Im thinking that this part of your post should answer your question......... William Rilenge was recently recognized for his part in facilitating over 5000 pet adoptions nationwide since 2009........ Note the PET ADOPTIONS portion. Then you follow up with...........

Well rescuing and placing are two different functions. So this person was given what appears to be the FIRST award for PET ADOPTION. As someone who runs a cat rescue, even I know that. Placing a rescue is more often then not a frustrating experience since everyone always wants puppies or kittens. The 5000 placements may have been older animals. If so I appluad that person!!!
Then you RUIN IT ALL with.....
NOT FAIR!!!
Really now....Could you maybe NOT act like a three year old child. So you DID NOT WIN THE AWARD!!!! Get over it. Youre NOT in this for the "glory". Youre in this to help the animals. YOU HAVE NOT BEEN RIPPED OFF!! You should be ASHAMED of yourself for even making this post. YOU CHEAPEN YOUR OWN EFFORTS!!! Ok so you have rescued over 5000 dogs. Doesnt even put a dent in the 3.7 mil. But youre doing what you can. By making this post you tell the ENTIRE WEB that YOU THINK you DESERVE an award. You didnt get into this for an award. You got into this just like every other person who has to rescue animals. BECAUSE YOU LOVE THEM!!!
THIS IS A FALSE REPORT!!!! THIS POSTER DID NOT WIN AN AWARD!!! THAT IS ALL!!!
I mean you REALLY need to get over yourself. YOU didnt win an award. SO WHAT!!! THAT person did. YET AGAIN SO WHAT!!! Shouldnt you just be happy that SOMEONE is getting recognition for the work that WE ALL DO!!! Get over it and yourself. Maybe you will win next year. And not to put to fine of a point on this, but do they even KNOW WHO THE HELL YOU ARE??? WAS YOUR NAME EVEN IN THE RUNNIING FOR THE AWARD???
Probably not, and they are not psychic. Really acting like a child because YOU didnt win is so.......well to be honest, I cant come up with a word that would describe the revulsion I feel towards YOUR attitude.
