Do not blame this woman for the condition she is in, the state her dog is in and the state her life is in. She is mentally ill and not capable of making rational decisions. At least the dog is in a safe, warm and caring place for the time being. That's not a bad thing. There is no need to pin human sentiment onto the animal's disposition. For all we know he's glad to be rid of her, everyone else sure is. Hell, he was probably pissed when she showed up at the shelter.
When the time comes that the dog daycare can no longer look after the animal, or TTW disappears, the daycare owner can seek legal means to have the animal put into a rescue or relinquished to the shelter. For all we know, that action could already be in the works, so everyone just needs to back up and stay out of the situation from here on out.
Pisses me off that people here care more about the damn dog than the human.
