HOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

*****************************************************************************************************

1. ADOPT and save a LIFE!   6 million killed each year. "Don't breed or buy when homeless pets die!"

2.  SPAY/NEUTER your dog and/or cat.

3.  VOLUNTEER at a SHELTER.

4.  DONATE money and/or supplies to a SHELTER or RESCUE

5.  SPONSOR an animal at a shelter, rescue or sanctuary.

6.  FOSTER a dog or cat at a SHELTER or at a RESCUE.

7.  SUPPORT and promote animal protection LEGISLATION. According to a 2008 report released by
       ALDF,
Kentucky ranks dead last in the nation in its laws protecting animals.

8.  EDUCATE your family and friends about humane treatment of animals.

9.  JOIN an animal related ORGANIZATION.

10.  Offer to DRIVE a leg of a TRANSPORT.

11. Act RESPONSIBLY!  Adopting a dog, cat, or any animal is a LIFELONG commitment.

12.  RECOMMEND this website to a friend, post to a group, and/or cross-post!  http://www.kycentral.org/
        One seemingly simple act may save a life!

Animal advocacy is, in a certain sense, standing up to tell true life stories that are not being heard; true life stories that most people are ignoring. The first step in animal advocacy is to help people see things differently. Animals are somebody, not something. ~Tom Regan

POSTED 2/26   KENTUCKY IS RATED THE #1 STATE TO BE AN ANIMAL ABUSER

http://www.care2.com/causes/animal-welfare/blog/2009-five-best-and-worst-states-for-animal-abuse/

Our friends in Leitchfield, KY need our help.

For those of you unfamiliar with this shelter, in rural Leitchfield, KY. The Grayson County Humane Society/SPCA works non-stop to find safe rescues or loving homes for the adoptable animals that, for whatever unfortunate reason, end up at the animal shelter in Leitchfield, Kentucky. They're comprised COMPLETELY of volunteers who donate our time, money, and resources.

As the shelter has an intake of almost 1,000 dogs and cats per year - and yes, some do arrive taped up in boxes- they're almost always near maximum capacity. Because of such conditions, they're constantly faced with an urgent need to move these wonderful pets to safety, in order to avoid the need for euthanasia simply due to lack of space.

Their recent fund raising efforts included the town of Leitchfield 'matching' funds.
Great news right? HOLD that thought..

A tragedy occurred the other night and our friends arrived at their shelter to find the following scene:

A person or persons broke into the shelter last night and stole money and checks. Worse, they brought a very cat-aggressive dog into the office, beat her severely, and then released two beautiful cats from their cages, who died a horrible death from the poor dog, who was in agony

This reason for this 'note' is twofold.. it is my sincere wishes that you all read this information and post the hell out of it so that the perpetrators are brought to justice. Additionally, if we could throw a couple of bucks to them to help replace the missing funds and food, and bring in the 'matching' funds from the county, that would be fantastic.
Monetary donations can be made at the following sites:
http://apps.facebook.com/causes/356568#
http://www.graysonhumane.org/

While nothing can erase the trauma to the poor animals, nor erase the image embedded in peoples minds as to the scene they arrived to Thursday morning, we can perhaps band together to try to piece things back together. Give back to the people that have been so tragically hurt..

ANY AND ALL INFORMATION REGARDING SUSPECTS TO THIS HORRIFIC CRIME, SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO THE LEITCHFIELD, KY POLICE DEPARTMENT:

Non-Emergency
(270) 259-3850

Thank you in advance for spreading the word and helping these guys out. It is my belief that SOMEONE within the community KNOWS who did this and will do the right thing.

Darrell- Male R.I.P.

Darrell was a very handsome boy who was trapped and brought to the shelter so he could have a new beginning in life.

On the night of February 24th, 2010 a person or persons broke into the Grayson Humane Society shelter. After stealing the lock box full of money, the "people" decided to release the dogs from their kennel, took a very cat aggressive dog, locked her in the room with Athena and Darrell and let her kill them both. They then turned their attention to beating the dog close to death.

Darrell lost his beautiful life because of this attack. Our hearts ache for him and Athena who did not deserve this.
Athena- Female R.I.P.

Athena was rightly named after the Greek Godess of Beauty. On the night of February 24th, 2010 a person or persons broke into the Grayson Humane Society shelter. After stealing the lock box full of money, the "people" decided to release the dogs from their kennel, took a very cat aggressive dog, locked her in the room with Athena and Darrell and let her kill them both. They then turned their attention to beating the dog close to death.

Athena lost her beautiful life because of this attack. Our hearts ache for her and Darrell who did not deserve this.

Update 2/28

THANK YOU

The outpouring of support for the volunteers and the animals at Grayson has been overwhelming and we thank you for that.

The money that was stolen has been replaced and more.

The lives of the two precious cats can never be replaced and we mourn for them. Our beautiful, loving Athena, who would have left this weekend for rescue and our handsome boy, Darrell, who was becoming more trusting and loving every day. We will never forget you and we are grateful that so many mourn along with us and understand that your lives had value.

The dog involved is going to be fine. This is a wonderful dog and it should not be blamed in any way for what happened...this poor dog was used as a tool for this sick, senseless act of violence.

It helps to know that people, from throughout the world, are thinking of us, praying for us and standing with us. Sometimes we feel like we stand alone.

We value each and every animal that comes through our doors, the sick and injured included. We love them and care for them, to the best of our ability. It gets overwhelming and when something like this happens we lose hope.

Thank you for giving us our hope back.

Thank you for reaffirming to us that there are people who care and support us in what we do. Thank you for helping to ease our pain and our burden a bit.

The next time the workload and the bills become overwhelming, the next time someone dumps kittens in our parking lot or ties an injured dog to our gate overnight...we will think of all of you. You will give us strength. Strangers who cared enough about a little animal shelter in Kentucky to stand by us when we needed you the most. You are strangers no more...you are friends.

Lafayette, IN: Sadie Urgently Needs Rescue

*******************************************************************************************
POSTED 3/10

Contact Monica at toomanykitties7@yahoo.com and Karla at SavingHoosierDogs@gmail.com!

Sadie's owner was hospitalized and she was abandoned in a house for a WEEK! The owner sadly passed away leaving behind young children and Sadie. Relatives took in the children, but Sadie was left homeless, of course. Sadie is a little wary of new people after such a traumatic experience. Once she sniffs you, she's fine. She's good with cats and submissive dogs. She is such a sweet, loving girl and walks perfectly on a leash. She's also housebroken.The ACO who received the call developed a soft spot for Sadie so she took her home as her chances at the shelter were zero-to-none. However she works two jobs with very long hours and Sadie is in a crate basically all day long which isn't an ideal situation. She needs a rescue group or adopter urgently! She's already UTD on shots, spayed, and HW neg. She's just over 1 year old.

POSTED 3/9

Jessy came from another KY county. She was seized in a cruelty case.She is HW positive. She lived 9 years in a cage. 9 long years in a cage being bred. She spent the weekend in isolation at the vet's office because of an upper respiratory issue and to get radiographs of her heart to see what damage she has from the HW. We are treating her with the slow kill method. Doxycycline and Heartgard. This is going to be the safest treatment for Jessy.

Her initial bill is 346.00 and she still needs her rabies shot and spay.
Jessy is a precious smiling beagle and I'm happy to report that her ordeal did not take away her beagle joy.

You can call the clinic at 606-780-0208 of use her chip in. If you call the clinic to donate, please let me know so I can adjust the chipin to reflect your donation.

Thank you!

Here is roughly what they have:

*one litter which has 4 black and brown pups and 2 tri-color ones - she thinks these will be smaller dogs when grown

*4 other litters - all mixed up - no idea what kind of dogs they are

*one litter of Golden Retriever mixes (posted below)

*one litter of 7 pups which may be Border Collie mixes

*one Lab mix momma with 7 pups - 5 are shorter-haired and 2 are longer-haired (one of which is black and brown and looks like a groundhog!)

SHADE Cane Corso Mastiff [Mix] Small Baby Female Pet ID: A402265
Shade" is a 4 month old Presa Canario / Cane Corso mix pup needing rescue. Shade is going to be a big girl but she's still a little sweetheart at this point. Destined to be a big sweetheart, we guess. She's currently 3-4 months old and she's very friendly. She loves people and other dogs. She likes to give kisses and is very comfortable with people she's just met. She's very soft and very friendly. Basically, Shade is a happy, wiggly puppy. If you would like to contact us about this dog, please have the ID# A402265 handy. Thanks  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15625354

DIVA Cane Corso Mastiff Small Young Female RESCUE PENDING!

This is "Diva"and she is 4 months old. She's at the shelter right now and has stolen my heart. She needs a home to call her own. Diva is spayed.  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15836569

ADOPTED!!"Marcus" is a 6 month old Cane Corso / St. Bernard mix. He is in need of rescue at Metro Animal Services. He is very sweet and great with other dogs. This boy id going to be HUGE.

TERRENCE Shih Tzu, Pug [Mix] Small Adult Male Dog Pet ID: A403975

Shih Tzu PictureTerrance is sweet. He's affectionate but not clingy. Terrance is probably around 2 years old. MAS cannot guarantee an animal is housebroken, but Terrance did go outside and to a private spot to relieve himself, which is an excellent sign. He likes his kennel mates a lot and loves to play, so he'd do well in a household that already has a dog. He can be energetic as he runs around the yard and plays, but he also settles down nicely for quiet time with humans. If you would like to contact MAS about this dog, please have the ID# (403975) handy. Thanks!

DELK 401848  Walker Treeing Coonhound  1-2 years  M (med.) URGENT!

  Delk is an elegant boy. He is friendly and loving and good with other dogs. He loves to run and play. When he runs, it is a thing of beauty. He’s affectionate with people, too, even ones he's just met. He's ready to play but he also is fine with standing still and being petted. While Metro cannot guarantee an animal is housebroken, Delk waited until he was outside to relieve himself. And it looked like he’d waited a long time for the opportunity. That’s a good sign. http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15587632

Dogs will go down tomorrow. Hard as we have tried it has gotten down to the wire. Pux Phil and Kansas are the first to die. HELP! We avoided this for so long but the pound has filled up like you would not believe and STAR cannot afford the board bill to hold them. Our board for Feb was $1500.
SUGAR is also urgent! No more funds are available to board her. The pound is full. A decision has to be made soon.

There is a transport scheduled for March 13th, leaving Kentucky Friday night the 12th. 
March 13th Asland KY> MD> PA> Phillipsburg NJ....possibly beyond if needed!!! Please, if you can take just one that helps a lot!!!! Please look at the dogs below and the shelter's website:

Kansas urgent Australian Shepherd [Mix] Large Young Male Dog NEXT TO DIE!! URGENT! 

Australian Shepherd PictureNext dog due to be put down..Kansas arrived at Pound 2/10. He was born in March 09'. Owner moved here from Kansas recently, but was not allowed to keep dog. She forgot to write down his name, so we are just calling him Kansas for now. He is a friendly boy and gets along great with Cain and Abel. Hopefully we can find him another home soon, as you can tell he doesn't understand why is now in a dog pen, instead of a house.  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15731229

Punxsutawney Australian Shepherd, Pit Bull Terrier [Mix] Large Adult Male  

Punxsutawney Phil is a lovable "groundhog", LOL. He did see his shadow and hopes not to spend 6 more weeks in the pound. He is very sweet with people, rolling over for belly rubs. His beautiful blue eyes can see right through to your heart. Unfortunately pit mixes rarely make it out of the pound alive. With their unflattering reputation, they are always a last choice. However the ones I have met through the years have almost all been very loving with people. I hope somebody will give "Phil" a chance. during the month of February.I think he has been abused, from his cowering. I've never heard him bark and he just sits waiting for a home.. He does get along with other dogs and has been moved to pen 6 with Ramey. He just hangs his head and lays on the bed. http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15669554

Brutus*  American Bulldog, Border Collie [Mix]  Large Adult Male URGENT!  WILL BE PTS IN THE NEXT 48 HOURS!

PLEASE save Brutus!  URGENT!! WILL BE PTS!!   # American Bulldog [Mix]MaleAdult Large He is a great family dog, loves kids and spends the day playing with his other 18 canine friends.  He does chase foster's horses and has been lingering in foster care since last April.  He will be PTS in the next 48 hours if a home or rescue cannot be found.  He is not housebroken because he does lift his leg inside the house.  He will use a "doggie door" to go in and out of the heated garage where he sleeps.  He has been living loose on a 100 acre farm and enjoys the creek and his play buddies.  If his only choice is for him to be chained, we would rather Brutus be PTS.  He has a loving personality and adores people.  PLEASE save this loving dog!!!!!!  PLEASE!
http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=13883592 

Sugar URGENT Spitz [Mix] Medium Adult Female URGENT!

Spitz Picture The Pound is full and we cannot afford to board Sugar, so a decision must be made to put her down... She is spayed. Sugar is around 2 years old who was dumped out in the county. She love kids and is a great dog but no cats for Sugar as she wants to play too rough. Apparently she doesn't like other dogs much either, so should go to home w/o other animals. Please give Sugar a home as you can see she is beautiful. If anyone can foster her until she finds a home that would be great, too. She weighs approx 40 lbs.  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15535249

Sunny/Sun Street Labrador Retriever, Chow Chow [Mix] Large Adult Female

Yellow Labrador Retriever PictureSunny's best friend went to rescue and she is feeling pretty lonely. Sunny has been kenneled long enough. Please someone adopt this lovable girl!  I have yet to see any dog aggression from Sonny at all. Not even when dogs run up to her run and bark at her. She really pays them no mind at all. Sonny is very sweet and just has a whole pile of energy! She has great potential.
She definitely has some yellow lab in her and since part of her tongue is black, I put chow mix too. Although not all black tongue dogs are chows... She is a very energetic friendly girl!

ELLA MAE Beagle [Mix] Small Senior Female RESCUED!

3-5-10 This sad old lady was picked up as a stray several days ago, but nobody has offered to claim her, or come looking for her. This poor old lady doesn't have a chance of getting adopted. It's heartbreaking especially. to see seniors end up at dog pound for the last days of their life.... She is in pen 4. http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15893652

Ramey Shepherd [Mix] Large Adult Male

Shepherd Picture This older guy was found in Clearfield KY 2/17. He isn't happy about being caged up, but at least he has a warm place to sleep tonight. He has some fur missing on his rear, which looks like an allergy reaction. Age is probably at least 6. He is located in pen 6.
http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15776449

Weary Labrador Retriever [Mix] Medium Young Female 

Labrador Retriever PictureThis young girl is the victim (as are so many) of irresponsible owners. She, her sister and her sister's puppies were dumped in a rural area to fend for themselves. She is scared, but not aggressive. The warden caught her in a live trap and brought her to the Pound 2/24. She just seems so tired and weary that the name "Weary" seems to fit. She is probably happy not to worry about food and a warm place to sleep tonight. This pitiful dog weighs about 40 # and is located in pen 4. When her sister (Sad Face) was picked up the next day, Weary has been like Velcro to her side.  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15830880

Miley Black Labrador Retriever [Mix] Medium Adult Female

Black Labrador Retriever Picture Sorry I wasn't able to capture a good photo of Miley, but she too is one of 20 dogs thrown out at a lady's house in rural KY. She weighs about 30-35 lbs. We can get her spayed if somebody will commit to rescue or adopt her. That cost would be about $53. She isn't more than 2 years, and had a litter of puppies in December.  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15813759

Spike English Pointer [Mix] Large Young Female
English Pointer Picture Spike was another of the 20+ dogs thrown out in rural eastern KY at a single woman's house. She has been trying to care for them on her own, but needs help in locating homes! Spike was recently spayed and we noticed the day I was there, that her incision had opened and her intestines were hanging out. This was on a Sunday and when I left, the lady was waiting for a vet to call her back. I felt so bad as she is trying her best to care for these dogs on her own. The "dog warden" in this county shoots strays on sight as they don't have a pound.

Bear Black Labrador Retriever Male large, Senior
It is so hard to be old. I am 12 and my family moved into a place that I couldn't go so here I am at the shelter. I will probably never get out alive as not many people want an old used up dog. I may be 12 years old but I can still get up and move. The lady that came to see me the other day says I am a very fiesty boy for my age. Could you find it in your heart to give an old guy like me a place to live out his golden years in peace and comfort?  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15791766

Frankfort, KY: Desperate situation for 30 penned/chained dogs

****************************************************************************************************
UPDATE 3/10 - POSTED 3/5   Please read the poignant plea below from Tara asking for rescue help for these poor dog and cat FRIENDS living in horrific conditions.  Their human guardian has died and their death is eminent if help can't be found for them.

Contact Tammi if you can help with any of these animals. Phone: 859 620 5323    tammikinrup@yahoo.com

Hello Everyone,

Yesterday I spent all day along with fellow rescuer Tracy Miller in Frankfort, KY. the state's capitol ,going to see and photograph these dogs whose guardian died a few weeks ago. His family contacted me to try and help find good homes for them. They are locked in a huge court battle with a next door neighbor over the dogs, and all they want is to find them good homes. The pictures we got are of most of the dogs, 24 were on site, another 5 or 6 are at a friend's house. Some were too shy to come out of the dog houses, but most were eager for some attention. All look well fed, but none are spayed/neutered or vetted. Most are in pens, and a few are chained. The man who passed away took in any dog that showed up. The country road that these people live on had a penned or chained dog at every home. One place we counted had at least a dozen pit bulls chained up in the woods. All together we easily saw 50 chained and penned dogs just on this country road. No wonder Kentucky ranks dead last for laws protecting animals! This family also had about 15 un-fixed cats running around, and we were told 4 dogs inside the house that we weren't allowed to see. This is a desperate situation and the pictures cannot show how bad the conditions are for these poor dogs.

I don't even know where to start , so I'm starting with DDB. Please crosspost these dogs far and wide.  I am also open to any advice from those of you who have had large numbers of dogs that need rescue. I am the contact person, we have age and sex info on the dogs if it is needed. Thank you for your help,

Tammi Kinman Ruppert

Charlie~Urgent~ Black Labrador Retriever [Mix] Large Adult Male  URGENT!
 Black Labrador Retriever Picture Meet Charlie, he has the sweetest brown eyes ever, and when you look into them, they beg for you to take him home! Charlie is such a sweetheart when it comes to people, he is so eager to give you kisses and for you to pay attention to him. When you spend any amount of time with him it is hard to believe that he has a mean bone in his body, however, Charlie doesn't like other dogs :( Unfortunately when we tried Charlie in with other dogs we quickly saw that it wasn't going to work. At the shelter dogs have to be able to get along with each other in order for us to be able to keep them until they are adopted. That is the reason that Charlie is listed as urgent. Right now his only hope is that someone who doesn't have any other dogs can take him home! Charlie has never showed any aggression to people, just towards other dogs. If you are looking for an addition to your home and are only interested in having one dog then Charlie could be the dog for you! Please come in and meet him soon, his time at the shelter is very limited.  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15798333

Pit Bull Terrier Picture Paisley is one of the sweetest girls here at the shelter! She is a gorgeous girl who was surrendered to us by her owners with an unexpected litter of puppies!  They have all been adopted now and this poor little Mama is ready to stop having babies and start being one herself!!! Paisley is great with children, very gentle with other dogs, and we would love to see her find a great indoor home where she can really be the center of attention for the first time in her life. This girl deserves the best that life can offer her, and we know that once you spend a minute with her you will see how special she is!  http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15683647

After having a warm, comfy home for 15 YEARS, I am now here, in the shelter, trying to find the perfect home where I can spend the rest of my days http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15447270

Milo~HW Positive German Shepherd Dog [Mix] Large Adult Male

German Shepherd Dog Picture Milo was surrendered by his owner because he was chasing sheep! We don't hold that against him. He is a wonderful dog who is very submissive with other dogs.

Lucy2 Yellow Labrador Retriever Large Adult Female
Yellow Labrador Retriever Picture Returned Adoption/Severe Separation Anxiety  Approximate Age: 1 Year Lucy is a gorgeous yellow lab, who needs a new home! Lucy is an active dog who suffers from severe separation anxiety, and must have a home with someone who is experienced with this. An ideal home would be someone who works from home, or could take Lucy to doggie daycare. Lucy is full of life and hopes that her perfect home is out there and waiting as anxiously for her as she is them. http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15847336

Belle~Sad~ Pit Bull Terrier Large Adult Female

Pit Bull Terrier Picture  Our hearts broke with the sight of this sad girl. Not only could we see the obvious physical wounds with infection and swelling from unknown causes, but it was obvious that this wonderfully sweet girl has been used for nothing but breeding her entire life. At only 2 years old it shows that she has had numerous litters of puppies. She was found abandoned in a ditch on the side of the road and someone called our emergency pager with worries about her health and safety. With all of her wounds and health issues this lovely girl is concerned with nothing more than receiving love and attention from you. Once she is in better health we will try her with other dogs, in hopes that she does well, and can recover at the shelter and be able to find a wonderful, loving home that she deserves more than anything else in the world. http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15847414

Tess~ Rottweiler [Mix] Large Young Female

Rottweiler Picture This is Tess, she was adopted from us when she was just a baby. Now she is almost a year old and her family has found they had an allergy to dogs. Tess is a sweet girl that gets along well with other dogs. She will make a great addition to some lucky family.

Princess Chihuahua Small Senior Female

Chihuahua Picture  This little girl definitely deserves her name. She is as SWEET as sugar and CUTE as a button. Princess was transferred to us so that she could have a chance to live out her golden years in a loving home. Unlike many dogs of her breed, she is not nippy with people she doesn’t know, just a little shy. You can see in her soft brown eyes how much she wants to be LOVED and how much love she has to offer others. After probably eating canned food for the majority of her life, Princess is now in DESPERATE need of a dental. She will most likely lose all of her teeth, but don’t let that discourage you from spending time with this AMAZING sweetheart. She will just be a toothless princess still worthy of ROYAL treatment!!  Sometimes it can be really hard to find homes for seniors, but we know that her forever family is just waiting to find her. Princess DESERVES to live out her many more years being snuggled in bed and laying in the warm sunshine. Please give this wonderful baby a chance to show you how wonderful life really can be in the presence of royalty. Could you be her knight in shining armor? Spend some time with Princess today! http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=1586376

Erlanger, KY: Female GSD Mix Needs a New Home

**************************************************************************************************
POSTED 3/3  The family dog protective of the new baby and needs a new home.  Please help keep her from the shelter!

Our dog's name is Roxy.  She will be two years old on August 12th.  She is the German Shepherd mix in the picture. (I can't find my camera to take a picture of her right now)

She was ok around my friends dog (in the picture), but she is kennel aggressive.  We have had her since she was a puppy.  She has always been around children.  She is very protective of our house and barks and gets upset when strangers come over.  Recently I gave birth to our sixth child, and Roxy seems to think she's her puppy??  She growls at the kids when they get close to the baby.  So I'm not sure about being around kids.

She is housebroken and spayed.  She is due for two shots, but I can get those before someone takes her.

 We live in Erlanger , Ky

Ziggy needs help! He was the only dog who did not have rescue this week, an amazing transporter stepped in and offered to pay for all his vetting so that he would not be put to sleep this morning - now all he needs is a rescue
or a forever family who can see his charms.
  He is (perhaps) a boxer mix and he is terrified in the shelter. Hillary (the shelter's only volunteer) says that he is super sweet - there is no pull fee for approved rescues, a transporter
is paying this boy's vetting, and transport can always be organized - Can you offer him a chance?

Boxer PictureZiggy Boxer/Lab Mix  EXTREMELY URGENT! Ziggy is a lovely boy; probably a Boxer/Lab mix, but it is hard to tell for sure. He gets along well with other dogs, but is scared in the shelter. So cute and sweet! http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15850031

Louisville KY: Gray long-haired kitty needs home by Mar 22

****************************************************************************************************
POSTED 3/2

Clooney the cat

We trapped a young, small gray, long-haired kitty, taken him to snip clinic (one ear now slightly tipped) and have him in my kitty condo.  Unfortunately, he is more shy and wild than the potential adopter thought he might be.  She needs me to find another place for him before March 22. 

He is pretty "wild" in that he is quite fearful.  I don't know what his experience with human has been. He did settle down a little with his first "captor, " and would stretch out in the condo, clean himself, eat, etc. with her quietly sharing the room. Now, he is in a second location with other animals (two cats and a Shih Tzu) and a young family. (Kitty is still housed in my kitty condo).

Is there ANY chance that you know anyone who could keep him to get him used to people and being inside?  I think his temperament and age lend themselves to a positive outcome but it will take some time. 

Thank you.

Middle TN: URGENT Dog Killing Party - UPDATE

***********************************************************************************************
Good News UPDATE 3/3 - POSTED 3/1  PLEASE READ AND CROSS POST

ALL of the small breed dogs were pulled just yesterday to be TEMPORARILY housed by a small rescue in Western TN.  We will still need other rescues and foster families to step up and help these poor angels find permanent, loving forever homes.  Susan Truscott of Best Friends has taken all of the BIG dogs... the ones who we were told are aggressive and bite (NONSENSE!  They are just starved for food and affection!  Every one of the "vicious ones" gave me kisses and let me pet them head to toe!) back to her own house to be TEMPORARILY housed until, again, our network of Rescues, friends and Cross-posters help us to find those permanent, loving forever homes!
 
 Please understand that while the dogs are now out of immediate danger, they are by no means "out of the woods".  They will need vetting, food, basic care (poop scooping, etc.) and all of that will require our continued efforts to network for these dogs - now for volunteers and donations as well as homes!  As soon as I get the information for Cole's Mom's rescue (if she is a 501c3 or not) and an address where we can deliver donations, like food, blankets, cash :o), I will send it out.

 We are still working on finding assistance for all the feral and friendly cats on site.  Please do not forget these babies... they need us desperately.

 Thanks for staying in contact and following up with me on these poor angels...   I'll let you know as soon as I can about any future developments!

THE PROBLEM: An elderly woman in the Carthage/Smith County area of Middle Tennessee has taken in 30 dogs over the years. She has had to move and her new neighbor is threatening to shoot the dogs. They have already killed two of her cats. NICE NEIGHBORS! The neighbor has been calling in people to come help shoot the dogs. You've heard of painting parties and barn raisings? Well, this is a dog killing party! Only one rescue has volunteered to step in and help, but one rescue simply cannot do this alone. We are willing to help pick the dogs up and transport them in this area on Saturday. We simply need places to put them. No one rescue has room for 30 dogs. Nashville Metro Animal Control first said they would take them, but have now backed out on that. If any of you know of Metro, it's certainly the last place you would want to take an animal. All these dogs have allegedly been spayed/neutered, including the 5 or so puppies. We understand that all but 3 of the dogs are very social. COME ON PEOPLE! We need HELP! Please don't sit and wait for someone else to do this. YOU ARE SOMEONE!! Time is running and this is critical.

UPDATE: After two wonderful volunteers and their husbands went on-site Saturday, we have pictures available. Follow this link: http://www.onetruemedia.com/shared?p=a7546bc79220fa94f283d5&skin_id=1603

After viewing, you will have to agree that this situation is indeed URGENT. For the moment, the shooting situation is stabilized but it does remain shaky at best. We are desperate for either rescues in the Middle Tennessee area to step up and take in just one or two of these wonderful souls or, at the very least, help us get them into boarding and to veterinary care by making a donation to Critter Cavalry Rescue. ANY amount will help..these babies are desperate and we are desperate to help them. Please follow this link if you can help financially. http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/crittercavalry.html We sincerely thank each and every one of you for your thoughts and prayers. Now, if the rescues will just "COME TO THE RESCUE"!!!

Please email me at TNLadyDriver@aol.com This is URGENT and it certainly is NO JOKE!!! We are currently trying to contact the HSUS but TIME is running out.  The Sheriff's Office can't do anything until "after the fact". PLEASE HELP US...BE SOMEONE TODAY!!!! Be a RESCUER in the truest sense of the word!

UPDATE 3/4 - POSTED 3/1

CONTACT KASEY  legaldiva02@yahoo.com

I have been really disheartened by the lack of response and/or support I have received for Chomp.  I need your help.  Obviously I am not going to find him a new foster home or forever home around here---- doesn't look like it anyway.  If you can get him into a rescue or foster in the NE or in another area, I will continue to foster him until there is an opening and/or he can be transported to a place where they don't discriminate.  Also, I will pay for and take him to get vetted and neutered.  Please give me any help/assistance you can.  I know many of you are focused on dogs on the urgent list in shelters, but Chomp was on the streets in a dire situation.  He can't go to a shelter because they will kill him b/c of his breed. This is the last email I will send on him.  I help out any way I can when you have situations such as this...  I transport, I work adoption days, I circulate emails, I help make vital contacts/connections.  I need your help now. 

Kasey


I desperately need help for "Spot".  I was out serving warrants (I'm a process server) in a not so great area of Nashville (the kind of area you just want to drive through and not stop for anything).  On the way out, I spotted this approx 12 wk old puppy hiding behind a guardrail along the busy road..... he was terrified, you could tell.  I jumped out in the middle of traffic and went to get him.... at first he growled at me and backed away terrified.  Eventually he came to me and I was able to pick him up.   My husband and I took him home with us, but he can't stay.  He is the sweetest puppy....extremely submissive.  But he's terrified of everything...and he was starving when I picked him up--he's gobbled up 2 bowls of food.

  He's all white with a
black spot by his eye... looks like a Pit Bull/Dalmatian mix to me, so he probably would be killed if picked up by Metro.  I have him in a kennel at my house but its not an ideal situation.  My 3 giant dogs can't be mixed with others.  They are extremely territorial and protective and I believe my St. B, Debo, would hurt or maybe even kill him.  So I have to keep them separate.  Also, I work 2 jobs and am in grad school, so I am gone for up to 16 hours per day.... I am never here.  I can't keep him in a kennel in my house for such long days. He's a sweetheart.  He doesn't even cry in the kennel...he's so good. 

I need help finding him a temp foster home ASAP.  I am begging.  I will make a donation toward his vet care.  He might have a family looking for him.....but honestly I'd be afraid of returning him to the neighborhood I found him in!

 Help!  If you can offer "Spot" a place to crash (I can loan a kennel if need be)... please call me
615-440-2891 or email me: legaldiva02@yahoo.com

Lafayette, IN: URGENT Rescue Needed!

POSTED 2/28

Contact SavingHoosierDogs@gmail.com if you can rescue Elroy!!

6-8 month old puppy living in a filthy, smelly, cockroach and mouse infested apartment will go to a BREEDER if not rescued!

 
The owners can't keep this pup as they just got on an assisted living program and it doesn't allow them to have pets. They are giving us ONE WEEK to find rescue for him.

If not, a family member--who is a BREEDER--will take him!!! The last thing this city needs is more pit bulls being reproduced!!

Please save this pup from a life of making more pit puppies!! His name is Elroy. He is only 6-8 months old. He's good with other dogs and kids. He's friendly, sweet, but a bit submissive. It sounds like the owners are pretty rough with him.

BATH COUNTY, KY 14 Year old Shoots Dog's Leg--Donations Needed

**************************************************************************************************
POSTED 2/28  PLEASE CROSSPOST! NEED MONETARY ASSISTANCE FOR ANNA'S AMPUTATION -  EVEN IF YOU CAN'T HELP, PASSING THIS ON WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!

Many of you may recall Dusty, the Golden Mix, that was hung at the end of a backhoe in his front yard and nothing was done in Bath County, KY.  Now we have this beautiful Anatolian Shepherd, Anna, who was shot by a 14 year old with a rifle. The shots shattered her rear leg into 15 pieces. OF COURSE, no one has identified the perpetrator and, given the abysmal record of county officials, it's unlikely Anna will ever see any justice for the crime committed against her.

Eastern Kentucky Animal Rescue (Sylvia's Sanctuary) has taken in this wonderful dog and had her leg amputated. Their vet bills at present are close to $10,000 in their effort to help so many abused animals in this county. We are trying to recoup the $450.00 for Anna's amputation. If you can help, please click on the chip in below. No amount is too small. CHIP IN : http://rdelotell.chipin.com/anna

Anna is in foster care, but will need permanent placement once she recovers. For more information or to help Anna further please contact Susan Little at soapdiva44@yahoo.com

ALL PAYPAL DONATIONS ARE DEPOSITED INTO EASTERN KENTUCKY ANIMALS RESCUE'S PAYPAL ACCOUNT. THEY ARE A 501c3 MAKING DONATIONS DEDUCTIBLE TO THE EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS!

Drake *URGENT* Border Collie, Labrador Retriever Large Adult Male Dog Pet ID: 12/13/09

Drake is housed in front run 4. He is a sweet little gentleman that has little chance of being "picked" out of the overcrowded shelter as a black dog. It takes a special person to adopt a “plain black dog.” Shelters and rescue groups are flooded with black labs and black lab mixes, who suffer from “plain black dog” syndrome. Rescue groups will often receive 20 applications for a yellow lab mix for every 1 for a black lab mix of the same age, health, and temperament. http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15330155

Fearless - URGENT Pit Bull Terrier [Mix] Large Adult Male ADOPTED!

He is a very sweet boy and appears to be part pit bull mix.  Please give Fearless a chance at life...He also seems to do well with other dogs and would make a great family dog. http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=15410627

******************************************************************************************************
POSTED 2/25   Please crosspost to anyone that can help!

Can someone please take these 4 Beagles. They are in urgent need or rescue or adoption. They are older dogs, and just need somewhere to retire. Such sad stories. If you can help with even one please contact Mandy with Auglaize County Humane Society in Ohio. admin@achs-pets.com  PH: (419) 738-7808

 

Buster was brought to us with another dog, a Sheltie named Laddie. Both were brought in because their owner could no longer take care of them and had to go to a nursing home. Laddie was adopted. Sadly Buster is an elderly beagle  10years + and no one will give him a chance. The only thing sadder than Buster having no where to go is his best friend Hank.

Hank is an elderly beagle as well and was left abandoned in a pen out in front of our shelter.
 
Vinny is another sad story.... Was dumped out in front of the shelter. A few months later a younger man came to the shelter claiming that Vinny's real name was Pappy and it was his dog, which was true. He said that he would be back for Vinny the very next day, but he never came. Since then he has been to the shelter claiming to come bring Vinny home more than 4 times. Could someone please give him a forever home?
 
William is around 8 years+.  He was another beagle dumped out in front of the shelter. He is a great boy and loves to walk on a leash. He is your typical beagle and would love to have a forever home.

Good News UPDATE 3/4 - POSTED 2/25  STILL Need money for Chewie the black chow for boarding and training classes, please help us save this neglected and abused boy~ boarding needed until he goes to foster in St. Louis


Hi Friends,

I am forwarding you this a great update, just wanted to keep you posted on Chewey's progress and of course to ask for a donation for him if you haven’t done so yet. Please read Tammi’s email below.

The total bill for 3 weeks of care and training by Eric the behaviorist is $300, a super discounted price.  The new photo of Chewy is at the daycare. What a difference a few weeks and a little TLC makes! Eric said he is responding wonderfully and great with other dogs.

Thanks for your help with this Gallatin county shelter dog!

  To Donate to Chewey’s, training, kennel and transport to his new foster home in 3 weeks, please mail a check for any amount to:

  “Eric Humbert”  (trainer)

 Mail to 1191 Hatcher Court , Independence , KY. 41051.(Tammi’s address)

  Thanks soo much for your help and support.

 Tammi

Hi Everyone,

We got good news today for Chewie, the poor black Chow at Gallatin County that was left there by his owners who couldn't handle him. He was chained and unruly, no wonder he was mad. Instead of letting him die, we have all been working to get him some help. A wonderful trainer is going to work with him and board him till he goes to a Chow rescue on March 18th. DDB is getting him vetted and the trainer will be taking him to St. Louis on March 18th.

So we need help for him so that he can be boarded at The Pet Spot in Norwood and worked with being socialized. He has come along great in just a few hours of being worked with. Please let me know if you can contribute towards Chewie's rehabilitation.

Thank you, and Chewie thanks you too. He looks pretty rough, but is going to the vet and the groomer tomorrow.

Thanks,

Tammi Kinman Ruppert

Owenton, KY: Dogs Needing Foster/Rescue/Adoption

**************************************************************************************************
POSTED 2/24

We know how many rescue pleas go out each day, but Owen County sees very little offers from rescue groups. They are very rescue-friendly and their dogs are in need. The dogs spend almost all of the day in isolated mason-block kennels with no lights on, and they have no local volunteers that will exercise the animals. The dogs get food, water, and a pat on the head. Many of these dogs sit in the shelter for MONTHS like this, waiting to be rescued. Please consider working with Owen County if you have not done so in the past. Low-cost vetting options are available.

OCFA do everything in their power to avoid euthanasia and this should be rewarded with rescue offers! Please consider rescuing from Owen Co.

Contact Debbie at debbie.strong@owen.kyschools. us or call Hilari at 502-514-1539 to offer assistance. These two women spend countless hours each week cleaning the kennels and feeding the dogs as there is no paid shelter employee/caretaker.

Olive Basset Hound, Jack Russell Terrier [Mix]   Small Adult Female URGENT --NEEDS NEW FOSTER HOME/ADOPTION/RESCUE ASAP!
Olive is a Basset/Beagle mix. She is extremely loving, and loves attention; but she needs a home with NO cats.  Her front legs are deformed and she becomes extremely agitated if you try to clip her nails or touch her feet. She has no mobility problems from the deformation. She is very fast and can easily jump to heights of 2-3 feet. She is house-trained, fixed and UTD on her shots. Olive is five to six years old.
