I’m sorry to listen to about this canine. How tragic. There are a bunch of issues to unpack out of your query/remark. With out reviewing the adoption settlement, it’s troublesome to supply a lot enter, however first, the correct of a rescue to cut back an adoption to a foster is just not frequent. It’s often the opposite method round (foster modified to adoption). Second, rescues that require adopters to return animals who they now not need ought to be obtainable to take the animal again and that shouldn’t be topic to a “rescue proprietor’s” availability. Rescues are sometimes not-for-profit firms and there’s no proprietor. There ought to be a board and employees or volunteers who’re keen and capable of carry out providers.
Complaints about veterinarians could also be made to the Connecticut State Board of Veterinary Drugs. Rescues that consider they suffered damages and are due cash from an adopter/foster “guardian” and/or veterinarian may sue (though it’s questionable whether or not the rescue suffered damages within the state of affairs described). If solely the canine might sue those that let him/her down!
