Stupid people

I know...my posts have been a bit like complaints lately but this IS zoo related!

Got a call this morning...you know, SUNDAY morning at 7:30...."Christine, it's Bill Brush, I adopted Roy from you. I am done with him, I don't want him anymore. I signed a contract saying I would bring him back to you and I am coming out that way today for a hockey game. Can I bring him today? We are getting ready to leave now. He has been peeing on the floor" Me-- "Did you do do a urine test?" Him--"I did every test you said we needed to do, even a stool check"....HUH? A stool check always tells us if a dog has a UTI so THAT makes PERFECT sense! He claims the vet advised them to take food AND water away at SEVEN in the evening. Whatever....any half-way intelligent vet would say that if a perfectly trained dog starts peeing on the floor that a urine test should be done. He apologized for "doing this, this close to the holiday"....I said it was no problem that he probably just had an infection and would be fine. To which he replied "I had him to the vet and had every test known to man done"....OK idiot bring him back to me now before I have to hunt you down and have ROB beat your face in! UGH!

So yes, Sunday, four days before Christmas...one day prior to starting my job....I am getting a bounce AND a Beagle from another foster home who is going out of town for the holiday. That will bring me up to FOUR foster dogs! The good news is, Rob will probably kill me and end my suffering very soon!
