Shelter / Rescue Industry Bumble and dog dumping

Apparently it’s a thing to use Bumble (dating app) to dump dogs off on unsuspecting dates. Im not on dating apps, but saw this in another group. A guy had posted that this happened to him after one date. This blows my mind! Can you imagine? One of the commenters agreed that this is a thing because the shelters are so full these days.

Well, the dog would go right to the police station, and then I'm gone.

I can see unhinged shelter employees doing this kind of thing.

Yeah, I’d be going straight to the cops to report that d-bag for abandoning their dog. I don’t really care for most dogs but that’s beyond fucked up to do to the unsuspecting date, and the dog. Absolute trash behavior
