disabled mom and it's illegal for me to drive.

I call no less than 8 places--PACC, Humane Society, breed rescues, animal control, you name it.

Suddenly I receive two NASTY emails chewing me out, telling me everything I SHOULD have done in their eyes (that I already DID), including DRIVE IT TO THE SHELTER and continuing to chew me out.

They obviously could read since they emailed me but how nasty! Cookie (yes it's real name) would have been run right over in that blinding storm had I not grabbed it. Bunch of snots! No good deed goes unpunished, I tell you.

And yes I finally found a rescue group with someone available that is on the way over.
