Psycho-woman!

Go buy a puppy from a reliable pet shop or breeder

Oh Yeah? You know what will happen to YOUR PUPPIES if they aren’t adopted in a certain amount of time?

Time to let the psycho go… Do you think the director wonders why none of the animals are getting adopted?

Mrs. “Baskerville”? (slow on the uptake, but) I get it! snarf

What is sad is that this actually happened at the SPCA near us this summer. The crazy woman was fired!

Now i understand, she’s still a stupid, awful character but at least there’s a reason behind it.

Find the boss, Laura, and report the incident right away!

Actually, I think some receptionist did not get her nuclear coffee today.

Laura…“hound” Mrs. Baskerville until she does something about that dog at the desk.

I don’t see the desk woman rescuing those dogs….

Twisted thinking. Wouldn’t her puppies be happier at a loving home than in cages? Where is this thread going?

nice flagfly… was going to make a hound of the baskervilles comment but you beat me to it ;)

Yes they are much better off in cages all day with maybe an hour to get outside and play a little bit. Sicko beyotch!

Why don’t you punch her lights out Laura?

I hope her puppies bite her then run away.

@Shyygirl27Too bad it’s the wrong reason.

This is the last of a series I am going to read (the strip is coming off my daily read list).

I think this is the finale that is supposed to be funny.

I will say for the record that this is in no way indicative of the Nebraska Humane Society or any other rescue organization I know any thing about.

And buying puppy-mill puppies is singularly bad advice.

This strip does bother me a bit. I understand the attitudes that are becoming more prevalent today, but in the case of animal rescue organizations, I have not seen (usually) volunteers as bad as the one portrayed here. Many/most do require an in home visit as well as a interview/vetting process. But DO NOT allow this to put you off, it is the BEST way to ensure the safety and compatability of the animals they adopt out. Taking in a rescue dog is a huge responsibility and not one to be entered into lightly. It is in the best interest of both the animal and the adoptees to do this. I have adopted 2 beagles recently from the Huron Valley Animal Shelter in Ann Arbor, MI, and I cannot praise them enough. This process ensures that the animal is truly adopted into the family, as they should, and are not just a cash transaction. Investigate wherever you intend to get the animal, be patient enough to go through the process and you will be more aware and satisfied when you add that new special addition to your family.
