Back at you.
You keep insisting on something that has no basis in reality and what your brother or anybody else does is irrelevant.
This is a contract issue between you and the rescue service.
You pay a fee you get a dog.
In the absence of an express refund policy, there is no refund.
It's that simple.
If you still don't understand that, you are free to sue the rescue service in small claims court and see how that goes.
