… I’ll be sure to check with all the mods/admins to check veracity.

Thing is, I have established a _trust_ here, and that means _all_ Dopers, and I’m right there when I **can** be. Y’all were there when **I** needed **you** and that’s just the way Dopers are and the way I want to be.

But asking for money for giving up up your pet and when you badly need to find it a home is just _wrong_, no matter _where_ the request is posted.

My plan was to get some rescues/fosters lined up, but I can tell you _right now_ that none of them will pay to take pets in.

And that’s it, as far as I’m concerned.

I will do _anything_ I can to help the four-footed ones, but I will NOT help sell them!

Thanks

Bill

How about a little more detail for those of us who don’t follow your exploits with a magnifying glass and/or can’t read your mind?

We understand where you’re coming from here – let’s handle this off the board, okay?

I’m sending you an email.

Quasimodem is referring to this thread –

Due to a miscommunication Quasi thought Time Like Tears was asking for a fee for someone to take her dog – this is not the case and never was.

Time Like Tears does need your help as outlined in the MPSIMS thread.

Both Time Like Tears and myself have communicated with Quasi and the situation should be straight now. Please let me know if it’s not.
