That is a ridiculous statement.

No, its not. We live in a ridiculous nation. Think lawsuit.
The ASPCA gets an animal they cant adopt due to "issues". They sign it over to another organization. This organization works with it, or releases it to its new owner. Dog reverts or isnt rehabilitated and attacks or accidently turns on someone.
New owner or victim sues owner, and organization that gave the dog PLUS the ASPCA as being ultimately responsible for letting a "bad" animal leave their premises. Even if they signed legal documents, as ridiculous as things are with lawsuits these days, they could be held liable for the dog in the end.
