I don't know the city...but the area code is Ohio..one of the worst places to be if you are a dog needing the home.  I am not sure where Angela lives...she is the step daughter and doesn't stop crying.   She said the dog is really a sweetheart and the guy will leave her out in the cold... He wants to put her to sleep.

 

I told her rescue people would be contacting her directly... I gave her your names, so she would know you are heavy hitters in rescue and not just curiosity emails.  She is really pleading for help.  Sorry, I didn't notice that she had not included the city and state until I sent it.  One more thing...she said she listed she would transport to MI., but she wrote and said she meant Indiana. 

She is scared...so I guess it is to be expected. 

 

Thanks for anything you can do on this....she is so hopeful someone can help.

Okay, guys...there is nothing I can do to help with this...but this girl is crying non stop and desperately worried about this dog that she loves.

 

This dog is in imminent danger... I have included all of her emails...to my questions.....and I have assured her that I have put it out there for all of the 'heavy hitters' who know how to get things done.  Please work a miracle for this dog...she is apparently really a sweetheart...this picture with her cleaning is NOT her cleaning her puppies...she is spayed...this is her cleaning kittens.

Please someone help this girl.....she will help with transporting and I know there are others who would as well...myself included if the dog comes this way. 

(Photos are attached and the emails from Angela are under the dogs description. Please do your best...this girl is pleading with everything she has.) This is not her dog...she is a relative. Please contact Angela directly...if you need anything from me...please let me know. Gloria

If I could take her she would be here right now.  I can't have her and I'm writing everyone, because she is going to be put to sleep in a  matter of days if I can't find somewhere for her to go.  I love this dog with all my heart and I've been crying all night about her. 

 

Thank you for any help to save her.  I really appreciate it.

Angela

Those are not puppies as everyone thinks, those are kittens!  She has Been spayed for a long time...including in that picture.  She is at immediate risk of being left outside in the weather and being put down...this is really an urgent case!!

Hello,

Merry Christmas!!  My name is Marcia, I'm located in Homestead, Fl and I have seen a German Shepherd for the second time roaming around.  I have stopped both times and have fed her, I swear she is more interested in being loved than in eating.  If you know of anyone that is interested in taking in a gorgeous German Shepherd, who is friendly and loving and looking for a family to give her love to this Christmas please call me (305) 505-2446.  I will drive any distance to take her to a good home and will pay for any shots she may need. 

God bless and lets try to get this beautiful German Shepherd a good home this Christmas.

Thank you and God Bless,

Marcia

There are cats there who roam also and I feed them daily at the same place; the German Shepherd roams with them.  When I get there the cats run away but the dog stays.  I strongly believe they have a great relationship.
She is a keeper.

 My husband and I are members of an incredible web forum: http://www.germanshepherds.com/

I think every GSD rescue in the country belongs to it.  They have a forum on Urgent Rescue and I just want you to know that both the male GSD #3722 and the female #3657 are listed there and people are scrambling to try to save them.  Someone is going over to temp test the male I hope they check the female as well.  I wish every breed had a group like this.  They jump on the rescues and manage to shoehorn another one in and they also take care of injured dogs.

When you get a GSD (unfortunately they only do purebred ones) if you can post in the Urgent forum someone may be able to save the dog.  They talked me into taking an old man who was going to die Wednesday and I sure didn't have room for another dog. LOL

Peace,
Jane

I'm looking for a foster home for my neighbor's German Shepherd. If you have room, could you please consider Ben? I know it's a really bad time of year to find a foster home. Ben lives here in St. Clair Shores and he is so kind and gentle.

hey, have you tried the adoption_assistance group on yahoo?  or some of the breed specific rescues?  there are several, and i'm sure they would be more than willing to lend a hand!  i know adoption_assistance is very good at arranging transport, and they are mostly on the east coast and mid-west.  and the german shepherd rescues would probably take him in a heartbeat as long as one of them has room.  give them
a try!  i'll pass it along on my end and see if i hear anything.  :) Rachell

Hi my name is Cesar the German Shepherd  A568608.  I am 8 years of age.  I am housebroken and the sweetest of all Shepherds.  I need a home that can help me get back to my original weight.  I am a little stressed with all the barking going on and no one walks me on my regular schedule.  I am completely house trained.  They say that they eyes are the window to the soul.  My eyes are calling for you to take me home so that I may live out my days laying by  the feet of a human companion.

Another Louisiana dog but what a beautiful GSD.  Any GSD rescue folks out there?

 

Does anyone know anyone that can save this dog...So sad for him to be left in the shelter..He was running at large on two ocassions and when he was found there was a dead poodle near him..There is no evidence that the dog had anything to do with the demise of the poodle..Because he was with picked up twice the shelter will not return him to his owner and now he needs rescue.....Please crossposts.......

Mrs. Wilson,

 

I am Jim McGrath, my wife and I work as volunteers at the Slidell Animal Shelter and we spoke to you last weekend in regards to a Shepherd.  However, at the time I was not aware there was another Shepherd in the Shelter needing to be rescued.  The Shelter staff had contacted a rescue group that informed it would be coming with a couple of days but has never showed up.  I thought they had.  Attached are pictures of Miles.  

 

I like the dog and have been working with him everyday this week.  I take him out of his kennel and let him run within the fenced compound at the shelter.  He obeys well and is not a problem to handle.  I have not tried to take him around small dogs nor would I try.  He plays well with me and loves to run.  My only problem with him is that he does not want to go back to his kennel after playtime.  I cannot say as I blame him.  As you can see by the pictures I took he is very beautiful  He just needs to be handled by someone that knows this breed and how to work with them.  Anything you can do to help would be appreciated.

Hi,
    I know of 3 shepherd-mix puppies that are in dire need of assistance.  They are about 6-8 months old and are currently strays.  There are 2 males and 1 female and look to be severely underweight.  I have emailed and called about 35 people trying to get anyone to take them in, ither permanently or to foster, but I am not having any luck.  I currently have 6 dogs and 3 cats of my own, most of which are “special needs” and as much as I have been trying to work it out, I just don't have the space or resources to take these puppies in.  I am however, willing to help in any other way I can if a safe place can be found for them.  I will be more than happy to catch them, take them to the vet and pay for their checkups and shots and even deliver them to their new place.

Is there anyway someone there can help these puppies?  Or suggest other people who I can contact about this matter?  As I said previously, I am more than willing to put in the time and effort to save these three puppies.  Any help or advice you can provide in this matter would be greatly appreciate both by me and the puppies!    

You can respond directly to this message or contact me at the following phone numbers:

Before Chrismas you folks posted about this pretty girl.  She is a
perfect example of a female GSD and was photographed wearing a red
bandanna.  You were impressed by her manners...you were right, she is
something special.

She was pulled by Shepherds to Love Rescue and here is her Petfinder
page.  http://snipurl.com/brc0  She has heartworms and was pregnant :(
but has been spayed and is being treated for her heartworms.  Thanks
to you and your promotion of her she has a chance at life and to be loved.

Correspondents and Liaisons Needed!

There are a myriad of positions available for many different agencies throughout the U.S. There is a great need for shelter workers and volunteers, liaisons, political activists, campaigners, publicists and press people, photographers, correspondents and, yes, transporters!

Most of these positions are not, in and of themselves, demanding. Of course, if you care about animals they can become very time consuming efforts, indeed, and we appreciate the vast and varied talents of those who are doing this work -- many out of the kindness of their hearts.

If you are interested in volunteering for this effort or others, we invite you to write us and let us know what you'd like to do, how often and how you like to work. We're sure to be able to find a match for you!

We thank God for each and every one of you who care enough to confront almost insurmountable odds to do everything you can to change this travesty in our world, often facing your own  humanity to do so, and putting your own emotions on the line to care for the voiceless among us: GODSPEED to each and every one...

Got Room?
