Hi Carey,
you should try looking for "dogs for adoption" forum rather than in here the "lost dog" forum....Here is where people post up post looking for their lost dog or have found a lost dog.
You'll have better chance in the dogs for adoption site. Good luck ya !

Really appreciate what you did for the dog but why are you now trying to sell it ?????? If you take money for a poodlw you found, you are selling it isnt it ? I believe ppl can be a good dog owner even if they cannot afford to pay. Why dont you wait awhile and give the original owner a little more chance to find you. He/She could be frantic.

well, the reason I am selling it cos it can't get along with my dog and secondly, I have to recover the costs for my car repair. I have been to penang and asking all over the place where I have found it but in vain. And lastly, I have seen many and far too many having adopted dog and later throw them in the street. Reason cos it FREE!!Take a look in SPCA and u know what I means. I am looking for a good owner and someone who can really takes care of it, I will be heart broken if I will to find it on the street again. I wonder how many will risks their car for a dog??? As for recovering of costs for my car, I am looking at a mininial sum but most important, the person must be a REAL dog lover not 5 minutes kind. If not, I will continue to take care of it till I sell it or it can somehow get along with my dog.

Hi Ben,
From my experience, not necessary that a dog is bought with a price, the owner'll treat them well...rite? I thought that u r just looking for a good home for the poodle.....my friend's lab has delivered 5 pups n r put to adoptin without a price tag attached n they seem to love them very much...i believe that money is not the issue if u love the dog n want a good home for him....It's a matter of finding a good owner n he does not need to be rich...i believe that not all of us here r rich rite? But still we give our dogs what we can....
maybe u should think about it....to recover the cost of ur car repair...maybe but why 'being not able to get along with ur dog?'....is this a reason to sell n not to give away but charging some adoption fees?The dog's life lies in ur hand......so what ur decision is reflects his whole life...
not meaning to offend u...sorry if i do just think about it

glad to know your car is out and you are well. but sorry to know that the poodle is not getting along well with your maltese.. ... but don't you think selling the poodle isn't a really good idea? not to offend you lah...but i do agree with what nathalie said..

You did a great job to stop and help the poor poodle. Do not end such a good deed with the wrong decision. Yes, if you do not pick up the poodle you may not have an accident but think about it, since you are the driver, you have to bear some responsibility on how the accident happen. You cannot put all the blame on the poodle or the owner.
As for selling the poodle to find a good owner. As Natalie have said, ppl who buys dogs or pay a high price do not necessary make good owners. Some of them just have lots of money o burn. You cannot justify yourself in this manner as you are trying to recover the money for repairing the car.
As I said, you started a good deed ... do not make it end in a way which makes you look like you did not do any deed at all. Sometimes it hurts us a little when we do good but I believe God sees that and He will bless you later. He just want to see if you can make the little sacrifices.

hello there,
I strongly agree with Terry and Nathalie.Just because the new owners don't believe in paying for the dog, doesn't mean he'll dump him.
My cousin took in an abused dog which was free..and the dog is happy and contented now.
I'm thinking of taking in another recue dog which is free...do u think i'll dump him?
I don't really believe in paying for the dog but rather spending the money on the dogs' expenses and giving a better quality in life.
The key to finding a good home is not by selling the dog, but to find a dog lover who has the time and patience. Believe me, I've seen expensive dogs, having less than a life than any stray. They're used as trophies to show off. Doubt putting a price tag on the dog will help the situation.
Maybe u could charge the owner for any medical bills of the poodle? or maybe a bit of the car repair. Don't think it's fair to make money out of the situation.

Did I say anything abt making $$$$$$$$$$$$, mind u! be careful of what u said! I only ask for a mininal sum to cover my losses. My car repair costs me RM 2600 can I get back so much???? You guys are incredible!

BenChan8,
How much can you ask to compensate RM 2600 ? 100 - 200 RM, will that help much ? 1000 -1200 RM, how may ppl can afford ?
Do you have insurance ? Maybe you can claim from your insurance.
I remember many times when I had accidents when I was much younger and also during those times when I could not afford these accidents ... I know how it feels ..... but we will get through it. At that cost, my advise is to claim insurance.

Well,
No one her's trying to offend nor critise u...we 'r all here juz suggesting an idea. at the end of the day it's still u who decide what to do. Be it u want the best of the poodle or the other way round.
Still after selling the dog u'll not able to even cover the cost rite? So for the few hundred bucks, might as well give the poodle a hope of life......ur car repair, that's what insurance r for rite?

Oh, my, well I am pleased to see so many concerned about one little dog. I have to agree that sometimes if people pay at least some price for a dog they will value it more. It also means that they are willing to spend some of their hard earned cash for the dog and maybe that will be the same for when it needs medical attention and other things.
I have to ask, did you try around to the local vets? Did you check to see if the dog had a microchip or how about a tatoo on the ear??? The SPCA should have a scanner to check for a microchip.
I'm sorry about your car and it is a very good thing that you took the dog in and are making this effort to find the owner and meantime care for the dog. I'm sure it's not easy to have a new and strange dog in your house.
Also it's very good that you are not giving out the details of the dog to everyone. Is it possible to try a little longer to contact local vets and check again with all the local dog assistance agencies? Like the SPCA and do you have a MNAWF (Malaysian National Animal Welfare Foundation) in your area? I understand it's a lot of work but you can do it.
Anyway whatever happens it does not take away from the good deed that you have done to take in the dog. Good luck with this.

Hi,
Just visited my sick puppy at the vet and saw an ad stating lost white poodle somewhere at Midlands Carpark. The number is 012-4232837 / 012-4884004. You might wanna call the number and check with the person to see if their description on the poodle matches what you've found.
I hope its the right one. Keep me updated on the outcome ya!!!
