Male GSD found - Page 2

Was the dog scanned for possible microchip??? If not .. then it seems to me that all has not been done (in the dogs best interest) to find the rightful owner. I would then question if this were not an attempt to use the situation with this dog as an opprtunity to try and solicit buisness

BE AWARE I ALSO SENT AN EMAIL TO YOUR SHUTZUND E.MAIL ABOUT THE TATTOO, WHICH THEY SHOULD KNOW ABOUT. THEY HAVE YET TO ANSWER ME. WISE UP PEOPLE PLEASE PROTECT YOUR PETS. OUR WEBSITE IS IN THE ORIGINAL NOTICE BY CHRIS, OR EMAIL OR CALL 1800 828-8667 FOR ANY QUESTIONS

JMHO.

I think anyone who watches this board on a regular basis can see that when it comes to the well being of a lost or found dog, even those of us whom may disagree on aregular basis come together for the good of that dog.

I just called the breeder. He has talked to Julie already and is getting his records out to provide contact info for the owner.
Personally, I think the response time was pretty quick. Julie called us last night and the breeder is found and cooperating 24 hours later. That proves that the dog world sticks together and that UscA came through as well - even though I have become disenchanted with them (the amendment to the bylaws).
Thank you everybody!!

See thread: GSD TATTOOED FOUND REPLY and the replies there. But, this is not an attempt to solicit buisness.

JULIESUE, i THINK YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE THE TIME TO READ SOME OF THE POST HERE BEFORE YOU COME OUT WITH YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT PEOPLE AND ORGANIZATIONS NOT CARING OR BEING RESPONSIBLE.

If your only and legit concern is getting this dog reunited with it's rightful owner, you should be less condeming and alot more patient. It is and was your tone and accusations towards the breeder and organization yesterday that made me question your motives. Today I am convinced that your motives are pure monetary and not about doing the right thing. Please don't come on here and try a use scare and guilt tactics to solicit buisness. You obviouisly do not know or understand how much our dogs and the well being of others dogs mean to us.  Up until your two post today I was thinking "not a bad idea, might be worth checking into" now however, I wouldn't even consider.

Juliesue:  If you have been contacting the USA office with no response regarding 4 or 5 dogs a WEEK,  Please provide the tattoo numbers, dates you contacted USA, and the names of the people you spoke with regarding the 20 dogs (give or take) from the last month.  Obviously there is a great big black hole somewhere, especially since it took them less than a day to respond once contacted by Molly.  Perhaps you have the wrong phone number or are contacting the wrong organization?  Something just doesn't make sense here.

I have the same question Sueincc just asked.  If what you have claimed is true, I would like to see some proof.  If you can in fact prove these statements many of us would like to know so it can be addressed at the USA level.

If you choose not to post this proof, not just claims, on one of the two active threads you can message me with the information. 

Julie you sent me two PMs telling me I can call you for the information.  I would prefer you send me the information via PM if for whatever reason you are not comfortable posting it on the open board.    Please provide the tattoo numbers of the approximately 20 dogs you have been called on in the last month that have USA tattoo numbers, the dates you called USA office about these dogs,  and the names of the people you spoke with, and what their response to you was. 

Also are you sure these 4 to 5 dogs you hear about each week are all part of USA?  There are a number of other tattoo organizations, and GSDCA WDA also has a tattoo program.  Have you contacted them to see if any of these dogs can be traced through other tattoo registries?

I'm sorry, but I am not going to call you, as I prefer to have a record of all our correspondence.  I'm sure you understand.

I do want you to know that in regards to this lost dog,  I am very grateful that you have gone the extra mile to find the owners of a dog who's tattoo is not even registered with your company.  I am sure the breeder is also grateful, as will be the owner of the dog, once this is straightened out.  As was said by others, the owners of the dog may not be aware he is lost.  They might be on vacation, he might have escaped from a boarding situation, there are a number of valid reasons why it might take a couple days to reach him/her.  I can tell you if it was my dog, I would be so relieved that you went to so much trouble to reunite me with my beloved dog. 

ANYONE KNOW THE FATE OF THE DOG????

BUMP

The tattoos called to us on German Shepherds  is indeed approx 4 or 5 a week, I do not always call USA, because most of these ear tattoos are done by clamps and they fade so people cannot id them perfectly. Unless it is perfect USA can't help. also it does not have to be thier code, but the owner can tattoo whatever they want. I would suggest to those of you who have dogs with ear tattoos that are not readable to have them retattooed on the flank or belly by pen type. This is a painless procedure that you can watch the 13 min video showing several dogs being tattooed at all ages done in a few minutes each.if interested home page www.tattoo-a-pet.com
. ours do not fade we have very capable vets and tattooist. This is not a solicitation of your business, but merely for your pets protection, if you wish.
also a recovery we made of a stolen dog was posted on chip or tattoo? from a happy customer if anyone wants to read it.
It was not solicited by us as what happened to the dog we tried to find the owner, the readable correct tattoo to which to date no owner has come forth to claim is in the hands of the finder, Free registered, and if an owner comes forth, it will be between them and them..  A HAPPY ENDING I AM PROUD OF.
