I fostered a dog for Pickle Pants rescue. He had terrible skin issues and infections, I asked Karen Osburn at Pickle Pants rescue to take the dog to the vet or I would and if she could pay for it. Karen Osburn refused to take dog to vet and gave me a bottle of old antibiotics with the name scribbled out.
Also Karen Osburn does a LOT of fundraising, BUT is NOT a 501C3 dog rescue. She gave me a FAKE EIN TAX 501C3 number. Karen Osburn also refused to get the dog tested for allergies, or skin scraped for mites, mange etc. Karen Osburn refused to pay for testing when I insisted dog get checked.
Karen Osburn is too cheap to treat animals properly and insisted I rub coconut oil on dog..I called my vet and my vet suggested I stop feeding dog chicken which is a common allergy. Fast Forward..I paid for the dogs vetting out of MY pocket, after I spent $800 in testing dog and found out he had BEEF ALLERGIES, Karen OSBURN demanded the dog back after I spent all MY OWN MONEY treating the dog Karen Osburn REFUSED To REIMBURSE ME and SOLD THE DOG for $600 claiming SHE spent the money treating the dog.
Pickle Pants Rescue is NOT a NON PROFIT. PICKLE PANTS RESCUE SCAMS MONEY FROM FOSTERS and SELLS DOGS PICKLE PANTS RESCUE DOES NOT TREAT ANIMALS MEDICALLY, REFUSES TO TAKE DOGS TO VET. STAY AWAY FROM KAREN OSBURN she spends the MONEY she raises in her fake fundraisers on her nails and hair. Pickle Pants rescue is NOT A NON PROFIT AND GIVES PEOPLE A FAKE EIN NUMEBR.

Karen Osburn scams money intended for dogs Pickle Pants Rescue Scammers

I was also a foster for Pickle Pants. When I called Karen Osburn the scammer to get antibiotics for dog I was fostering, she dropped off pills in a dog poop bag. I asked Karen Osburn if we could take dog to vet and get a proper prescription she told me if I could not handle it she would take the dog back.
I was afraid the dog would not get treated and took the dog to the vet myself and paid out of pocket. I paid $300 dollars for the dogs treatment, check up and medications. Six weeks later I called Karen Osburn and told her the dog was better, she never called to check on the dog.
Karen Osburn lied to me and said she would take the dog to vet. She came and picked up the dog and never returned with the dog. I saw on her site she had the dog listed for "adoption" for $400 dollars.
I called her to ask her if I could adopt the dog since I paid for all his treatment . She never returned my calls and sold the dog to a new owner for $400 and Karen Osburn pocketed all the money and never reimbursed me a dime.
So in my opinion Pickle Pants rescue scams dog fosters for money. Also she said she was a non profit and Pickle Pants Rescue is NOT.
