Shelly Froehlich claims that she was almost forced to foot a $20,000 bill after learning that some of the six puppies, who along with their mother were dumped on her by Sylvia Shoen, needed life-saving medical treatments. Shoen, who is battling cancer, did not reveal when she had an employee drop off the dogs that some were inbred and others suffered from parasitic infections. She also failed to mention she was married to Joe Shoen, a billionaire U-Haul heir, and paid no surrender fee at the time of the transfer, forcing Froehlich's dog adoption facility Rotten Rottie Rescue to absorb all costs. Froehlich eventually learned about the owner of the dogs' wealth and sent her a text asking for the money to save the animals, to which Shoen responded: 'Crazy dog adoption lady trying to squeeze the Shoen's for $$$. 'This B**** will never see a copper penny!'
