Still thinking of you guys and the dogs. Add our hugs to the list. {{{{HUGS}}}}
and mine
{{{HUGS!!!!}}}
and more {{{{HUGS}}}}}
me too {{{{HUGS}}}}
Thank you guys. You made me cry. It's still SO hard. I had a really hard day at school today because everyone kept asking me about the dogs and I had to keep telling them that I wasn't ready to talk about it. We are stilling trying to keep ahead of code enforcement who comes back tomorrow morning. So, no rest for the weary. I have to go downstairs and rip it apart to clean again and continue the daunting task of catching up on the laundry. I feel like a wet noodle at this point. Anyone want to come over and help? ;) :p
By the way what do you think of the cartoon in my signature?
I LOVE THE CARTOON!!!!! I knew it was the religion of doG!!!!
Good luck with the "enforcer" tomorrow.
Sending more {{{HUGS}}} and positive thoughts your way :)
{{{{HUGS}}}}
Thanks Amy, for the pictures. They made me cry too, but they are beautiful.
Oh {{{Molly}}}, {{{Mike}}},
I was away and didn't get this news till now. What a shock. So sorry that there doesn't seem to be anything to say. Fingers and paws are crossed here for you for tomorrow's inspection, and prayers will be said, too.
Hang in there. What a nightmare for you all.
Oh, here's another {{{Hug!}}}
Me TOO!! {{{{HUGS}}}}
I love your sig..
Us Seven, too....

Ok, I had another meltdown tonight. Rosie from Southside Animal Shelter called and told me that Max was adopted today. I fell apart. I called Brown County Humane Society and Leigh Ann told me that she was going to send Pebbles and possibly Dio (probably Dio) to Milwaukee to the no kill shelter up there and they signed a contract saying that if they don't get adopted right away that they will send them back. I can't call the SPCA to check on Serenity and Vonney. I am trying to find someone to call and check on them for me. Rosie said that Sammy is fine and doing quite well. I'm just NOT having a good night dealing with things. Thanks for letting me vent.
Oh Mugsy ........ know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
I would phone the SPCA on your behalf ..... give me the number to call!
{{{{HUGS}}}}
Oh Max.... our Miracle Max. *hugs and kisses* We will miss you so much. :( :)
And I hope Pebbles and Dio do okay in Milwaukee....
Lovely Vonney and Serenity..... my thoughts are with you.
All of them... *HUGS*
and with you two angels, Mike and Molly. *HUGS*
Molly,
I didn't want to say anything about it but I saw Max & Sammi's
pictures on the Southside Animal Shelter Petfinder page yesterday
:( They looked so good & they were given a very good write up.
I know it is hard to see it as good news, but it is. As much as I hate to think of your dogs not with you, I'm sure Rosie picked Max's new family very carefully. It has to feel good to him to be back in a home, instead of a shelter, even though he'll always miss you. And Pebbles and Dio will be taken care and watched out for I'm sure....moving them to a no-kill keeps them out of danger, and since Leigh Ann has worked with you and knows you I'm sure she has the dogs best interest at heart too...and if she has any doubts she has left herself the option of getting them back. I hope Serenity and Vonney are fairing as well.
I also saw the write ups and thought they were very nice...made it clear that the dogs were very well cared for it and not given up by choice.
I saw them Liz, I CRIED! Last night was NOT a good night. I was feeling really sorry for myself. Code Enforcement came to the house this morning and Mike said that the first thing out of the guys mouth was, "WOW!" He won't be coming back. :D
Now we just have to sweat out AC coming on the 8th.
Baby leaves on Sunday. :( I still hate all of this. On a positive note, Shawna has come a little bit back out of her shell.
Liz, are we still a go? I was thinking the McDonalds on Crawfordsville Road at 74. I still have to call Kathy and set that part up, but it seems reasonable. The restaurant is almost right at the intersection of High School Road and Crawfordsville Road.
Molly if you ever need to me to call and check on anyone, just ask i have free LD.Quote:

McDonalds. Thanks for including the intersecting roads, that helps. (I always get lost on the west side of town) :rolleyes:
It's good to hear that Shawna is doing better.:) :) See ya all
later. [[[HUGS]]] Liz & Smokey.
I will double check and let you know and please be prepared for lots of tears. This is going to suck.
Molly, I'm glad to hear that Max has a new home & the code enforcement guy came & won't be coming back. This is good news.:)
I'm sorry I haven't replied much, but everytime I see one of your posts it makes me want to cry & I don't know what to say. Just know I'm always thinking of you & your family.
Here's a few more {{{HUGS}}}
Anna
Molly, I feel much like Anna_66... want to say more but get so upset and angry about this situation I'm afraid to start talking and get into a rant - which wouldn't help anything. I've told so many people about you and Mike and this situation and everyone agrees how just horribly appalling it is. And what Saints you two have been for so long. We all thank you.
Laurie
I feel the same damn way!! arrggh!!! :mad: :( It is not fair. :(
I feel so helpless.
So many more hugs.....
Ditto!Quote:

This is really bad news for you.:( I cant believe someone would do that. We might loose our 1 puppy because my dad and my dog dont like him. I am sad on looseing one I cant imagine 10! My prayers are with you and I hope you can pull through this tragice time:( :mad: :eek:
Molly and Mike,
I know this isn't much...but if you come to Findlay Park on the 31st, I've got a 5,000 BTU air conditioner I'd like to donate that I'll put in my car. I will also start working on the some of the pet stores around here to see if they will be willing to donate damaged bags of pet food, cat litter, etc.
I want to help you guys anyway I can. I just got through reading all of the posts and I can't see cuz my eyes are welling up.
Please know that I'm thinking about you guys and praying all the dogs get great homes.
I miss you!!
((((((((hugs))))))))))
Donna,
That is the nicest thing you have offered to do ........... {{tears}} What a caring person you are.
HUGS to you ............. and to Molly and Mike
I'm just heatbroken for you, Molly and Mike. Your grief must be unbearable. Like Anna, I find it almost impossible to post regularly on this thread for the tears and saddness. I want to help you in some way. I wish I were closer. I have 2 ac's you could have:( All I can say is that you and the pups are always in my heart and prayers.
You guys are so great. I had to take my mom to the ER because her dog bit her tonight and it turned into a 5 hour ordeal because they were busy and I still had to come home and feed the crew and was feeling pretty mean. I sat down and read the new posts and I started crying because you guys are just so generous. Thank you all. Let me talk to Mike and see what he wants to do about the air conditioners. I don't think the stupid, slum lord owner of the building will let us put anymore holes in the walls and there are no windows, unfortunately. This is such an incredibly BAD choice of buildings, you just can't know.
Thats a great idea moosmom about the
damaged bags of pet food etc.
My friend is a member of an Akita club in Texas. Her and other members drive around to the different stores and collect bags of food every month, and than donate it to the rescues.
Molly I am so glad the Code Enforcement came and left
with-out a hitch, but I am very sorry to hear about
your mother. (when it rains it pours) :(
I don't know about your slum lord.
Doesn't sound very good.
You did a fantastic job, on your babies so they can be placed in
loving homes. I also do not know what to say. I feel so bad,
I just can not imagine what you are going through.
l am sending you more hugs.
(((.u.)))Karen
Now we have to close the shelter. We are going to continue to have fosters, but we have until Monday to get them all placed or they go to Animal Control. I think we have about 5 taken care of now and that leaves 5 more. Someone emailed me last night about Blackie, so he may go home. Keep your fingers crossed. D-O-G is now in a foster home. I guess the SPCA is going to take a couple of them, but Tammy hasn't called me back as of yet. I have a call into Rosie at South Side Animal Shelter in Indy because when she called and told me that Max had been adopted she asked about us still needed to place dogs from the shelter, so maybe she could take one and we could take it down on Sunday when we take Baby (which I talked to Louanne, her new Mom, yesterday also and she is very excited about getting her). The reasoning is this: we do not have adequate ventilation in the building (which truly is a lousy building) and the county is going to come in and shut us down. Calvin bought us the weekend because they wanted to come out today and he said that wasn't possible, so they relented and are coming Monday. Well, gotta go, class is starting. Donations will still be accepted too because we are NOT closing down, we are keeping the dogs in foster care and keeping the website going and any money we get goes to the building fund, since we are getting out of the building before the 1st. Thank you all for your support through this roller coaster ride and generous donations.
I read these posts everyday, and I have yet to post because it hurts. I can't even start to imagine how much it hurts you.
May God bless you, and keep you strong!
You really are an Angel!!!
This is so incredibly heartbreaking! You and Mike are so very strong in your convictions! Anyone else would break and crumble and give up. Bless you two for fighting the fight for the love of animals. I hope a miracle happens for the shelter and you. Big time hugs being sent your way. Every day, I think of you and pray for a good solution.
Oh happy day!! The SPCA took 8 of the 10 dogs and a place called Dogtown in Middlebury, IN will take the remaining 2 (Rose and Nyla). They will all be safe. We are going to step back and regroup and are going to solicite donations and look for funding, get a building lined up and rename the corporation. So, anyone who wants to donate time or money please let us know. I am aiming for 6 months to a year to having a facility and taking animals again.
Problem. :( Nyla now has no place to go. The guy that is taking Rose and D.O.G. won't take her because she is a pitbull. Now we need to find her a home or foster ASAP.
Everyone is safe. Nyla got adopted in the 12th hour yesterday.
Baby leaves today.:( :( :( I have been crying all morning. This should end the ordeal, but I'm not holding out a lot of hope.:(
Congrats to Nayla...what a relief!!!
Have a safe trip, Baby. Enjoy your new home!!!
Postive thoughts and {{{HUGS}}}, Molly. May this be the end of the bad, and fresh start to the shelter.
