Alaqua causing the problems? nawww... could it be that it isnt a good "PR machine" or "profitable"? Just something that the dogs and their companions desperately need? Sorry if I sound cynical .... I have seen AAR turn away many great dogs saying they dont have room only to be on the news the next day asking for money for the 35 dogs they "rescued" from "horrible" conditions. Sorry but my $$ goes to the Walton Co. Animal Shelter....they dont get to pick and choose which animals they take in.
