Prayer Request, Shadow Bird Update...
Hi All,
Don't know where to begin with all of this again, but going back to Thursday and Shadow, that evening after I went up to get her, the Vet's office refused to give me any information on my bird, and who had her. They were threating me with Harassment and Stalking them, after I was told by a State Trooper where she was and to go get her. After court on Friday I had to go to the County Detective's office and report the Theft of my bird. The County Detective's office called the Vet's office telling this Tech my bird was stolen property and she needed to return my bird. That afternoon I tried to call her because my car was overheating and I needed to make later arrangements to get Shadow back. This Tech called me 5 xs and I told her I had to wait till my sister got in from work so I had a vehicle to use and so Shadows cage would also fit, cause it's a floor standing cage. She didn't like that I had to wait for my sister to get home, and stated "she was taking Shadow back to my son's house, and whatever happened to her was up to Jason". I told her if she didn't return my bird to me, and placing my bird in more danger by taking her to Jason's house, she is also an accompliace to theft, all I wanted is my bird returned to me. This Vet Tech than hung up on me, and I called back because I still didn't have a time to meet her to get my bird back. The owner of the Vet Practice got on the phone and threatened me to press charges against me for trying to get my bird back, saying I'm harassing them and they have me on camera stalking them the night before. When again all I was doing is what I was told to do. About a 1/2 hour later I get a phone call from someone who identify's themself as a State Trooper and name and tells me "there is a right way and wrong way of doing things and if I come up there for this bird I will be charged with Harassment and stalking"! "I tried to explain everything I was going through and told to do, but again "I'm wrong!" So I called the State Police again, and was told by this Cprl., not sure of last name, that there was no State Trooper by that name that he new of, and there is no harm in me going up there and getting stolen property that belongs to me, they can't do anything to me for requesting my stolen property, I should go get my bird, but they are not sending a Trooper out to help me to recover Shadow either. Again I explained the threats over the phone from this State Trooper and Vet's office, and again I was told the same things and to go get my bird. So I took his word and advice and go up there to get my bird, and guess what, I get charged with Harassment and Lord only knows what other charges he is pressing against me. This State Trooper also threatened to have my drivers license suspended. As of today, we still do not have a place to live and I am staying in my car. I will not go back up to my son's house, I want nothing to do with him ever again. (1 exception, need to remove my computer and clothes from his house). They can loose that house and everything and I will never lift a finger to help them again. So I finally got Shadow back and she is staying with my sister, Hannah, Honey and I are staying in my car for the weekends, and part time at my sisters when her hubby is not home. We spent all weekend in the car and at the dog park, but we did get to meet some other doodles, and they might make the doggy romp also. I also go to the library but you only get 30 mins on a puter and not a long enough time to chat with anyone. This is all very stressful, and don't know what else to say or do at this point.....Love Denise, HannahNHoneyNShadow...

Denise, Isn't there a shelter in your area?? After all, you are presently homeless and need help. Hopefully there is a woman's shelter in your area where you can stay until this mess gets straightened out. Glad you got your bird back. But what about you and the doods??

The shelter does sound like a good option, Debbie. Worth checking into for your continued safety.
Sending you best wishes Denise that this mess is soon resolved and you, Hannah, Honey and Shadow will have a safe, peaceful life with no more stress like this.
WOW
We're thinking about you, take care.

Oh, Denise. I am so sorry you are dealing with all of this. You are in my prayers. I am glad that you got Shadow back and that your sister will take Shadow in until you are on your feet again. Betsy

You should check into a shelter in your area as others have mentioned. Where are your Doodles? They aren't in your car too - are they? That wouldn't seem fair to them.

Shelters do not take in dogs, therefore my dogs would be rehomed or stuck in a spca situation. Sorry but not going to happen. Yes my dogs are with me, they get to play at the doggy park, they have their food and water, they are in the car at night and sleep in the back with the seats down, so they have ample room. In fact they have more room in the back of my car than in their large dog crates. My car is a 4x4 so they have room.
Right now it's two against one (son/g/f vs. me), the court system here is not listening at all and allowing this kid to do whatever he wants because it's their home where we were staying, even though I'm paying rent to live there. When my son winds up in jail wearing his favorite color Orange, and his g/f is in a box 6ft. under, than will the court system listen. Who's fault will it be. I look back and it is stupidity that allows the courts to do this. First I have always turned this kid in to the system whenever he was wrong, big mistake because they never gave the proper corrections or the kind of help this kid should of had. Now I'm stuck worrying the rest of my life because he is as abusive as his father is. I seek the help, and get nothing no matter what, or it always comes back onto me as the bad parent. If I wash my hands completely of this, and something happens, its my fault again, where was I as a parent. So now I am damned if I do, and damned if I don't. ....And people wonder why I perfer my dogs over humans.....hmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just feel bad for the Doodles... they shouldn't be subjected to all this drama on a daily basis.

Kim, I totally agree, and I am keeping them away from it all, as much as possible. Why we stayed in my car so they would not have to hear the fighting with my son and his g/f or myself, why I am trying to get a place to live, and staying at my sisters when I can be here, and her hubby having health issues. I am also now dealing with a close friend being sick and in the hospital. I am doing everything I possibly can...I need legal help, someone who will listen and defend Me, and no one is giving it to me.

Denise, I feel so badly about all of this mess. I truly wish I had some advice or assistance to offer but I don't. I do know that some people just don't "turn out" and there is nothing you can do or could have done to change that. My older sister and I both had the same life growing up and great parents. My sister became a druggie, thief, etc. and I didn't. Who can really say why that happened?

Denise, I wouldn't leave my dog either!! Don't any shelters allow dogs?
