There are many other links to this story, just google "Frankfort Humane Society".
In a nutshell, a Shiba Inu was found wandering the streets near Frankfort, KY. AN officer brought her to the animal shelter where they instantly classified her as a coyote and had the officer release her to the wild.
Seriously? How the HELL can you confuse a shiba inu with a coyote? We've had Finnish spitz (very similar breed) and no one ever called them a coyote - some would think they're a fox (or some fox-dog-hybrid (even though that's impossible).
So, if a vlcak gets loose and an animal shelter gets them, I'm sure none would know what a vlcak is, let alone what one looks like would they just classify it as a wolf and instantly kill it or release it into the wild? Would they even check for a microchip?
Seriously, this is extremely frightening!!
