    Maybe you could make more efforts to transport them out of the area, or get them online for adoption in other areas. I don't know if truckers come by but there is a website where truckers run trains for homeless dogs. If I ever had the money I would come to areas like yours myself and bring dogs back to where I live and the chances of them being adopted would be much greater. I had wanted to start doing this with my sister in TN but she had to move back here.

    lizbud, I'm not giving up. I just don't know what else to do. I'll try and get in contact with the state rep again.

    IRescue542, I wish there were more people like you that are willing to help bring in strays from other areas. I hope you someday get to help homeless dogs.

    Can you start your own non-profit, private adoption group? Or can you work in conjunction with one? Like, start your own chapter? That is very sad; I had a hard time making it through the entire roll of pictures

    I would like to work with another rescue...I've talked to a couple rescues around me. Asking if they could put up courtesy posts on petfinder. I got one rescue in Evansville to do it back when I had Trudy a couple years ago. I've not had any success since hardly any of the dogs I get in town are purebred. Everyone only wants to help purebred dogs. I haven't tried in a while...I may ask a few again.

    Yeah, if most of the dogs you have in the area are purebred, I think the process of becoming a chapter organization would be simplified. For example, I know Greyhound adoption groups tend to have national heads and subsequent regional chapters. Hmm...that's tough. Could you talk to the director of the local no-kill and ask if you can become a branch with them? I know our local, private SPCA has a branch in the next county over, and they share the same website and stuff. I have no idea; good luck! I never knew it was so bad over there
