This was similar to my very first rescue. I had to leave work and rush over to this woman's house because she threatened to throw the dog out on to the street if no one came to get her right away. She was appalled at the suggestion that she bring her dog to the shelter and asked "What kind of service is this?" Once I safely had the dog, I explained that in her case, I was providing a service to the dog; to safely get it away from someone so ignorant as herself!
