It's true, however now a days with Myspace, people need to wonder what is really out there on them.
I'll give you an example, today on our rescue site someone posted that her sister has a Boston and I guess he is 6 months old and has mange (not the bad kind) but the owner doesn't have the money to treat it so they are getting rid of the puppy, well the sister is involved with the rescue and she asked if we can take her in and treat her because her sister will put the puppy down if no one wants her. SO my DH decided to look to see if the person who works with the rescue is on myspace (he likes to put a face to a name) well come to find out she was, and she's a back yard breader, she has 7 dogs, admitted to her and her husband quiting their jobs to sell stuff on ebay, breed dogs and be a secret shopper. And that's how they purchased their house on 10 acres..
My point to all of this is people do really need to be careful what is out there on them. It's so easy now a days to find almost anything you want to know about someone... Both good and bad... If the situation above, we are rescuing the dog and then of course dropping her from our rescue. You just never know people like you think you do...
