Response to DNA Post


CM Dolly Bonnie I am cat tails in Naples , I rescue mostly from puppy mills in miami
I know Carolyn for years and I can tell you she is not the monster they're making of her here
Yes she had too many dogs when the Neighborh reported her to animal control ...
She had just take a group of dogs from other state
They where waiting for their appointment to be fully vetted then go to their foster homes
Also other group have had and emergency and she took a couple of dogs to help until the foster was available
Carolyn's life is the rescue ... she won't just won't make money on it ... she pays from her pocket most of those bills
As you can see an adoption fee of 150.00 for a dog who is fully vetted included surgery is too much for some adopters ..
I have meet Carolyn at mid night a Saturday to take dogs that were drove from Louisiana in terrible conditions ( her volunteers drive the trailer ) if not taken by a rescue those dogs would have being euthanized...
She found fosters for 23 but two had nowhere to go ... I took them as I had available fosters
Carolyn has her own bully ... sad part those won't care who they're hurting
And people is quick to put down persons who have being of service to the community ...
We all make mistakes and if Carolyn had other situations on her personal life it is nobody's business ...
She does what many others who are here ripping her wouldn't do.

CM Dolly She has just got those dogs and The person who called AC knew it ...
There were no sick animals those have just being rescued and where going to foster homes ...they called it cruelty because there were " too many"
That's the problem , they won't specify why they're charging her ...
She hasn't abuse an animal , they said she is a hoarder because of the number of animals but they didn't took the time to check the facts and contact other people in the group ...I had fosters available and could have take some of those already traumatized dogs ,but they just went ahead and made a big deal of it ...

By the way ...I used to give especial attention to any publication from DNA Florida and take it seriously ,even print the names and keep it on my files ...
But after this I see you are just spreading what you heard without checking facts ...
Those DNA means do not adopt?
Carolyn rescues ,takes sick unwanted dogs then she looks for families ...she is not interested on adopting !
If you have doubts just go to the petsmart in pagefield
Saturday and see the dogs she has there for adoption ...meet her ... Then decide if you are being fair

CM Dolly Is that animal cruelty ?
I have a dog who escapes every time he has a chance ...can guarantee you he is not abused
I am not saying she didn't make mistakes ...
She new she couldn't have more dogs at her house ...those dogs just arrived and where going to foster homes ...we can't take dogs to a foster without shots and meds for fleas and ticks as that will put in risk the foster person dogs
All I am saying is she is not a person who will be cruel with an animal ...
And is unfair that now you are spreading her past mistakes taking the chance she is on a hard spot
Have you never make mistakes ?
Guess what , I have make lots ...today I will do wherever it takes to defend an animal but only 13 years ago I wouldn't give a shit about dogs ...people changes ...people makes mistakes and people grows …

DNA Florida We do not rely on rumors, public records were obtained
These past "mistakes" have to do with the welfare of animals. THAT is what this page is about.
