00:00Hi, we are calling from a rescue, we're Cats of San Bernardino, and we found your dog.
00:06Oh, you guys did? Yes.
00:08Did someone tie you with a pair of pants?
00:10Because I had...
00:12Because where I moved,
00:14I think I left a pair.
00:16Um, there were not accepting dogs
00:18because I moved out of either side's lab.
00:20Mm-hmm.
00:22And I gave it to somebody else.
00:24Okay.
00:26And they told me they wouldn't take responsibilities.
00:28Well, we found him tied with a sweatshirt
00:30around, or her, tied with a sweatshirt
00:32around her neck at Starbucks.
00:34Oh, wow, no. I don't think so.
00:36I almost seemed shocked that we found his information
00:38to be able to contact him.
00:40Thank you so much. Thank you.
00:42Hey, do you want some cup of coffee?
00:44Is there a name tag on it? I don't think so.
00:46The microchip had never been registered by the owner,
00:48but the people who sold it were the
00:50city shelter here, so we called
00:52the city shelter and got the owner's
00:54contact information.
00:56Okay, um, are you wanting her back?
00:58We were on the phone, and I was, like, sweating
01:00because I was so mad. The way he was so dismissive.
01:02Um, no, thank you
01:04because I cannot have dogs in my house.
01:06But we don't want them to retaliate
01:08and take that opportunity for us
01:10to give her a better future.
01:12You always have to be very nice because
01:14if they don't want their dog back, you do want them to say,
01:16you know, you can take her.
01:18Okay, um, would you be willing to
01:20surrender her to us?
01:22Yes, please.
01:24We were scared that he might want her back,
01:26and then she might end up in a similar situation again.
01:28So, what are we going to do now?
01:30Let's go scan him, though, and then see if there's a foster?
01:32You are so, let me see his face.
01:34So pretty.
01:36Let me see, Mama.
01:38Wow, you're so pretty.
01:40Good pretty girl.
01:42Let's go get you scanned, okay? Let's go.
01:44Come on, Mama.
01:46She was definitely a little bit scared and apprehensive,
01:48but she did want love.
01:50We can get a pop top. Come on.
01:53Come on.
01:55Wait up for me, honey.
01:57I mean, we don't usually rescue dogs,
01:59but we actually had gone to the vet
02:01with some of our kitties, and while we were
02:03waiting, we decided, okay, let's go get some Starbucks.
02:05And we were on our way to New York.
02:07We were on our way to New York as well.
02:09That same night. And that's when we were, like, scrambling.
02:11Like, we need a foster to come through
02:13and help us tonight.
02:15It worked.
02:17And luckily, it worked out. One of our adopters
02:19stepped up and took her for the
02:21five days that we were gone.
02:23Hey guys, we're here at the vet, and we have Betty Davis
02:25on Betty. She's here. She's going to get
02:27spayed, and she's back from foster
02:29who she was with for a few days, and now
02:31she's back in our care. She is available
02:33for adoption. We do know we have a lot of
02:35adoption applications, so we're going to be going through those this
02:37week, but if you are interested in adopting her,
02:39please fill out an adoption application.
02:41She's such a good dog.
02:43Anyone that gets to keep her
02:45is going to be so lucky.
02:47Wow.
02:49That's a big bed, huh?
02:51Whoa.
02:53You can fit three of you.
03:03It's raining, crazy girl.
03:05Where do you want to go outside?
03:07You want to go outside?
03:09Look.
03:11You have all this room.
03:13Look at our yard.
03:15You got the whole yard, girl.
03:17Why do you want to go outside in the rain?
