Update on TTW and Yoshi

[bettyellen]

116. Misanthrope is still being vilified as conspiring to dog-nap and dog food thief. Very detailed accusations

were made, and I do believe at this point that Misanthrope was misinformed about Yoshi, and it led to endangering her ex, their kid and their pet. In addition, the police were called to investigate this "dog theft".

That is hella fucked up, and anyone here considering helping her needs to know that TTW has backed away from calling Yoshi an "attack dog" who might bite anyone, to a safe and suitable companion to have in their home- because it suits her current need to do so.
She is putting Yoshi's life in danger, as well as Ms + MP, and now- her new landlord and their tenants as she hopes they will provide daycare to Yoshi soon.

People inundated her threads with great local resources, job leads, offers for lodging and all sorts of other help- all ignored, she wanted money. She has physical and medical issues that need attention and could go to a clinic for- but will not. She had just 1000. donated to Yoshi's care since he was sick, but was shilling for more money to (finally) get him to a vet yesterday.

She actually complained angrily that the thread filled with resources (in February) was too big to read. So she did not bother. We cannot force her to use services, she already knows of them and showed no interest in anything but cash. We can't get her to be rational and take care of herself. But if she uses that dog as a fundraising device and blows the money elsewhere while Yoshi is still sick, yes she should be called on it. If she rewards people who did their very best to help her and Yoshi with threats of lawsuits and visits from the police- people here should know that too.

I too wish we had housing and services like the UK, but DU cannot do that for her. I worry for her dog and her landlord both, as she cannot seem to help but hurt all those around her right now.
