Time Running Out For Older Dogs
Here's another message I received:
I am in Clayton County in Jonesboro in GA We are getting some many new dogs turned in that we need to get some of the dogs that we have had on petfinder for the longest out of there. I mean the front door and not the back. The 2 senior dogs that we have are both very nice well behaved and they appear to be house broken. One of the two did know some commands when he came in . Bandit is the one who knows some commands . He is sweet and he smiles. He loves for you to give him hugs. Please this dog is too nice to end up the the gas chamber. Ozzie is the other older dog we have in. He sits and waits for his turn to go out I have to walk by his run on the way out so I see his little face every time and it makes me sick to think he will not make it out . He hold his bathroom /tries to until he gets to go and and then he is a happy little man
Huxley has a broken / injured hip and sits in the pound on the hard cold cement floor. Even with his injuries he is a sweet dog that needs a chance. It makes me sad to say but if he does not get out this week he will be put down. He should not sit there in that condition. Some donations offers have come in but unless someone comes for him it will not matter.
I put dutch in this mail because I love him.
thank you for your time .. Claudia
Here's Another I Recieved...
I am begging for someone to come in and pull these animals. We are having to plea, beg, cry to get them to let us keep the ones on petfinder out of the gas chamber. We have had some of them on the list for a few weeks and they keep asking which ones they can put down. They do try to work with the animal to give them a little extra time but we get more and more animals in and they are all so nice that we keep putting new ones on the site. This means that the shelter is full and decision have to be made. I cant do it I know each and everyone of these animals and I don't want to have any of them put down. I know this is a problem everywhere every day but it does not make it any easier. Please rescue one so one can stay safe. The ones who are the most in need are Dutch who is a big guy but he is so nice , he smiles when I walk by please help Dutch out he is a great dog and would make someone a wonderful family member. All it takes is for one person /group to step forward an pull this wonderful big hearted dog. Next is Bandit and Ozzie. They are older dogs about 8 years . I think these two dogs are house broken due to the fact they will hold it all day long. They are sweet and I hate to see a dog end up his life dying in the gas chamber . If you would come and look at these dogs you will fall in love with them and so will the people that adopt from you. Huxley is a dog that has been sitting here with a broken leg/or hip. He is a good boy and is very loving even if he is in pain. The thing is I was hoping someone would help him. There is some donations being offered to help but as you all know this shelter dose not vet their animals. So Huxley is just waiting for someone to save him.. It has come to the point a decision needs to be made if he is not rescued. We just do not want him to sit there in pain. We do not get to say anything to the people who work there we are just volunteers and only allowed to stay if we do not cause a fuss . So please someone come in an adopt any of these or other animals at this shelter. If you have a question about an animal here I will try my best to answer you. Thank You for your time. cl.......... ......... .
