**PLEASE CROSSPOST WIDELY**
Leave no one behind!
Closing TN Shelter still needs your help!
 
A most sincere thank you to all who have helped almost 140 dogs out of this shelter to safety through posting, transporting, adopting, and rescuing.  The remaining lovely and very adoptable doggies need your help. 
 
The situation at this shelter is heartbreaking.  With its closing, the Commissioners lose a loving director and the needy cats and dogs of Monroe County are left, quite literally, with no safety net--no place to go..  The Monroe County Commissioners say they will not fund a Shelter.  Director Laurie has no choice but to step aside, as she can no longer fund this shelter from her pocketbook.
 
Please help home these animals if you are able.  The coming situation will no doubt require our serious attention to assure the safety of these wonderful animals in the future.  We are their voice, and their only hope.
 
In the meantime, let's home these remaining few dogs and leave no one behind!
 
Transport help is available.
 
1..    Tabi, a large adult female collie mix.  This is a beautiful dog. She has a wonderful disposition and gets along well with other dogs. She is very friendly and would make a great companion. Beautiful brindle and white markings. Gorgeous Collie face. This dog is predominantly Collie. http://www.petfinder.com/pet.cgi?action=2&pet=2143789
 
2.    Sheba, a large young female labrador retriever mix.  Found at the dump....very pretty puppy. Playful and good natured. Desperately needs a loving forever home!!  http://www.petfinder.com/pet.cgi?action=2&pet=3293481
 
3.    Gucci, a small adult male cocker spaniel.  This beautiful dog was found dumped in the Wal-Mart parking lot and was starving to death and his long hair was terribly matted. He weighed 17 lbs at the vet and was tested for HW (negative), given a 6 month HW prevention shot, neutered and received all shots and was groomed. He is black with white markings. His hair was matted and had to be shaved. He has very long hair when grown out. He is between 5 and 6 years old and in good health. He is recently fully vetted. He is on antibiotics for a scraped nose. He is housetrained, gets along well with cats and dogs. He walks very well on a leash...is very well behaved in the house and is a very quiet and calm dog. We must recoup our recent vet bills for this dog so we are asking an adoption fee. Our vet bills are 250.00 and we are only asking 100.00 adoption fee.
