In reply to the discussion: Is there anyone in the Philidelphia area that can help a DUer find housing for her and large dog? [View all]mnhtnbb
(33,388 posts)to inquire whether what Yoshi has been put through--and now back at the doggie daycare/boarding
with little hope of being picked up by TTW to move into stable housing--rises to the level of neglect/
abuse of an animal under Pennsylvania law? Because if the SPCA feel they can make a case, they
would have reason to remove Yoshi and perhaps ultimately get him to the Akita rescue group.
It would really be better for someone who's had interaction with TTW--by PM, phone, or in person--
to make that call to the SPCA.
To me, it seems about the only thing anyone can do to help Yoshi at this point. I have said previously
that the kind of help that TTW needs cannot be provided by DU, because until she faces her need
for serious mental health treatment, throwing money at her unemployed/living situation is not going
to help.
