I am crossposting the following information in an effort to help the contact person (and especially the animal(s)) listed below. I know NOTHING about the following animal(s) other than what is stated below. If you are interested, contact person listed under CONTACT!    ---------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------    Sandusky ounty Dog Pound Fremont, OH  419-334-2372  Peanut #666 Chihuahua,Terrier Mix Size: Small Age: Senior Sex: Female Notes: This is a special needs adoption. Peanut is an owner turn in, her owner is expecting a baby and said that this girl is too possessive of her. Poor Peanut is miserable in her cage at the pound and is very frightened. This is causing her to growl at everybody until she gets to know them well, and this isn't helping her to get adopted. Her days might be short here if the pound fills up again as it has been doing. Peanut is about twelve to fifteen pounds and looks well cared for, she is a little bit older but in good condition and probably has many good years ahead of her. Are you the loving person who can calm her fears and give her the home she deserves? $54 for license, spay, first vaccine and microchip.

Samantha & Baby SA
Beagle,Labrador Retriever Mix

Size: Medium
Age: Senior
Sex: Female
Notes: This is a very sad case. These two dogs (I am guessing at their breed mix, I really don't know for sure) are both medium sized dogs at about forty and forty five pounds. Samantha is the thinner one, she is seven years old. Sweet little Baby is heavier at forty five to fifty pounds (she could use a weight loss program) and she is ten years old. Their owner brought them in. They seem like such nice girls, it just breaks your heart to see them end up here at their age. They will not have long, the pound has been filling up and owner surrenders are the first to be euthanised. Can you help them? $54 for license, spay, microchip, and vaccination. Hurry to see them!

Buddy-Very Sad!
Sheep Dog,Terrier Mix

Size: Medium
Age: Senior
Sex: MaleNotes: Buddy ended up here in the dog pound because his owner passed away. As if that isn't hard enough for a ten year old dog to handle, he is now in dire need of a new home or he won't have long to live either. He is about forty pounds and he does not like children, he will need an adult only home. Please come visit him and save his life! $54 buys license, neuter if not done, vaccine and microchip.

                        MEET Claudia!

                        Labrador Retriever Mix

                          Size: Medium
                          Age: Adult
                          Sex: Female
                          I.D: 195

                        Notes: Hiya!  I'm Claudia, what's your name? I'm a sweet 3 year-old Black Lab mix looking for a loving home to call my own. I've had a very terrifying past; I was living in a sump! Now I am very shy with strangers and am wary of being handled. However, I warm up quite nicely when you give me love and attention! I'm a mellow gal who loves to give kisses and run and play. I have so much fun hiding my treats in the ground. I like to bury them with my nose, it's oh so cute!

                        I passed my behavioral screening with flying colors. I'm an obedient little girl who know my commands very well and am so eager to please. I'm very dominant with other dogs so if you have a pooch you would have to bring him/her down to meet me first. At the end of the day I enjoy curling up into a ball on my blankie. I'm in desperate need of a quiet home and a family who can reassure me with a lot of love and devotion. You could be that special family for me.

                        Please come down and see what a gentle and playful girl I really am! I've been caged for so long, I just want to be free. Just look into my chocolaty soulful eyes and your heart will melt.

There are four Lab puppies at the Holmes County, Ohio, pound who are in immediate danger of being gassed.  The pound is full, and they could be gassed as soon as Wednesday of this week.  All are very sweet pups - two female Yellow Labs, and two Labs possibly mixed with Border Collie.

 

Their write-ups are as follows:

 

"Lavern is a great little lab mix that was found as a stray along with her sister Shirley. They both have good dispositions and seem to like human attention. They are about 4 months old and are in Cage # 7 at the Holmes County Dog Pound. Please give these gals a new loving home! Living at the pound is not a place for such sweet girls. Time is of the essence, so please contact the shelter today!"

CLICK HERE FOR THE PETFINDER LINK

 

"Prudence and Stacy are very sweet yellow lab mixes that are most likely sisters. They are about 4 months old and were found as strays. They are a little shy and scared to be in the pound but are still very good gals. Both would make excellent pets as they are very calm and quiet. Please contact the Holmes County Dog Pound immediately to adopt one or both of these gals. Their time is limited due to space! Hurry, they are waiting for you in Cage # 4!"

The Labs' photos are attached below in the order of their write-ups above.  If you can help any of these dogs, please contact the Holmes County Dog Warden immediately at:  (330) 674-6301.

 

Someone is available to pull.  Please write to documentdesign@yahoo.com for information on pulling, if you are not located in Ohio or near the pound.

Please crosspost.

 

There are also many other dogs who urgently need to be rescued at this pound, so please take a look at all of the dogs using the link above.  Thank you.

 

RESCUE NOTES: I live near Tulsa,OK. We have rescued 2 yellow lab/mix pups (now approx. 6 months old) and 1 black lab/mix pup (now about 11 months  old). 

They were full of mange, worms and extremely emaciated when we  found them at our pond.  They are beautiful now. All their hair has  grown back and the yellow female has been spayed. They have all their  shots and are on heartworm preventative. They are crate trained and  well-behaved, but because of their boundless energy love being  outside. The black lab can scale a 4 and 5 foot fence easily, but he  just runs to the house because he wants to be around people.  It was not my intention to keep these sweeties because I already have  3 other dogs and people have literally dumped 6 stray cats on us (3  of which were too far pregnant to have spayed) so now there are also  19 kittens I need to find good homes for...

I have been fortunate  enough to find an organization that will help me care for these  cats... spaying, shots, etc. but I cannot find anyone to help me find  these sweet dogs a home.  If anyone is interested, please contact me  at noahsrv@yahoo.com. I have before and after pics of them as well as  their veterinarian records.

 

 

We are requesting help getting puppy mill goldens to the safety of rescue.
The dogs have been released by the mill and are at a half way house until
transport.  We need to try to move them as soon as possible as there are
about 12 goldens in need all together.  The half way house can only pull so
many at a time due to space limitations.  I do not have the ages or sexes of
these dogs yet but will call the lady and try to find out which ones she has
to get out first.  Since these were breeding stock most of them are females
but there are a couple of males.  The ages for the entire group range from
about 2 to 7 years of age.

I am on digest on most of the lists so please send me a note to
wlragan@iland.net if
you can help.  As always we are flexible so please let us know even if you
can only drive part of a leg.  Please crosspost and forward to anyone who
might be in the area.

Thanks in advance.

 Good with other dogs - Yes
 Cats - Yes

 from the garage, perhaps)

Hershey

Labrador Retriever Mix

Size: Medium
Age: Baby
Sex: Male
I.D:

Notes: Hershey was thrown into a plastic trash bag and placed in a dumpster with two other siblings. Unfortunately the two siblings died a horrible death before someone found them. A good samaritan heard crying coming from the dumpster. She opened the bag and found the three pups. Hershey and his siblings were only 5 weeks old when they were thrown away as worthless trash. Hershey is now in foster care and is under medical supervision. He is thriving now and is a wonderful, loving, and playful puppy. He will be available as soon as he has his two puppy shots and the doctors dismiss him for adoption. IF YOU CANNOT ADOPT HERSHEY, PERHAPS YOU CAN MAKE A DONATION FOR HIS CARE. CHECKS OR MONEY ORDERS MADE TO STARS IS TAX DEDUCTIBLE. YOUR DONATIONS SHOULD BE MAILED TO SAVE THE ANIMALS RESCUE SOCIETY, INC., P.O. BOX 212136, AUGUSTA, GA. 30907, ATTEN: SPONSOR HERSHEY

If interested in adoption of this pup, please contact STARS (Save The Animals Rescue) in Augusta GA at 706 860 8677

Yellow Labrador Retriever with 10 little babies needs a foster home badly,  she was left by her owner in Texarkana, AR and was taken in by a very kind neighbor, who doesn't have the room to keep her. Please try to help this poor girl, if you know of a foster home or no-kill rescue that is still able to take her. I put a picture of the family into the photos here. Cat Beasley Pets-Haven, AR

 

Hi everyone:

 

Lab Rescue of LRCP has 7-8 dogs in boarding situations in Richmond, VA - but we need to get them to Fairfax so they're available for foster homes and potential adopters as well as closer proximity to adoption days.  All are healthy and vetted, most, if not all are altered. ALL info will be provided to any driver who volunteers, but would be silly to list all the dogs here right now, since we can't move  them all at once.
 
What I need is people who are willing to help transport from Richmond to Fairfax, or even Fredericksburg - dates and times are extremely flexible, please let me know what works for you. Even if you can just drive one - we need to get them up here!  
 
Va is huge, and we get these dogs in from all over, they seem to get to certain areas and then sit and wait. Please help us find them forever homes by getting them to a more accessible location!
 
Contact me any time for additional info, as I said - any drivers will be given specific info on which dogs they will be bringing.
Thanks!!!

I am looking for a person that loves dogs to take my dog, she is a
Labrador very lovable and playful, Since my wife and I  had a baby we
don't give her enough attention anymore, we are looking for a good
house for her. She loves to swim and hunt!

PLEASE CROSSPOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MY NAME IS COLLEEN AND I AM A VOLUNTEER AT THE NORTHWEST PA HUMANE SOCIETY.  WE CURRETNLY HAVE 2 BLACK LABS THAT NEED RESCUED.  I CAN  HELP WITH TRANSPOTING THEM IF THAT IS NECESSARY.  THEY HAVE NOT BEEN  POSTED ON PETFINDER OR ON THEIR CURRENT WEBSITE.  

LUCKY- 8YR, M/N,  VERY ENERGERIC, BIG, AND LOVABLE!  KNOWS SIT-STAY- SHAKE.  HE NEEDS A STRONG OWNER WITH A FENCED IN YARD OR ALOT OF  LAND,  HE LIKES TO CHASE BIKES, CARS,CATS.   LOVES KIDS BUT HE CAN  OVERWELM THEM, GREAT PERSONALITY!!! HE HAS BEEN IN THREE SHELTERS  AND THREE HOMES.  

CAPTAIN - 3YR, M/N, LOVES BEING IN THE WATER ALL THE TIME.  VERY  PLAYFUL AND STRONG,  LISTENS TO COMMANDS AND PREFERS OLDER MATURE  PEOPLE.      

I hope these pictures comes through because these are some beautiful
dogs.  The K-6 lab is at the pound and will be put down very soon. 
Very sweet dog.  Looks to be purebred.  The others are at Maria's and
we have been unable to adopt them out in this area.  We are hoping
that a rescue in another area will take them and get them into
forever homes.  They have been at Maria's a long time.  Lab's in this
area are a dime a dozen.  These are very sweet dogs and they deserve
a chance at a loving forever home.
 
If any of you can help out by taking one or two ( or three   ) and
help get them into forever homes we would really appreciate it  and
so would the dogs.  I know everyone is swamped but we are keeping our fingers crossed that there will be a few openings somewhere out there  or possibly someone already knows of an approved home.  We can always  dream.
 
If you know of someone that can help, please have them email Maria at  causeforpaws7308@yahoo.com or call her at 931 722-4156.

Correspondents Advocates 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...
