I found the dogs when I was within a couple of miles of my house in the little obsolete town of Winnesoga, Mississippi. The mom and pups were within a block of a railroad crossing there. I rousted two local households and was told that the dog was a stray and been being fed with table scraps. Upon enquiry I was told that the animal shelter had been called, but the people were told that the shelter did not go into the county outside of the city limits. The sheriff's office was called, and the people were told to call the animal shelter.
Our local shelter is called the Corinth Alcorn County Humane Society. Their website is www.cachs.com.
There has been a turnover in management at the shelter, and the reports I receive are not good. Of course, this is heresay only. The previous management did an excellent job of tracking down calls and complaints, and adopted animals out all over the country, but I am getting reports from local vets and their technicians that the current shelter management is actually adopting out animals that have not been properly screened (shots/neuter, etc). This could be wrong information. I hope so.
I have personally delivered scores if not a few hundred animals to this shelter and have always had good cooperation in the past. I have not dealt with the current administration so I may be completely wrong about them. They haven't met me yet, but I suspect that they will soon.
