In case someone can help

[ramanth]

It's fast approaching Noon EST here which means in a few hours it will be Noon in Texas.

Any news!?

[Sudilar]

Nooooo! Not yet. (fear!!) Someone on the GSD bb is trying to save him, too, now, because time is running out and we don't know if he is being pulled out or not. She lives in Oregon, however. We don't know if these efforts are working or not. I'll let you know if I hear anything on the GSD bb. Prayers, please.

For sure Sue!! I won't let up on the prayers!! We need a miracle here! Hang in there precious one.

[aly]

They don't open until 11:30 so I can't go get him until then. I haven't heard back from the GSD rescues.

[Sudilar]

Thank you, aly, for all your efforts!!! A rescue in Austin is also being contacted by the GSD bb. Hopefully Tammy can do something, too. This is toooo scary!

[Sudilar]

ALY, I pm'd you with some info.....

[sammi]

Aly, Just say that if you get the GSD out - would it be possible to board him someplace for awhile (I would send some $$ to help out)? I realize you have enough going on with out trying to board another dog at the moment.

[Sudilar]

Aly, there is an interested party on the GSD bb. Is he good with dogs, cats and livestock?? She's in Oregon.


One area GSD rescue did not pick up two dogs from Harris like they said they would and now the dogs are being killed today, too. There is also one in Montgomery. The rescue contact (Tammy) would love to help, but can't.

The shelter just called me and left a message because I couldn't get to the phone fast enough and I called back and she said that someone had come in to rescue him so Sam is safe. She did, however, point out that people "get miopic" about dogs and she just HAD to say that 20 dogs had died this morning and 20 more are set to die tomorrow. She said they have about 300 dogs there right now.

Anyway, the good news is Sam was rescued today.

[aly]

Sue,

I'm really really sorry. I got there at 11:30 and looked for him everywhere. I gave the people his animal number and they told me his cage # but he wasn't there. I'm sorry. I wish I had known even a day earlier. I hope someone came to get him. I really really hope so.

I feel so guilty. I'm sorry

[aly]

Oh thank God!

I couldn't stop crying thinking it was my fault he died. I'm so glad someone got him. They must've been walking out with him right when i was walking around all the hundreds of cages.

All the sad faces are haunting me. I am seriously considering going to bust one out of there. I can't stand it.

[DoggiesAreTheBest]

Aly, don't blame yourself! Sam is safe. Molly just verified that!
I cannot believe that 20 died today. It breaks my heart!

What has the world come to?! Those pups are now not suffering and feeling neglected and abandoned. May they all Rest In Peace!

[aly]

They have 3 full time staff at that shelter who do nothing all day but put animals to sleep.

I was trying to find this little guy but didn't see him. I wonder if I should go back and ask??

[Sudilar]

What can I say??

Mugsy, they told you he was rescued???? Oh, happy day!! Aly, if he wasn't in the cage, then can we believe that they told mugsy the truth? I would like to believe that. Yes, Souraya, they do kill that many, sad to say. At our kill shelter (Killi and Shi's), Thursday is kill day.

I need to take a break right now. I've been on here back and forth all morning and I think my heart can't take it anymore. I will look for someone on the GSD bb for verification. Maybe one of the rescue groups came through.

You don't know how greatful I am for aly, mugsy and souraya for trying to aid in saving this poor unfortunate dog. I hope he has found a new forever home. Big hugs to you guys. My heart goes out to you. You are the BEST. Also thanks to all who prayed for the dog, too.

Sue

I sincerely hope that woman told Molly the truth and that Sam is safe.

So very sad that so many lost their lives today..

Aly... that little poodles face made my heart break.
