Local Shelter Closing!*animals need your help!*

I wish I could help them. That is so horrible. I hope they all find good homes soon.

Poor babies, I hate when shelters close. This is so sad! I wish them luck, and can you please keep us updated?

I don't know how much time they have. I know my brother came home from school yesterday and told me his class was taking in donations to maybe help keep them open. The animals need out.

I use to volunteer for this shelter. I only did it a few times because the lady that ran it was rude and griped about how I did everything wrong. I also offered 2 full 50lb bags of food and she refused because she said they buy their own dog food. No need for "the crap strangers bring in." I belive this lady means well, but can't hold on to volunteers because she treats them all horrible. Can't adopt and dogs because she does NO advertising. There is also no sign in front of the shelter. So many people I talk to don't even know it exists. Most of the dogs there have been there since they opened in 2001.

I'll keep you on the update.

I've belonged to this forum for ages, but rarely post.

Is this true about this shelter? I contacted an acquaintance who belongs to rescue groups, and she said she didn't hear of this. She said there was a "urban" legend about this couple years ago.

Would like to know, as I and she could probably network/rescue and maybe help these dogs. The number does come back to a Pike County, IN site, but nothing about the circumstances is mentioned.
