10:24 AM PT: just realized i should put the auction information at the top since there are less than two days left.
you might remember my original diary "ever had pup lost or stolen?" about a little sheltie who escaped the yard where she was visiting over easter. she was picked up in columbus, ohio, taken to the local shelter then turned over to a local "rescue" (central ohio sheltie rescue".
when the owner, who was at the sheltie nationals, found out, she immediately called and was given the phone number for penny sanderbeck's "rescue" - she called in less than 24 hrs of sanderbeck taking Piper thinking how wonderful her little girl was safe and that she would be picking her up the same day to bring her home.
for some inexplicable reason, despite proof of ownership being provided (INCLUDING the confirmation by the implanted microchip that is listed both on the shelter intake form AND the release form to central ohio sheltie rescue, penny sanderbeck has and is refusing to return this champion show dog.
NO one can understand why! even the national shetland sheepdog association has tried to get sanderbeck to return this dog - but she refuses.
so - it has now moved into the courts. the owner, veronica covatch, loves her dog and wants her home. sanderbeck won't budge. NONE of this makes sense - not one single reason has been given for keeping this dog other than people on the internet said mean things about sanderbeck so she won't return the dog.
the little girl in the middle is piper - she NEEDS your help!!!
