Need a foster home for a 9 month old Cane Corso X

And? You see this a bad thing, when it isnt. The same group of people can go to a Pet Store, Back Yard Breeder :)razz:) or the Amish market and get the same dog. Here are the 2 scenarios
  • Dog works out, has a home lives life in Doggy Heaven
  • It doesnt work out (whatever reason) the Dog will end up at Tri-County anyways
At least the Dog had a chance.


Where is the oversight? Do we need to bring up PorkChop and the Failures of the Rescue to divulge his tendencies, and admission they wouldnt bring them up to any future prospects?

What about Rescues that make it so difficult that they actually defeat the purpose? When you make it so hard to adopt, people will say F-It and go get a dog somewhere else.

In instances where the Rescue got it right, a motivated buyer will go elsewhere to get the animal, and then the Shelter ends up with yet ANOTHER dog, what did the Rescue solve?

NS!! No where in that thread did it say something would not be fully disclosed...but that thread was put to rest. How can it be a bad thing for a rescue to pull a dog who would be put to sleep...and then for the dog to eventually end up in the best forever home?? Please explain.:popcorn:

ill be honest- i dont get it either. why cant she adopt the dog out??

TCAS does not adopt certain breeds to the general public. If the dogs are not taken by a rescue then they are euthanized. This is why KK is looking for a foster until a permanent home is found.

Your are right....
At least the Dog had a chance. Possibly a good chance, possibly not


Where is the oversight? Do we need to bring up PorkChop and the Failures of the Rescue to divulge his tendencies, and admission they wouldnt bring them up to any future prospects? As far as I know THIS is the first rescue Pork Chop has been in and FYI, anyone interested will get the entire story and that's why we have an application so we can make sure they are qualified to handle his issues, not just their word.
What about Rescues that make it so difficult that they actually defeat the purpose? When you make it so hard to adopt, people will say F-It and go get a dog somewhere else. Why do we make it difficult??? Because we have time, love and money tied up with our foster dogs and when we get it placed we try our best to make sure the dog never winds up back at the shelter, which is against the contract BTW, or back with the rescue group. And when that happens it usually comes back with more issues as the owner really didn't know what they were doing.

In instances where the Rescue got it right, a motivated buyer will go elsewhere to get the animal, and then the Shelter ends up with yet ANOTHER dog, what did the Rescue solve? We can't save them all, we save the one's we can and do the best we can.

Anyway we still need a foster home for this girl!

What rescue failed to divulge his tendencies. He was never with a rescue.

Pit and Mastiff mixes????

That girl looks like a Lab Boxer mix to me, adopt her out.


By the way, who is the all knowing pro that determines what mixes these dogs are?

No it doesnt, she was a stray but she had to come from somewhere. Ding 1 (shelter) and Ding 2 (home before shelter) are just out of order

Hmmmm, I'm thinking changes start with the environment when the dog ends up in the shelter,, but nonetheless,, want to foster.:yahoo:

It is determined at the shelter, by who there...not sure. There are many times vets can't even figure some out.

Your post - see #8 - stated "foster home to foster home". The original home and shelter are not foster homes. A short stay in one foster home for a day or two or a week is not a lot of time. Something most dogs do when they are boarded when people take vacations, travel for jobs, etc. and they adjust very well when that time is over.

Here is unixpirate showing she knew the dog was aggressive (PC=PorkChop)

Here is jwwb (Note the "new" owners dispute the disclosure)

And here's Krazd Kat

Sorry, you inferred that it was not disclosed by a rescue when it was stated that all will be disclosed even if the rescue doesn't believe there is a real issue if with an experienced owner.
You also stated PC came from a rescue when he did not,,, he came from a shelter. Let's not just pick out of a long thread the statements that you think prove your comments....

Bump!!

Here we go again.... :howdy: there is a sweet 9 month old female Cane Corso mix in the shelter and of course she's not up for adoption to the public.

She's a sweet girl which is why the shelter has kept her past her euthanasia date. She came in as a stray so nothing is known about her. I had to laugh when we were in the play yard and she realized she could run free.... to see her run w/her front legs all splayed out was hilarious!

Please if anyone can help foster her until we can get her adopted or an opening in one of our other foster homes, please let me know!

Just to get back to the subject!!!

Call it whatever you want, Pork Chop was an example where someone who had the dog, didnt disclose agressive tendencies because they mistook them for "normal" behaviour (as the continued excuses for the aggressive behavior that were cited). The New Owners then had their neighbors dog attacked because they didnt know of his tendencies. I then showed where it was felt Pork Chop wasnt an issue dog, and they werent going to disclose that he was.

If you mistakenly inferred something thats on you.

Not a true statement, btw, do you not like animals? Anywho, why the pissing match here.....dog is in need of a foster home!!! Just something I am inferring from your previous posts....if you have or ever think of getting any pets, stick with a pet rock, just a thought!:biggrin:

My post 23 answered that (see items in red)


Krazd Kat wanted someone to foster her until she could be adopted or fostered. Going from foster home to foster home, like i stated, based on Krazd Kats original post.

First instance, foster until adopted = 1 foster home. Mostly what happens.
Second instance, temporary foster (one day, one week, etc) until Permanent foster is found = two fosters. Permanent meaning until a "home-family" (not another foster) is found. Either way you look at it, most would be two foster homes. Not something a dog cannot adjust to and certainly better than being put down. Problem seems to be with your terminology. You count shelter and permanent home and lump that into "foster".

Anyway, you're really not interested or care what happens so Kat is right, for those that do care let's get this girl out of the shelter!

At least your comments keep this thread alive.

I'm out...time to go rotate all of the dogs in foster care...foster to foster to foster to foster...where will they all end up tonight :sarcasm:

Now dont show your bias towards Crabs. I happen to know a sweet loving crab, never had a problem * in his life, who would love nothing more than to have a doggy buddy.







* problem in this case means he didnt act any differently or aggressively than any other Crab, which means i dont have to disclose the he does have aggressive traits.

Sorry * NS...

* you lost me!!:dye:

Unless you know the entire story, you need not say anything about the situation.

WOW........are you really that dumb?

Krazd,

I know of someone who could possibly do it. They have a 7 year old English Mastiff and a 2 year old English Bulldog. Is the dog good with other pets?
