Pissed off and worried. My brother's ex-friend went running off out of state this week on a whim, and asked my mom and I if we could babysit his two dogs, one of them new, and clean out the new (used) car he got. [side note: Even though he and my brother haven't been friends in nearly 2 years, he's always still kept it touch occasionally, mostly because he lived with us and my mom took care of him for a short period some years ago -- long story.] Anyway this week he got a new dog, a special needs dog to be exact. We had no idea what we were taking on when we agreed to do this, since the idiot said she was friendly and just needed her daily seizure medicine. Turns out not only does this dog have seizures, but she's scared to death of people and has anxiety issues. Getting her to come out to eat, go for a walk, and clean up her mess she made in her kennel was near impossible yesterday. Growled at us a few times but she was mostly just shaking, so we just left her food mixed with her medicine she needed, and water, laid down newspaper since we couldn't get her to go out, and left her kennel open so she could stretch her legs. I also had no idea how horrible of a place he lived in until I went yesterday, where it's nothing but a trailer with NO heat and all he has are these tiny kennels for these two dogs. I was appalled, and still am. This morning my mom did the duties and everything was fine, aside from a bit of mess. Tonight I just went down there to do night duties and she was gone, ripped through the tin and insulation of the trailer wall. I feel horrible, like it's my fault even though it isn't. :sad::crying: It's so cold, I hope hope hope she's going to be okay, that she found a warm barn or shed nearby that she escaped to. I'm really worried about her seizures, even though I was told she was already weaning off from medication since they weren't as bad. (but who knows, that might be a lie or a very vague detail as to what's really going on) I'm so angry at this idiot, I will never do anything for him ever again. It's a wonder I don't call the SPCA for the other dog he has there (who's a sweet little beagle that loves people). :veryangry: I'm still thinking about it. Screw him and his money, I'm not cleaning his stupid vehicle. I'll continue to check on his dog and look for the other the rest of this week. Already had a post on Facebook made for her, so I hope she is found. If she is, I'm going to try my best to not have that dog given back to him.
