Yes - I was expecting something like that too, because this seemed like the actions of someone who genuinely cared about the dog but was desperate. Nerrrp.

Yeah, I dunno, my friend grew up with one and his family weren't dog experts by any means. It was a nice dog the few times I met it, it lived to be like 12 or 13 and the friend absolutely adored it as did his younger sister.

I hope this experience is enough to stop this woman and her "not as nice as the pictures" prejudice from buying/having any pets in the future. Some people don't deserve pets, and the only good thing this woman has done with this monumental fuckup and its publicity, was giving Pluto a chance to actually find a loving…

"I thought I'd take the dog to Aberdeen but my son phoned and said the photo from the ad was an American picture from 2005."

As someone with asthma, I'd like to be among the first to invite this woman to go fuck herself.

Right on all accounts.

aw man look at this sweetheart

I am no "expert" on Shar Peis, but I had one for 11 years and after she passed I adopted another and have had him for a year and a half now. They're not particularly difficult or anything - in fact, my friends/family with small yappy dogs tend to have more issues regarding behavior and health than I have ever had…

This story was way better when I thought it was a loving family who couldn't care for the animal and left it in a place where they thought he would garner attention and find a home.

So, did she come forward with her story because she thought it would make her ... look like less of a massive cunt?

And this piece of shit didn't call whatever Scotland's version of Animal Control is to report it because?

Right, like, I get that asthma can be a serious condition, but I don't get what relevance it could possibly have to the story? It's not being reported that she was looking for a low-shedding dog (or any other quality that gets some dogs called "hypoallergenic) and got left with another type of dog, just that she was…

When I first saw this story I really really wanted to believe that the dog was from a family who had hit hard times and did the thing they thought was most humane—leave him at a busy train station with all of his things. Ayr station itself is quite small, but enclosed, and it's a main transfer point for people headed…

Once she was scammed she was scammed. It sounds like she didn't want to come to terms with the fact that she had been had, and tried to pull the playground equivalent of "NOPE! I never touched the leash! Still yours dude why are you driving off here's your dog he's going to be stuck here I'm walking away now not my…

This woman and the online seller are fucking lucky I live in the United States and can't reach them, because the rage I feel would bring out my She-Hulk and I would end them both in a HulkSmash for the ages.

Rayner said she panicked as she had to get to the last train to Aberdeen with her daughter, who suffers from asthma.

I know they look cute, but no one who is not an expert on Shar Peis should own a Shar Pei. They are NOT easy dogs and have a lot of health and behavioral issues. I feel terrible for this poor dog, who has clearly been neglected by a lot of people, but I do hope very much that whoever has him know is VERY careful…

THIS is why I go around saying, " I hate people." Now, I don't hate people and I truly believe that most people are mostly good, but DAMN do the assholes dishearten me.

I dislike this woman with every fiber of my being. She doesn't deserve that sweet puppy, and I hope he finds an amazing owner soon because he deserves all the love.

Never trust anyone wearing that much blue makeup.
