UPDATE: Time is of the essence!! Please Help Gracie Belle Stay with Her Loving Family

 UPDATE: This family received an eviction notice and must be out of the apartment in 72 hours. 
Please Help Me Keep 
My Dog Gracie Belle
About me: I am a single mother on disability with a limited income currently living in Dallas, Texas where I have zero support. I am moving out-of-state on September 12th so that my 3-year old son can live closer to his father and I will have some support. I will be staying with friends temporarily until I can afford my own place. I am unable to take my dog Gracie Belle to where I will be staying because they already have their own dogs. I am desperately trying to figure out a way to keep my dog so that I do not have to give her away.

CHIP IN: I have set up an account for Gracie Belle so contributions can be made.

Please help change this sad story to a happy one for little Chip, a paralyzed, almost forgotten doxie.

Chip has the saddest face and eyes I've ever seen. They speak volumes and tell the story of a life that has been very heartbreaking. He is not demanding, he is grateful, he wants nothing more than LOVE.

CHIP'S STORY: Chip is six years old but I don't believe there was any time that life was easy for him, even before he became paralyzed. His life in a home with a family did not last long because when he fell off the couch and became paralyzed, his family did not want to keep him.  He was posted on Craig's list and quickly found another home - but that home also was short lived.  In only a few weeks he was posted on Craigs List again because his care was more than this person had bargained for.  And, so Chip was picked up by a rescue from North Carolina and placed in what they believed to be a great foster home in Queens, NY.  The person who fostered
Chip collected money monthly from the rescue for his care....he was a paycheck.  Little love or caring was provided.  Details about his existence would only break your heart- so, we will only post the obvious;
1.  Chip was never vaccinated in the two years he spent with ...

Yonkers, NY: Prince needs rescue by Sunday 9/11, surrendered because owner is terminally ill.

PLEASE HELP THIS FRIGHTENED BOY FIND A NEW HOME.*From Leslie: Would you consider helping a cocker from NY? he is 2 years old and was surrendered because of a terminally ill owner...he will be pts on Sunday unless I find a rescue...the shelter is very crowded and the dog is terrified...he is definitely getting better than he was 3 weeks ago and He has  always been dog friendly. He is cage aggressive, probably because he is afraid. He is walked by a staff member who has no problem at all, he is ok with dogs. He never bit anyone. He is definitely getting better, but the shelter is so crowded, they can't keep dogs who have any issues. Thanks Leslie McCauley. Yonkers shelter

L.A., CA shelter-LAST CALL FOR JOYOUS HATTIE! video below of the happiest dog ever

WHO IS SHE? HAPPY HATTIE Hattie  (A1239684, just a year old, 52 pounds) is as happy as they come.  The only problem is -- she's in ISO with URI!  Hattie is actually 90% lab  --  though her photos here just don't show it  (black dogs are so difficult to capture).  She's the physical fitness queen at the shelter, begging for someone to run with her, to take her to the beach so she can chase the waves.  She hasn't hit the gym yet but, with her HIGH energy level, she'd be up for trying.  Originally kenneled with another dog, Hattie is now alone.  She wants to PLAY, is a bit dominant, but can take other dogs jumping on her as well without flinching.  Hattie would do well with some etiquette training, no doubt.  Don't let this dynamic girl die.  Visit her at the shelter and see if you aren't bowled over by Hattie.  Here's her video :

WHERE IS SHE? South L.A. shelter  3612  11th Ave.  L.A.  90018
HOW CAN YOU HELP? Call shelter at (213) 485-0117 or -0119. Please let me know if you have questions  --  or better yet, adopt or rescue as people always...

*From Natalie: This shelter has no formal rescue program (as we are currently the only rescue that takes dogs from them on a regular basis....) and no screening for adopters (sadly) - you just pay the adoption fee for the dog ($35 and includes a DHLPP shot) and vet him/her yourself ----- our group has an existing relationship with a local Vet that you can contact, Paws and Claws Animal Clinic (304-763-0103).
No euthanization dates are provided for the dogs...but they are killed as the kennels fill up, and with any more dogs coming in, they will be gassed.  ANY help you can provide is greatly appreciated!
If you can help, please contact Erica (ericacollins1@yahoo.com) or Pam (pam@whiplashpro.com), volunteers in that area who can go to the shelter...
