[Dailydrool] My apologies for introducing myself

[Carmen Kraus]

Apparently I must have misrepresented me and my rescue when I introduced 
myself this week.  I did not intend for it to seem if I am asking for 
donations to help with the care of my rescue.  I run it out of my own 
pocket and sell items to help fund vet bills when I need a little 
extra.  I have been accused of attempting to fleece the Drool List 
because I do not list my mailing address on my rescue's website.  I am 
not a non-profit because I haven't been able to raise the funds to pay 
for the application fee, everything I get goes to these animals.  
According to my lawyer and accountant I have to pay taxes on every 
donation I write a receipt for so I do not ask for donations and never 
have other than the little blurb on the website about the vet bills.
I do not give out my street address either, we don't even have a mail 
box.  I have had my gates broken and my dogs shot at this year and am 
protective of who I let near my dogs because of it.

I do want to thank all of those who have emailed me regarding Kelvin.  
But I think I'll pull myself off the list now.  I'm on the Drool Boards 
if you want to know more about my herd.
