The last twenty four hours have both of us here thinking we're completely nuts and a few minutes ago it occurred to me to ask you all for your opinions.
In a nutshell :
Saw a rescue dog online that looked like what we're looking for the other day.
Only 1 photo and it's ok, but it doesn't clearly show the dog. The dog in the photo seems held down at the collar, sitting, with his head looking up toward the ceiling, sort of. real hard to judge, but our interest peaked quickly.
Started correspondence !
Asked for a better picture. Sent 5 photos of Tiki so they could compare and render an opinion.
We have argued, yes argued ever since.
They cannot or will not supply a good photo.
They totally ignored several submissions of the Tiki photos.
They pushed for the application to be filled out even though we hadn't been able to make a decision on initial interest because of the photo and disregard for our requests.
We told them we'd give the app with rock solid references for 35 years but still needed something to give us an idea as to whether we'd be taking a 230 mile trip or not.
Disregarded like they either can't comprehend or choose not to comprehend.
Today two of our Vets call me on the cell to ask for authorization to release medical info on Tiki, but suggest not doing it. Said the caller/s were rude and very pushy, expecting them to drop what they were doing. Both offices said that that something seems wrong with the way they were handling the attempted adoption.
But what ? Makes no sense to us or any friends or colleagues.
To be interested you need to see something. Then you go to the next step.
Anyway, the whole thing has turned into a bitter mess, the wife is a basket case as she was hopeful, and I'm just sitting here kinda in disbelief at the whole thing. Just answered another snotty stuck up email that just doesn't understand what we're trying to say.
Are we nuts ? Thanks in advance.
