Impoundment

My ex was watching our puppy when I was told she ran away. I then come to find out the owner of where my ex lives took the puppy and dumped her across town. He told me that he had called animal control. They went down there, and nothing was found on the 18th of the month. I was in the area, so I went in and asked to look and there she was! Unfortunately, the amount to get her out was 277.00 and I don't have that kind of money. Animal control wouldn't work with me. This was on the 20th of the same month. Now I found her at a rescue center with the price of 459. I can't get her out, I want my puppy back please help me.

What kind of papers do I need to file to get my dogs back from animal control?

My neighbor’s dog got out when they weren’t home on 4th of July. She was found it seems in someone’s yard just up the street. They posted the dog through the Neighborhood app. My neighbor got home the next day, found the posting, but the dog had already been taken to the pound. My neighbor's son went to get the dog, they are saying the dog needs to be spayed as she was roaming at large. The dog was clearly not aggressive as the neighbor had her on a leash and called her puppers! Is this legal? They’ve kept the dog over the weekend, and I imagine intend to spay her Monday as they said the owners can come get her Tuesday. Is this legal? They don’t want to spay her.

Can animal control make you pay a fee to have your ESA registered dog returned to you?

I was arrested for a traffic violation that was not my fault. My service dog was taken to the Animal Control. They are requiring that she be spayed before release and charging me over $400. She went in Friday night and I was released Monday morning, but they were closed Monday and Tuesday. She has saved my life more than once. I do not have that much money and it adds up every day. What can I do? I do not want her sterilized and I need her with me as soon as possible. What can I do?
