Apologies to Katherine (reply)

Dione — Wed, 24 Dec 2014 01:11:33 +0000

I worked all day today and am just catching up on this thread. Katherine I apologize if you felt that I was attacking you. I am very passionate about the SPAZ organization and was to curt in my post.

I am truly sorry for the misunderstanding. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Linda, Talley Ho, from now on to be known as Doggie Detectives, searched the whole situation down and followed through to the end. Great story, great ending, contribute to SPAZ when you can and frequent the restaurants that allow dogs, and boycott the ones that don't (even if you don't have dog,or yours is not with you...)

Good Work! (reply)

The sweet brown dog was just picked up. Natalia and Judith spent some time with her, said she was young, and they think she will find a home. She rode off with them in their laps, eating treats.

Happy Ending, Hopefully (reply)

Now that is very good news!

Not so simple way (reply)

Talley Ho — Tue, 23 Dec 2014 19:16:50 +0000

Because the combi's had stopped running for the evening.
Because they were closed.
Because we were hoping to, and did, make contact by by e-mail.
Because we were hoping to have an answer fairly quickly.
Yes, we live here, around the corner from you, 5 months a year.

the simple way (reply)

Why don't you just go down there and ask????
How is anybody, especially if they are not here in Zihua, know if SPAZ has room?

Happy Ending, Hopefully (reply)

LadyM in Zihua — Tue, 23 Dec 2014 16:16:52 +0000

May not always be easy, but things do work out for those who keep working at it. Thanks Talley Ho for following through for the dog you are helping.

Happy Ending, Hopefully (reply)

Talley Ho — Tue, 23 Dec 2014 15:09:15 +0000

Thanks to Natalia at SPAZ, she is being picked up this morning and taken in.
Hopefully things will work out for her.
We'll make yet another donation, and hopefully everyone else will to.
Merry Christmas!!!

Nice & Easy (reply)

Kidlets, I don't think Dione was ranting at anyone. I believe there was simply a slight misunderstanding and that she was passionately putting in a good plug for a noble and hard-working organization she supports, a misunderstanding that has since been clarified the ROUGH way, instead of the NICE & EASY way.

good to know (reply)

katherine — Tue, 23 Dec 2014 14:26:11 +0000

Good to know that people are donating.

I did (reply)

LadyM in Zihua — Tue, 23 Dec 2014 14:15:51 +0000

There are many of us who help out with the clinics and donate more than every year. Spaz does what it can, but they are limited by space and with funds. Certainly not perfect but they work hard for the animals.

I did (reply)

katherine — Tue, 23 Dec 2014 12:04:56 +0000

I felt like I was being criticized simply for saying that SPAZ sometimes releases animals when they do not have room to keep them. Which is simply the truth. And by a person who assumes that I have done nothing for this organization, when they really know nothing about me. I just wish people would not be so quick to assume the worst.

Thank you, Tess.

I donate and volunteer (reply)

katherine — Tue, 23 Dec 2014 11:45:27 +0000

I have donated many times, and also volunteered. This does not change the fact that animals will be released by SPAZ if they are not adopted and there is no room for them. The workers there have told me this. Honestly, is there no end to the self-righteousness on this board? Merry Christmas to all.

I was not criticizing SPAZ (reply)

katherine — Tue, 23 Dec 2014 11:43:35 +0000

It really upsets me that you would misinterpret my words and jump on me for no reason. I have volunteered with the spay/neuter campaign. I have donated many times. I simply explained that they do not have room for all of the cats and dogs that people bring to them.

. . . . . And Dione, your rant at Katherine was really misplaced. They do have limited space and cannot take in all animals. She paid for the spaying and yes, probably if there had not been someone already agreeing to adopt they would have released the dog after spaying it.

I didn't see anything in there that looked like a rant.

Good idea -- I just made donation. (reply)

These folks do great work. I just sent them a few bucks---how about the rest of us chipping in to make Christmas a little brighter for their furry kids!
