Because it stated on the shelter's web-site that the facility was only open Monday - Friday 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. Terry Young said he called and left a message that the dog was his, and he'd be by to pick up the dog on Monday.
Target was wearing her pink camo collar - the one she's wearing in the pics taken of her. There, however, was no tag on it. That was ill thought by Mr. Young. All dogs should have I.D. attached to their collar.
The story is that there were two dogs in the same run - the other dog was the one that was scheduled to be put down, but the shelter worker took Target instead. When Terry Young showed up Monday morning, they brought out the dog that was supposed to be put down. Only then did the shelter realize what it had horribly done.
Mr. Young states that he filled out paperwork for a city license and sent it in but hadn't heard anything back.
