Help Jacqueline (Jackie)&David (Dave) get their toy poodle back from The SPCA
Awhile ago when camping our toy poodle ran off when a family members dogs were fighting. As she left her break away collar with ID fell off. We had previously bred champion show dogs, who also did the sport they were bred to do. Most of all they are our kids. After many failed attempts at only 26yrs old Jackie was forced to have a full hysterectomy. They also took her appendix, gallbladder, teeth from sepsis and large chunks from other organs the disease was growing on. There is no cure for her, in so we didn't bother with registering our baby girl who ran away, not tattoo nor microchip. She was always glued to Jackie and never left her side. As to why we are confused why she never came back. Since then we've seen hundreds of poodles non were her. We finally went to see the one at the SPCA as the more I described her the more the lady on the phone got excited. Said to bring our liscence (drivers) -and pictures of her. She saw us and jumped up trying to squeeze through the bars to get at us. We knew instantly it was her. They mentioned other couples coming in and saying she didn't even move from her bed to see the other ppl. They had her groomed horribly, so yes in some pics to an untrained eye she may look different. They knew nothing about colour and pigment in any breed of dog. They said she was old and turning grey, but we said no she's got white on her muzzle and it's because she is turning blue, big difference or at least to us. We grew up with dogs. Dave grew up showing and breeding, Jackie grew up breeding, showing, tracking, police dog work (shuhtzhund), obedience, agility, hunting, training, grooming, even boarding other dogs, I've seen many many dogs in my life I know what my own dog looks like. They told me I needed to bring in more paperwork, and if no other claims in 5 dats she is ours again. (Did hear they were getting hundreds of calls from people wanting to adopt her)
So despite still healing from my surgery a few days prior I came in, brought as much info as I could, vaccinations, parents papers, her deworming schedule, any pthing I could think of and more pics. Reminding them that in show we had to hide her white muzzle. Even had pics with her white on there.
They basically sat us down, didn't even look at all the stuff we brought and were trying to brainwash us that it isn't our dog. They had no empathy at all. Of course my pain was horrific but I wanted my baby back. I started to cry and one lady opened a side door (so the other people adopting wouldn't see) -and asked us very rudely to leave, or they will get the police. I BEGGED THEM SEVERAL TIMES IF I COULD AT LEAST SAY GOOD BYE. THEY SAID' "no" over n over.... lost my dog a second time. Hurts more than words can describe, I'm also an animal behaviouralist and vet assistant, I know dogs and other animals very well. Her.. I knew since I helped her mommy push her out in the bassinet by my bedside. And whine or whimper I'd be up checking on them.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many people have taken the time to connect with our story. This momentum belongs entirely to you and the kindness you have shown toward helping us bring our girl home.

"Please feel free to contact us directly with any questions or concerns you might have. " - I called twice, and then left a message for the manager, with a request to call me back. Sadly enough the SPCA did not bother with a return call. I have known Jackie for many years, even worked with her and I know she would never lie about something like this, in fact I have never noticed her lying at all. And as a parent I can say I will believe that a parent will always recognise their kids, no matter if two or four legged.
I've known Jackie and Dave for many years in the show world and can assure you she not only knows her dogs but she would never scam the SPCA to get a dog. The fact you are accusing her of this in your comments tells me you know nothing about her or her history with dogs.
I also rescue unwanted farm animals, fish www.facebook.com/prairieoceanfishrescue and I'm coming up with an new idea for rescuing dogs.
Please I'm begging just let me have my baby girl back. I'm an animal behaviouralist, vet asst, groomer, ex show handler and so on. I used to breed dogs but no longer as I'm ill in daily pain. It takes so much to properly raise dogs. It's not throwing them in cold metal and stone cages, with food water a bed and they just go to the bathroom in that tiny space. I know my babies. I remember waking up at 2am to puppy screams, I looked over in the bassinet by my bedside (where I whelp all my pups but only 6 litters with two breeds) A large pup was already born in the corner huge, and gone. These things happen. But my Versace "Dior" aka my baby who ran away, was still attatched to her mom by her cord, I woke my hubby up as Versace kept spinning in circles trying to get her sac out. So we worked together and then tidied up, helped my girl latch on (aka suck on her Mom's nipple for milk as they need it to live). We went to wash up, came back to bed An that quickly her brother was born and we got him to latch on quickly. I kept my eye on them, 24/7 until her brother went to his loving new home. We even did a home check, did contracts to ensure he'd be cared for and neautered. His new owners cried they were so happy to have him. When we left we called him to say good by, he came around the corner, looked at us and went back. Then we knew he was with his family. I'm telling this because I have an amazing memory. Even remember being in my crib. I have 5 other dogs, on a 5acre place with a parrot and farm animals. I would have no reason to go to the SPCA and get a random dog. All our boys are neutered. And even if they weren't I'm a good trainer! Just please please let me have her back. My love for her is priceless but I'd pay tons just to see her again let alone have her. It hurts so much that the SPCA is name calling, being mean, yelling at me, stalking me on the net.... that's really mean. It's hard enough.
SPCA Return her dog.
Give their fur baby back!
Get that poor lady her dog back, I appreciate your concern but if nobody else claims that puppy and has better documentation, there's no reason to be so short-minded and overly bureaucratic for god sakes!!!

The blue color is born black and fads to grey/blue. As a puppy this female would have appeared with very little white hairs and would have gotten lighter with each grooming. I am a pure bred king time breeder and understand color genetics. Please return Jackie her dog.
