[Cinder & Smoke]

MUGSY! - Ya gotta ADVERTISE!!

Step Rit Up, Folks - an Take a Peek :cool: ~

Here's a Petfinder link to Mugsy's NEW Shelter...

:) Cobb Care Humane Society, Inc :D (http://www.petfinder.org/shelters/IN136.html)

Lookin GUD, Molly!! ;)

[Sudilar]

Molly, how did this wonderful event take place? Please tell the story (when you get a chance) of how this all happened. Thanks! Wow, this is just so great!! Good luck and congrats to you!

[mugsy]

Well one day a few months ago I was surfing Petfinder and saw Cobb Care Humane Society in New Haven, IN (which is basically connected to Fort Wayne). So I called and Vicki and I talked and that was about it. Well on and off during the school year I would call her (in fact she was going to take Spot if Amy hadn't) and we would talk. Then when school got out I called her and told her I was free for the summer and what did she want done. She responded, "Where should I start!" I laughed and then volunteered to help her with the booth at Canal Days (the kick off to Northeast Indiana's festival season). Well, Mike and I got REALLY involved and she liked how pushy I was telling people we needed donations and people responded. In fact, another vendor came over and dropped a $5 bill in the bottle and wanted more information and came over to Vicki's house (where the shelter is housed for the moment) and wants little Foxy, the cutest little dog you've ever seen, which is a Heinz 57 and we can't figure out WHAT she is! lol Anna got to meet Foxy yesterday when she dropped Rose off.

And like Phred said......HELP US OUT!! lol

Vicki started this last August and has her not for profit status and is run totally off donations and pet adoptions. She now is able to give shots (except Rabies) and she got her free Avid reader and she will microchip the pet if they pay her $10...an incredible deal. And for awhile she was doing EVERYTHING. She now has a secretary and decided that 3 days ago that she wanted me to be vice president because I'm just so darn mouthy! hehehehe

[Sudilar]

What a great story. Sounds like fate to me!!!! Good luck to you and the shelter. I hope you save many many lives (I KNOW you will!!) Thanks for sharing the story.

[mugsy]

Hey Amy, just so you know....Jade and Xena's parents were: dad; full black lab, mom: 1/2 lab and 1/2 coonhound.

Congratulations Molly, I'm sure there will be many dogs rescued with you at the helm. I love your new signature and I have to tell you I have fallen in love with Sophie, she looks just like Daisy.
Jackie, Perry and Miss Daisy

Vicki couldn't have chosen a more perfect person for the job!:) Congratualtions, Mollly!!! This is a job you were destined to have! Lucky dogs, having you there as their guardian angel!:)

[captain]

Bossy and pushy - the 2 BEST things ever ............ :) :D

[Foam]

Well I don't know about all that! But I do fit both adjectives! lol

[Christiansmommy]

Wow, that is great!! It must be so exciting....Congrats on a great accomplishment. Now we just cant wait to hear about each pup that gets adopted :)

Robyn

[mugsy]

Oh trust me, you will!! You'll be begging me to knock it off!!

[bnormal]

mugsy, congratulations! Ohio still has kill shelters? What are we, barbaric? Yeah, I forgot...we still have morons in this state that are "entertained" by dog fighting...

:mad: :mad: :mad:

I think my wife needs to know that we need to rescue at least 1 more Dobe!

:D :D :D

[mugsy]

We have some great dogs that need good homes....are you sure it has to be a Dobie??? ;)

[bnormal]

mugsy, in the event that I could talk my wife into getting a 3rd pooch it would have to be a Dobie! Can a person become addicted to a particular breed?

I know it is a huge struggle to find homes for these dogs. My wife and I rescued Mitchy back in October and I can't fathom this boy being dumped by the moron breeder...he is a terrific boy!

I apologize that I can't take in another pooch...I would love to!


:D :D :D

:mad: :mad: :mad:


Not only does Ohio still have kill shelters, but some of the worst ones!! There are still counties that don't use lethal injection, but rather either shot the dogs, or gas them, sometimes by car exhaust! It is disgusting :mad: :mad: :mad:

If you want to read more about it or see some of the worst offenders there is a really good site, here (http://ohiohumaneeducation.org)



Come on dear, just one more dobe?

3 dogs seems to be the popular number right nowAnna got her 3rd last year, we got a third, lovemyshiba, delidog....all the cool kids are doing it!!!

[mugsy]

Does that mean because we have 20 we are extra cool or the not so cool? lol

bnormal, just be warned, if we get a Dobie in, you'll be the first one we contact! ;)

Btw....the Brown County Humane Society has a GORGEOUS Dobie....MEET JARED

[bnormal]

Cincy'sMom, I'll have to explain to my boss (wife) what the "cool kids" are up to...

yeah, right...wish me lotsa luck!

:D :D :D

[bnormal]

mugsy, Jared is a beautiful boy. I've never seen a Dobe with that coloring before.

Unfortunately, as I mentioned I am not able to get another pooch at the moment.:(

However, you let me know the minute you get a Dobe in!



:D :D :D

Yep, Amy's right...all the "cool kids" are doing it;)

Lotsa Luck explaining to the boss (wife)!!!

And Molly...you guys are extra, extra cool:D

[Dakota's Mommy]

CONGRATS MUGSY! Nobody could do the job better than you as you've already proved it with your group! I'm so happy for you and for the animals that you will help to save under this new position in your life! Congrats again!

[bnormal]

Gee Anna, I think everyone on PT from Ohio is cool...and indiana

:D :D :D

[Cincy'sMom]

:D :D :D

I've figured it out...bring your wife and the boys to the Dog Park on the 13th to meet all the "cool" people from Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Utah, etc, etc, and let your wife see how well the "3's" of dogs get along, AND let Molly have at her face to face...Molly is a hard person to say no to!!!

[lovemyshiba]

Molly, you and Mike are extra cool--and extra special too:D

bnormal--a rescue here has a white dobe--have you ever seen one?? He is just beautiful. Unfortunately, they do not adopt out of state, so I won't tempt you with the picture.

[mugsy]

I'm not sure that's a good thing! lol:p

[Cincy'sMom]

For Spot and Rose it is :)

[mugsy]

Except that Rose is STILL here! We are going to move her over to the building tomorrow morning. Mike is finishing up another kennel tonight after work so we can put Sherry in that one and put Rose in the free standing one away from the others. It will also give us a chance to test her with other dogs.

[bnormal]

lovemyshiba, I've only seen a white Dobe in pictures. I've read on a few sites where white Dobes have skin problems. Poor dogs.

:D :D :D

[mugsy]

I wish I could trust Rose with other dogs because I would bring her on the 13th in a second.

[anna_66]

Amy has the right idea bnormal, why don't you join us with your boys and your wife on the 13th, we have a heck of a time:D
Then you could say to her "Look how 3 get along so well... Come on dear, just one more Dobe?":)

Oh, it would be so nice if Rose could come, I'd love to see her. If Vicki takes any more pics of her post them, ok?

[bnormal]

The day my wife says, "3 is cool" would be quickly followed by, "but one of YOU has to go" and guess which one that would be...

:D :D :D

[mugsy]

Brad I think you should make a trip up to Findlay....we would love to meet you and if you guys came it would add just one more touch of testosterone!! ;)

[bnormal]

Mugsy, I would love to meet you guys...I bet you guys have a blast!

I apologize that I keep saying that we'll try to make it and never do.

Your getting together on the 13th? I'll talk to the boss.

"add just one more touch of testosterone"

Is that in reference to me or my boys? or all 3?


:D :D :D

[bnormal]

Mugsy, I just went on your site...you have got a bunch of pooches! You are truly blessed!

too cool!!!

:D :D :D

[mugsy]

Which site? Cobb Care or the site made for all of our own?

[bnormal]

I think it is your site...their are 20 dogs pictured...

:D :D :D

[mugsy]

Ahhhhh....Thanks!!! You can see the animals at shelter too. Go to www.petfinder.com and go to the top and choose shelters/rescues and then choose Indiana. Scroll down to New Haven and there we are. Click on that and there is the list.
