Casseysmom- our shelter knows too. The manager quit because of the ruling- I just wanted to say the breed clubs did not even attend the state wide announced hearing on the banning of breeds- making keeping them for adoption at a shelter illegal. It just makes me sick.
For a while- some of us were going down there pretending to be the owners sending in cousins etc from outside the area. After awhile they caught on to this and we had to totally discrib the dog to even see them.
I wish they could have a law like this where PTS is outlawed. For years here, there was woman that ran a no kill shelter. It was an unspoken fact to get the adoptions from her, so she could make room to get from the shelters to keep the dogs at least moving. However- she died last year. The shelter is now run by a trust fund she set up while she was alive, and of course- private donations.
I watch the shows about Houston animal shelters etc. And some of those shows at least they say " since this breed is illegl in this county, the dog will be take to a rescue shelter to be adopted outside the county." On the next show they say " since no rescue was able to take the dogs, they were humanly euthenized." .. .. Doesnt this make you sad? It does me also madder than a wet hen...
