She was shocked that they will only help with a condition that the caller does not interfere with what SPCA will do to the female dog when they bring her back. The lady specified that she will take the female dog back if the vet could help this distressed dog to be taken to SPCA first. It so obvious that SPCA have the thought of putting her to sleep.
I hope you will not be offended with what I am going to write and I believe a lot of people will be on my side. The expertise of the vets there are questionable. Its seem that they are only good in putting a dog to sleep,spaying and giving booster jabs. They need to go for refresher course. They can’t give solutions to help a distress animal other than telling public that their normal practice is to put a distress animal TO SLEEP

I suggest your lady friend to ask opinion from other vets or put a question in this forum under "Dogs & Puppies". Maybe it will be more helpful. There's always a lot of helping hands around, people to answer your questions in the forums
Hmm.. I have no comments regarding SPCA .. I've adopted from there once and that's all I have to say
P/S: I have no clue whatsoever about dogs except I'm terrified of them since I was small
