7-31-23 oshkosh woman gets dog back

An Oshkosh woman has been reunited with her pet dog after a dispute with the Fond du Lac Humane Society saving the dog from being euthanized.    Jessica Lewis picked up her pet black lab-border collie mix Sadie from the Fond du Lac animal shelter Wednesday evening after providing proof that she was the owner.   The Humane Society says they did not initially return the dog to Lewis because the animal came into the shelter as a stray, and Lewis was not able to provide proof of ownership.   In a statement on it’s Facebook page the Humane Society says Lewis initially provided misleading information and it was following policies and procedures meant to protect the animals and the public.  Lewis said she has had the dog for eight years since it was a puppy and only placed it with another person when she became temporarily homeless, unaware he turned it into the shelter.
