"When she couldn't find a new home, she decided to bring him to us," she said. "She was very remorseful and apologized further. And we felt what she did, it was sufficiently humiliating to be caught in such a public lie.

"Hopefully it provides education to others about being truthful," Brookhouser added. "We hope people now know they can always bring pets to us, no questions asked. We will take in any animal in need no matter how serious, sad, or silly the reason for bringing them to us may be."

Brookhouser said although the woman confessed to lying about the dog's abandonment. So, no charges will be filed against her and she says that Pierre the chihuahua was adopted. By a California family on Aug. 7.
