goes toward Tulsa Animal Welfare and with many of these
dogs destined
to be euthanized at the
shelter, a day dedicated
to these animals could not be more important and should serve as a reminder that they need all the love they can get.
The Muncie Animal
Shelter released this call

:) also in my state... haha, there's like 2 purebred GSDs in ALL the
shelters that I've seen and they're all older and not good w / kids and
dogs or cats so... that's not gonna work.
We typically will allow
dogs who have been in the kennels at our

From my co-writer Kim Campbell Thornton in this week's Pet Connection: In January, a sporting
dog rescue group asked Lori - Lynn Clayton of San Angelo, Texas,
to go look at a
dog in her local
shelter thought -LSB-...]
It would make more sense for me

shelter where the animals are in more dire circumstances than
to go through a rescue group where the
dog is 2 1/2 times as much
to adopt and in a foster home.
Our co-founders

dogs and cats whom no one was adopting and simply had nowhere

shelter or the street, including Mr. Mo's Simon, featured above!
Hopefully, they will
go to the city
shelter, but they are more likely
to go to a pet store, a breeder, Craigslist or the family down the street whose
dog or cat just had a litter.
If you are tempted

dog have just one litter,

to us or
to the
shelter because the death of owner and other family members don't want the
dog; working too many hours; doesn't get along with a new puppy; there is a new baby in the house; need

dogs are not allowed; kids
going off
to college; allergies; and the new spouse doesn't like them.

So, if you
go into a
shelter to adopt a
dog, and the kennel sign has a
dog labeled as a «Pit» or «Pit Mix», when it actually is a «Shepherd / Hound Mix» for example, more than likely you and many other potential adopters or rescuers will overlook this animal simply because someone at the
shelter «guessed» that it might be a «Pit».
Again I find myself at the
shelter... This time looking for a
dog that will be big... I see mastiff puppies... Allegedly... They tell me she is

Somebody (or, in our case, some
dog) is
going to die, because the resouces (seats in the boat, space in the
shelter / rescue / foster / pound) can only save so many.
Unfortunately
dogs don't come into
shelter's with AKC papers attached

go into places that sell
dogs, and would never buy one when so many need
to be adopted from
shelters, but this interesting little
dog looked like it would make a great companion for my crazy ACD cross.

going through the
shelter system.

dog, you only
go on the information that the person who brings a family pet in
to surrender it
to the
shelter.
