    What a blessing you are, for her!

    You are so wonderful to help her and I'm praying for her family, to find her! I rescued a Jack Russell that had been stolen weeks earlier and he was on the side of a road. I lived in Mobile at the time and happened to ck the classifieds, though I never ck'd the "lost pets" section, before! There was an ad and they'd had two other people, give them false hope. It was there baby and they were happily, reunited! BTW, they were even from, MS! Miracles, do happen!

    How great, Sowaler's are!

    Though, I pray she'll be reunited with her family, if they're good people and take care of her! If my baby was lost, I'd be moving Heaven and Earth, to find her!

    Oh Thank You but she is so sweet we just can't part with her now. We took her to the vet and got her shots and she is in great condition just 15 lbs overweight and full of fleas :)

    She loves our 1yr old yellow lab and acts like she was always meant to be with him.

    I just can't believe that someone left her on the beach!!! She is just perfect how could they do that!

    We were only in Seagrove for the week on vacation and the shelters were full so we brought her back to Jacksonville thinking her owners would call. Alaqua has been great to work with---such a very nice facility and people!

    thanks for your response!

    MY name is Annie and I'm 13 years old. I've had JESSIE (her real name) since I was 4 years old. And I would just like to thank you for dognapping my dog all the way to Jacksonville. Maybe on day a do-gooder will do you the same way. My brother left the gate open, and Jessie escaped. We looked EVERYWHERE for her. Dog pounds, all over our neighborhood, but it's almost impossible to find a dog when she's locked in a condo room, and take her back all the way across florida the next day. If you really cared about finding her real owners, you would've called the dog pound, or at least posted this before you went to Jacksonville. Anyways, I just wanted to let you know my opinion of the situation. .

    I understand you are upset, but your post is inappropriate.

    You have to realize that folks who aren't from here don't realize that a lot of our dogs roam the neighborhood, even if that is not the best idea.

    I admit I questioned the action of them taking the dog at first, but immediately realized Eliz was probably doing only what she believed in her heart she needed to do to keep your pooch safe. So whether you agree or not you should be thanking her from the bottom of your heart.

    When a dog gets loose, it is the owner's fault, not the fault of the person who finds the pet and tries to help. Be thankful that you are reunited with your best friend. Learn some manners or Jessie may be your only friend.

    A little harsh. No.1) Dognappers don't, usually, advertise their crime on a public forum and publish their phone numbers. No.2) I believe, had you put signs up, someone from this forum would have seen them and helped reunite you with your dog, before a trip to Jax.. No3.) One of my biggest jobs is keeping my animals healthy and safe, although on occasion, have managed to escape. They always have collars and tags with contact info. Had Jessie had tags you would have been reunited that day. No. 4) Had my dog escaped, I would hope someone would pick her up and put her up in a condo with a.c. and safe from being run over. Then they would look at numbers on tags, called me and I would have gone and picked her up. No.5) Eliz seems like a caring person, she was in touch with Alaqua. That would have been the first place I tried, if not here. I mean, she did try. No.6) You have her numbers. Have you not been in touch with her? I believe, IF you want your dog back, she would work with you. If it was my dog I'd be beating a path to Jax., with a thank-you card!
    Anyway, that's what I think!

    I didn't see this before I posted. I love visiting the Jax area and am overdue for a visit. I may be able to get over there in the next few weeks and would love to have some chocolate company on the way back.

    Otherwise I bet we can find someone in Jax area headed this way, if you say please and thank you, you might earn Jessie a ride.

    An alternate plan would be to send your brother on the bus since he left the gate open, assuming he is old enough.

    annie t is my best friend and she called me this morning an she was very mad and was about to start crying and i think shes right about every thing and just because the jessie was out ont the streets dosent mean she was abandon every dog wonders off every once in a while, and if annie and her dad could go to get her they would, but her dad is single father and dont have the money to stop every thing there doing and go on a 15 hour drive and and pay you people 300 dollars for there dog back, and thats not including gas money and food money and it would be helpful if you could at less meet them half way scene you did pick her up and drove her a cross florida and i know for a fact that jesse had her collar on and they are were takeing care of the flea problem, its summer and that happens to dogs, and if u really cared about giveing jessie back to them it would be very helpful of u to drop the 300 dollars and meet them half way cuz not every one is rich and has 500 dollars just laying around.

    Anyway, that's what I think!
    this is the last comment i'm answering, and it pretty much explains it all and sums the situationn up.1) dognappers isnt the word foor it, but dont be so literal.
    2)I did put signs up. so before judging,look around.3) and jessie DID have a collar, just no i.dtags (i admit, our fault). and dont say "well, maybe its not jessie" because i'm sure it IS her. We lost her the week this was posted, and we live close to eastern lake,very close.4)im okay with the fact they "saved her from being ran over" (which i highly dought would happen bacuase she is 15 lbs. overweight, shes hard to miss), but taking her to jax was overdoing it. 5) i covered that in answer 4, about how she should've taken her to the shelter or pound. 6) yes. i have.
    So people, stay out of this please. unless you personally know me or eliz, then butt out.

    1st rule of life!!!!!

    You DON'T bite the hand, that feeds you! You seem to really have anger issues and an inability to understand the real situation, here!People are and have been trying to help you, from the beginning! It seems that your family needs a mediator, to get your pet back, since you don't seem to be able to handle this! Just curious, where are your parents, in all of this? Honestly, I'm thinking that the baby needs to stay, where it is! If your parent(s) are not trying to reunite with your pet, that speaks volumes!

    Isn't there a sowaler, in that area?

    There are sooo many sowaler's, on this board! Isn't there someone that can help, with the needed transportation?Though, I'm concerned about the parent's lack of involvement, at least from this thread! But, I understand that finances are tough, for most people!

    ok, listen. if you were to actually look at other posts you would know this, so onemore time this is the last time i'm saying this. i would be fine with it if they were to find her, and drop her off at a shelter/pound before they left, since we checked the shelters/pounds everyday.[thats kinda the first thing everybody with a brain does when they loose a dog is to call the shelters.] but then taking her all the way across the state and expecting us to come and get her AND pay 400$ for shots that they gave her? did you know thats kinda illegial? and its not like they really expected to find the owners because they gave her shots!nobody just finds a dog while on vacation, takes her a trillion miles away, then gives her shots and really trys to find the owners. they were planning on keeping her. i can assure you, if it wasnt a dog as sweet as jessie [if it was an anorexic homeless dog], then they wouldnt touch her. but if you saw jessie, oyu know its obvious she has a home. and YES my parent(s) are involved!! do you think i would care this much if my parents didnt!? and most likely the onlly reason people dont want me to [as some say] "posting innapropriate comments" [when really i'm stating my opinion] is bcuase this is a tourist website! oh, how dare i scare away them!!! pshhh.

    Most folks will not drop a dog at a pound for fear the dog will be put to sleep if no one claims it. We don't know the whole story but it sounds like medical care may have been needed for Jessie. In any case this needs to be worked out calmly.

    This is not simply a "tourist website". We keep it real and will tell it like it is. Being young is no excuse for being rude. Again, I understand you are upset, and I sympathize with you, but it is time to calm down and find a solution instead of ranting.

    I have suggested a couple of options in post #11, but you have not responded at all. It seems that if you were in favor of finding a solution instead of showing public anger, you would have responded to those who want to help. If you continue in an unproductive way then people will stop wanting to help you.

    At this point I think it is important for your parents to know you are posting on this site, and that we are trying to help. They may have other ideas, or wish to handle the whole matter offline.

    Sorry if this sounds like a lecture but it's time to fix it instead of letting it stay broken.

    I'm pretty quiet on this board, use it for information that affects our property in Walton since we live in GA. But this thread really tugs at me, mainly because I've rescued both of my dogs, one from a shelter and one from a highway.
    I really think you're missing the point, no one stole your dog to keep it, if they did I highly doubt they'd have started this post. Pretty much only Taliban commits crimes then uses public communication sources to brag about what they did.
    And calm down, you really are painting yourself in a horrible light when, in my opinion, you are surrounded by genuine people that will help you if they can, but if you come across acting like a "female dog" you will only push them away from wanting to help. Just my $0.02.
    And I do hope you get your dog back.

    First of all, how about some empathy for both parties involved. Each did what they thought was best under the circumstances. It's a difficult situation, but not one without precedent. Considering the timeline and actions taken by each party, ownership of Jessie was not transfered. Although Eliz in good faith and caring spirit, transported Jessie to Jacksonville and incurred a substantial vet bill in doing so. It does not make Jessie her dog. Simple as that. She cannot legally keep the dog or require payment of vet services in exchange for the dog. Unless the dog needed some type of emergency treatment and the owner could not be contacted, there is a possibility the actual owner could be held responsible for the vet bills. Outside the legal question, of course there is the moral or the "right thing to do". That is up to individuals. Let's not pretend we always make the right decisions about things and condemn others for not doing what we would do. Eliz did take drastic measures to insure the health and safety of Jessie and that should be commended, however, Annie should get her dog back as soon as possible. Unfortunately, depending on the actions of each party, this could become a criminal or a civil matter. As far as Annie's rude and emotional "rantings", I've seen way worse on this site over far less.

    Good post - but a rant in itself is not the problem until it continues and gets in the way of a real dialog and a solution. If the only purpose is to rant or retaliate then no help can be offered or received.

    I truly hope you would not withhold a child's pet requesting payment of shots; something you did rather quickly on your volition when a simple flea bath would have sufficed for a while longer. I would think that an older pure breed dog, would in all likelihood, be somewhat up to date on shots and not pose any significant risk to your lab while you waited a bit longer; if you truly hoped the rightful owners found this site to claim him. Also, did you leave your telephone # with Alaqua?

    Consider that this is a child who is only being supervised by one parent; a parent who is probably working multiple jobs to keep a roof over his children's heads, and may be in danger of losing his job(s) due to the oil spill and there is increased tension in the household.

    Hopefully, since Kurt so graciously offered to go to Jax, or if someone else is traveling that direction and back, that the dog will be reunited soon with his rightful family. I have seen many Sowalers come to the rescue of multiple situations that were from out of town.

    This is not simply a "tourist website". We keep it real and will tell it like it is. Being young is no excuse for being rude. Again, I understand you are upset, and I sympathize with you, but it is time to calm down and find a solution instead of ranting.

    I have suggested a couple of options in post #11, but you have not responded at all. It seems that if you were in favor of finding a solution instead of showing public anger, you would have responded to those who want to help. If you continue in an unproductive way then people will stop wanting to help you.

    At this point I think it is important for your parents to know you are posting on this site, and that we are trying to help. They may have other ideas, or wish to handle the whole matter offline.

    Sorry if this sounds like a lecture but it's time to fix it instead of letting it stay broken.
    for your info, this isnt your buissness in the first place, but we did find a solution. im just letting people know that maybe eliz isnt the biggest hero afterall.
    and before critisizing and being rude, you should try to find out about the other side of the story and how someone elses life is first!
    pretty sad that a 13 year old learned this before you did.

Also, did you leave your telephone # with Alaqua?

    Consider that this is a child who is only being supervised by one parent; a parent who is probably working multiple jobs to keep a roof over his children's heads, and may be in danger of losing his job(s) due to the oil spill and there is increased tension in the household.

    Hopefully, since Kurt so graciously offered to go to Jax, or if someone else is traveling that direction and back, that the dog will be reunited soon with his rightful family. I have seen many Sowalers come to the rescue of multiple situations that were from out of town.
    thank you! you seem to be the only one who understands the actual situation!

    I am happy you were able to work something out, to get Jessie back, but you have got to know being covered in biting bugs is torturous. Imagine being in your bed at night, trying to sleep and you're being eaten alive. I'm sure it makes for a hard nights sleep. Since, she's had her shots, she will have a tag, that will be associated with another number. Call the vet and change contact info., to your own.
    And, oh yeah, you can make your own tag at walmart. There is a machine at the front of the store.

    When you're posting on my forum, it is my business. I was honestly trying to help and even offered to bring your pet home for you. And still you insult.

    Maybe one day when you grow up you will return here and thank some folks. Then again, if you haven't learned manners by now . . .

    I am glad you worked it out.

    I agree with Ellie - if you can't employ effective flea control then you shouldn't own a pet.

    Wow, Annie! Have some respect. Kurt offered to go to Jax to pick up your dog, and had it not been for this site, owned by Kurt, YOU would not have found your dog. Regardless of what really happened, you owe Kurt an apology.

    Lessons learned: act like a little lady and learn some manners, get your dog microchipped, and pay attention to your studies, especially your spelling.

    I, certainly, don't care, but, I do know who will! Your prospective employers. It's hard to even follow what you are talking about, with misspelled words, horrible grammar, no capitalization and no punctuation. Good luck to you.
    BTW, you certainly are charming, maybe, that will get you through life!

    Sincerely,
    An elderly person
