There is a reason I am not very fond of people. Most everyone I have meant has either been a snake or a liar. If you follow my site you know that on the 22nd my dog Yoda bit me. This wasn’t the first bite, but it was the last and it has indeed cost him his life.
I knew if he ever went to the animal shelter he wouldn’t come out alive, however, I had hope when I went to talk to them on Saturday. I was told to bring a trainer in and if the trainer was willing to work with him and if he said Yoda could be helped, then there was a possibility a small one that Yoda would be able to come home. I wasn’t going to put my daughter’s life before my dogs.
I was however, willing to do whatever I could to help Yoda, even if he didn’t come home to me. I was going to pay thousands for him to be vetted and properly trained.
Today, was the day my husband and I was to meet with the trainer at the shelter. I had a feeling things weren’t going to go well. Sure enough as soon as I told the shelter why I was there this bitch behind the counter said… “That dog isn’t leaving this shelter”. They agreed to let the trainer look at him, Yoda was so happy to see my husband he was wagging his tail jumping up wanted my husband to get him out of there.
The people in the shelter said that was the best he has been since he has been there… You think, he is in a strange place, he has people walking by him most the day, he is fucking scared!
The trainer said he was willing to work with him if the shelter would release him. Said it would take a lot of work, but he was willing to help. Before I spoke with him I talked to another trainer, who claimed to work with a rescue and with aggressive dogs, she gave me a lot of hope. Would have cost $600 just for the training with her, she stated “very rarely a dog cannot be helped”. This all went out the door though when she started talking to the shelter people…
Needless to say I left the shelter being told my dog wouldn’t make it out alive. Everyone up there lied to me about his fate, the trainers I both spoke with, I caught both of them in lies. These people all claim to be for the animals, but not one of them told me to my face anything that showed they were for the animal. They all had a lot to say behind the computer screen when they new I was willing to do what I could to save my dog.
His 10 day quarantine is up on Saturday or Sunday, and after that he will probably be put down. This kills me, I tried my hardest to save him and I yet again failed. The shelter did agree to call me if or should I say when they were going to put him down, and they agreed to release his body to me so that I could get him cremated and bring him home.
So I do indeed get to bring him home, but it will be his ashes.
One will say it is just a dog, but what they fail to realize is that dog was a part of my family.
I am so sorry Yoda, I wish when I noticed signs of aggression, I got you help before it was to late, now you will die all because your human mommy failed you. I will forever love and miss you.

Hello, Jammie! I love your blog and this story touched me so much! And I also am so sorry for your dog. Anyway, I do hope that your are getting on well now.
Thank you for your concern. This is a very difficult time for my family, and it has shown the true colors of people within my community. I don’t wish this on anyone who has owned a pet. It’s something I will have to learn to deal with in my own way. Please note, your comment has been edited to remove advertising. If you would like me to look at a certain website and give my opinion please take a moment to properly contact me. Contacting me about your site on a post about my family member who is about to be put down is down right tacky and disgusting.
I am so sorry for previous comment. I didn’t mean to upset you.
