Halifax, Nova Scotia -- An Internet campaign has been started to help a 75-year-old Canadian man burned out of his home to get his dog back from a foster home.
Earl Shadbolt lost his house in Eastern Passage, Nova Scotia, to a fire in April, and the apartment he took while repairs were made wouldn't allow him to keep his terrier-mix dog Willie, The (Halifax) Chronicle-Herald reported Friday.
Shadbolt made arrangements with fellow church member Laura Naugler to board the dog until he could move back in, but things turned nasty in August when he moved back home and asked for his dog back, the newspaper reported.
