FLORIDA: PRINCESSA NINA WAS THE WORLD TO HOMELESS MAN, LIVED UNDER BRIDGE

Beautiful shepherd!! Please share for this sweet baby!! Lived with homeless man under bridge and the owner is now dying !

Contact: Mirta 305 484 1349
Please someone take this baby ! She is spayed, clean, utd on vaccinations. Just needs a home!!  

*From K: Please save Nina. She lived together with her owner under a bridge, homeless but never separated. He is now in the hospital dying with his last wish and prayer is that Nina go to a loving home and not a shelter or worse. Please try to imagine what she is going through, no longer with her loyal companion any longer. We are begging someone out there to save her and give her a forever home where she will be able to go on without her best friend. Transport can always be done-tell everyone.
*From K: This girl is beautiful, and she has lived a hard life with a homeless man, but she was loyal and faithful to the end. Now he is in the hospital dying. After a lifetime of living the homeless life I hope and pray that someone
can see the hard times this beautiful German Shepherd, now shaved, has endured; I hope everyone sees her heartbreak and worry. This precious, intelligent girl doesn't need to go from one place to another place, here and there. She needs a steady forever home with someone who will be her loving companion. and who will let her sleep on the bed at night or next to it in her own comfortable bed. She needs someone who will be there for her, and just her. I know there are people out there with loving and compassionate hearts who are solid and 100% forever loyal. That is what this girl needs, and she needs it now. I know you see what I see, and our heart will be breaking for this girl until she gets the loving and comforting home that she needs and deserves.
Where is she now?

SPRINGFIELD MO - MISSING PITBULL, (FROM VILLALOBOS RESCUE) TV show

ANA IS STILL MISSING
So many of you followed her story, worried with us, cried with us, and sadly are still wondering with us. For those that don't know, Ana was one of the "UPS puppies" that was featured on our premiere episode this seas...on. She was adopted to a young man who was battling cancer. Sadly this past September, he and his wife split up and she took Ana with her. Though we don't know the specific details, this is what we do know. The wife fell onto hard times and bounced around from place to place and Ana was passed around to some of her friends to take care of. The husband relocated out of state for health reasons. Yes, it clearly states in our adoption contract that if you cannot take care of our dog, we will take him/her back no questions asked! At this point we don't know the what's, the why's or the where's but at some point, Ana "got away" from the wife and she did not tell us at the time of the incident. We had to hear it from family members and friends of their's. We thought we had a lead on her whereabouts but after numerous phone calls, looking at photos and doing our "investigating", we came up with nothing. At this point, we might be chasing an empty trail but we have to at least try. This all took place in late Sept/early Oct in the Springfield, MO area. If you found or have in your possession a dog that looks like Ana (unfortunately this puppy pic is all we have), please have her scanned as ALL of our dogs are microchipped to us. We have appealed to the news to let us do a story (no response), offered a HUGE reward.....so now we appeal to you. Please help us BRING ANA HOME.

Long Island, NY JAN 22 - STILL TRYING for Daisy - thrown out in the trash

Abused Kitty was found Inside a Plastic Garbage Bag IN A DUMPSTER!! Please help find her a home.

Long Island, NY
JAN 22 - STILL TRYING for Daisy
JAN 21 - Despite Her Horrific Ordeal, Daisy is a VERY, VERY SWEET Girl...
JAN 16 - NOT ONE OFFER!! NOT ENOUGH SHARES!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!
JAN 15 - Cat Thrown into DUMPSTER NEEDS a HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Original plea***Daisy*** Found in The Garbage DUMPSTER in a Plastic Bag
“The maintenance staff where Linda lives saw a man or couple putting Daisy in a black garbage bag, tying it and putting her in the dumpster. It turned out it was a cat that was being fed by an older couple and NO ONE is quite sure WHO put the cat in the dumpster…OR they aren’t telling!!! Maintenance took her OUT and a wonderful woman offered to foster her…unfortunately DAISY was badly bullied in that foster and HAD to be placed elsewhere…

She Likes to be petted on the head but then she will swat. Daisy does NOT like her back touched. Likely trust issues. She WAS abused! She does not like to be held or handled. She is quiet, not destructive, not aggressive. Eats well, good litter box manners. She likes to wander around the condo where she is but then will run back into her bedroom and jump on the bed. Loves looking out the window. My take is that she needs a quiet home....other cats are possible IF they are mellow, old, not alpha cats. Someone cat savvy with some experience who is not looking for a lap/mush cat right away and is willing to give a truly deserving kitty and unconditional HOME.” 

Finding DAISY a GOOD HOME is URGENT NOW…
She is five years old. Healthy and just had a dental.

14 Freezing Homeless Cats... woman evicted and forced to place cats outside in straw tents... help is desperately needed!
DEC 5 *From Saundra: Hi all: This is a colony of tame cats in Charlotte that are sweet and beautiful. I have been working to keep them fed in wet food since the lady in a 2 bedroom apartment got evicted and put them in straw tents behind the apartment and the cats keep trying to go back into to. The apartments are not Cat friendly and a picking them off, if you know what I mean. Many of them are long-haired and adoptable. I have been s/ning them as I can.......approx. 20 cats.
If any rescue want to adopt out the tame ones, great! There are a few older ones that might need to be euthanized? they are living on a small strip of land behind the apartment backed up to a parking lot where I am feeding them.
Below is just half of them.  -- Saundra

DEC 6 *From Melba: You are probably aware of the situation in South Charlotte where a lady was evicted, along with her 20 cats. Many of them are spay/neutered and current on shots. Many are beautiful, tame and long haired. There are numerous 3 month old kittens. They are living outside with some straw huts the lady erected. I'm trying to find out more. These kitties are cold, wet and suffering out there. My heart is heavy as I am only one person. I'm very overloaded and have had 3 horrible emergencies this weekend that have literally consumed every moment. I have not been off the computer except to sleep and that I was unable to do because of worry. I know I cannot save every cat. But, I try to do whatever I can.

I'm trying to decide whether to withdraw on this situation immediately, while I still can. OR, if you ladies will commit to the project of finding rescues/homes for them along with me. I cannot do this alone. I have a couple foster homes that will take cats. I have another lady who runs a petsitting business and has a doggie day care that has offered a bedroom in her home. If I take any cats into a foster, I will be stuck having to do all the work for vetting and finding homes. This would be no small task. As of right now, I have places where possibly 8 cats could go! BUT, I CANNOT DO IT ALONE. So, I'm asking if you are willing and can dedicate time to being a team on this project. Each person take a couple cats, focus on getting whatever they need and adopted out. I have sponsors and can raise more money if necessary, which I am good at. Money is not the issue.

Please take some time to consider this request. Honestly, if you do not wish to participate, there are no hard feelings. This is so disturbing as are many other situations in our community and state. It takes a village. Here are a couple photos of kitties in need. Thanks for your consideration .

Please contact Saundra --- Saundrahsnyder@aol.com
Or Melba ---- melbatarlton@yahoo.com
or Melissa ----- melissa4493@hotmail.com

Please cross post to folks who will help.
UPDATE: MELBA SAID SHE DID FIND SOMEONE TO HELP GET THE SMALL DOGHOUSES FOR TONIGHT. SO GOOD ON THAT NOW.

ALSO PER BELOW HAVE ABOUT 6 CATS WITH OFFERS. THAT LEAVES 14 MORE CATS NEEDING HELP!

Hampton Roads, VA-URGENT! FIVE CATS IN DIRE NEED OF REHOMING!


Five Cats need a home now.... deadline Jan 15 or they will be sadly taken to shelter *From Laura: Hi everyone! I don't send a lot of emails like this, but right now my partner's family is in an urgent state of need. My stepdad-in-law has been diagnosed with terminal cancer in his lungs and brain, where there are already over 30 tumors. He's fighting day to day to maintain his quality of life. He and my mother-in-law are struggling financially, as she's disabled and neither of them can work. 


There are currently 7 cats and a dog living in their small home, and because of both of their health, five of the cats must find new homes. This must occur by January 15, and unfortunately, those who have not found homes will be going to a shelter, where I believe it is unlikely for them to make it out alive. They are special cats with very special personalities, but will probably be looked right over at the shelter.

I am attaching the sad story of two of these cats, Emmy (black and white) and Runner (black), who ended up with my in-laws after their original guardian, a family friend, committed suicide. These I feel are the 2 most adoptable cats because of their sweet demeanors. Right now, a kind rescue group to take them in would be a wonderful solution for these babies!

The other kitties are as follows (photos attached):
-Murray - a black and white kitty who is very independent and a free thinker. He's not especially social with other cats but can live with them if necessary and will just do his own thing!  He can be a huge sweetheart when he wants to be. Prefers to be indoor/outdoor cat.
-Baby - a small tabby who is very docile and shy. She is scared of new people, but is so sweet when the right person takes the time to get to know her. Probably the sweetest little girl I've ever met. Indoor cat.
-Harley - black and white kitty, not good with other cats. He has a mind of his own and just wants someone to be "his person." He's mostly laid back and low maintenance. Indoor cat.

These cats will all be fixed, vaccinated, and had a basic exam before being sent on their way!

Even if you cannot take these kitties, PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO YOUR CONTACTS. Maybe we can find a few rescue groups to take them. These cats are located in Hampton Roads, Virginia, but I am willing to drive as far as it takes to get them to where they need to be (I love road trips!!!). Thank you all SO MUCH for any help in spreading the word.

INTERESTED ADOPTERS/GROUPS, please contact Laura Cascada at lauralee.wilson@live.com.

P.S. I've set up a donation page for my in-laws as well, and if you'd like to make a small donation, please indicate that it's for the kitties - I'll use it directly for their vet expenses. TO DONATE PLEASE CLICK HERE:http://www.gofundme.com/5v5rv4

THANK YOU AGAIN FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!

Advance, NC - elderly couple had to give up their senior kitties... please help




This is heart breaking. PLEASE CROSS POST Three beautiful, senior cats in need of fur-ever home(s) or rescue. Located in Advance, NC close to Winston-Salem. Contact is: Gerri at Village Way Kennel (336) 998-0263 or by cell at: (336) 671-8117.

There is no other family to help. Wife paid for boarding for one month when she went into the hospital. Sadly, she is going from the hospital to hospice. Because the husband is unable to physically care for the cats he came to the vets office to sign euthanasia papers.

Thankfully, the vet and staff were so touched by this gentleman, the story and the cats that they agreed to hold off with hope home(s), or rescue(s) can be found, but they can’t keep them much longer. Rebecca and Joseph have been there the longest and Noel, the last was recently brought in. They have adjusted well to being in a kennel, but it’s no life to live, especially for very long and the vets office just can’t keep them much longer. They need the kennel space for sick patients and boarders too. So, sadly if homes or foster/rescue(s) aren’t soon found they will be euthanized.

Adopted as kittens, these kids are spay/neutered and current on vaccines. Indoor only. They got along well with the couples dog and grandchildren. Super sweet and loving. 


Rebecca 10 yrs and 8 months old
Joseph 10 yrs and 8 months old
Noel 8 yrs and 11 months old

PLEASE, can anyone help any of these beautiful, well loved and cared for cats?  They do not have to stay together. We are all saying our prayers for the cats and the couple.

*Orlando, FL: Savannah on her own walking 100 miles - Urgent!!!

12-16-13 Savannah is safe with her owner who had been looking for her!

This is Savannah and hers is quite a story - she needs help NOW!
 
Orlando, FL - Dog walked 100 miles alone, owner in jail, she needs foster/home/rescue now!! - Savannah, senior Shep mix!! 
 
 
 
Please contact Chucky ASAP at: 407-739-2003!!  This poor girl needs a HOME to love her-=- she's precious just wants some TLC and love, that's IT!  If not a home, pls a rescue step up to help her ASAP!!!
 
 
 
 
 

She was found in my front yard on Black Friday. I took her to my vet and they found she was micro-chipped… Unfortunately, her owner never registered info on the micro-chip.  I was able to get the manufacturers number from the chip, and learned it was installed at The Marion County Animal Shelter (Ocala) in 2002.  I also was able to get her owners name and address.  I did a small background report, trying to find a working phone number for her owner, but had no luck.  I was able to get in touch with her owners’ parents, who are in their 90s.  Sadly, they haven’t heard from their daughter in years, and said they have no idea of how to find her.  I then had my mother help me out; she works for the City, and was able to pull a full background report… That is when we discovered that Savannah’s owner has been in jail since late October.  Based on the timeline and geographic scenario, this 11 year old girl has been surviving on her own for over a month, and has walked close to 100 miles.


I am an animal lover, and would love to be able to keep this sweet girl, but my family and I are not in a financial position to keep her at this time.  I also believe that our home is a little too chaotic for her; between my other 2 dogs (weighing in at 150 lbs combined), and my rambunctious 2 year old… I just don’t think she can get comfortable, or that she is getting the one on one love and attention that she deserves.

I have called 15+ rescues, and all have explained to me that they are either full, or that they only accept dogs off of death row.   I have also called no-kill shelters in Orange, Seminole, Brevard, Lake, and Marion counties to see if I can drop her off there.  I have been told that they do not accept strays, and can only take her if I claim her as a pet.  Claiming her as a pet would mean that I am claiming ownership of her for the past 90 days, and therefore taking responsibility for her current condition.  Since her current condition is less than fair (due to her extreme weigh loss), I could be fined and charge with animal neglect and have my other 2 dogs taken away. All the shelters I have call have suggested forfeiting her to animal control.  I really do not want to send her to animal control because their policy is to euthanize after 5 days.   
Additionally, I have called them and been informed that they have shortened their holding period to 3 days before euthanizing them, due to the large amount of animals they receive throughout the holiday months.

My goal in all of this is to find Savannah a loving and stable home.  I feel she would be best suited with either a person who is single, an old couple, or possibly someone with a disability.  She is very low maintenance, and prefers to be in a low-stress environment.
 
 
Here is some additional info about her:

• Female, Spayed
11 years old• Tall/thin – about 60 lbs
• Micro-chipped (can be registered under your name)
• No fleas
• House Broken
• Does not chew
• Does not get in the garbage
• Non-Food Aggressive
• Ok with other dogs & older children
• Ok with cats (at least the one who was roaming around my vets office when I took her there)
• Low activity required – Just lots of love and petting
 
If you are interested in helping this sweet girl out, or know anyone who may be, Please contact me ASAP at: 407-739-2003.
 

Thanks so much for all of your help and prayers for a forever home for Savannah.

Charlotte, NC: URGENT! "Macy" - Found In Survival Mode Living Under a Bridge



Importance: High
A picture speaks a thousand words....
Please share this story with anyone you know looking for an adorable little girl who has had a tough life.

"This girl has come a long way in her adjustment back into a loving home environment.

HOWEVER, when we first rescued "Macy"  in September... I absolutely had no room for her and nowhere for her to go....

I called my friend after pulling her from under the bridge, in the dark of night, and asked if she could take her for what we thought was only a couple of weeks....

My friend, graciously agreed to take her in for a couple of weeks (she really did not have room for her either)...well that was back in September.   She has been working with "Macy" and has done a fantastic job....BUT, my 2 week agreement is LONG PAST!  The situation has become URGENT....I have got to find a place for "Macy" to go! She can no longer stay with her present foster mom.

"Macy" will be an excellent companion / pet for a good loving home.  She has absolutely no aggression to her what-so-ever.  She is a little stand-offish when meeting new things, people, other dogs, etc, But, she comes around very nicely once she sees that she is not in danger.  She runs and plays with the other dogs and loves to see Mom and Dad coming home from work.   She is UTD on shots, spayed, micro-chipped....ALL done at personal expense of my friend, her present foster mom.

Can anyone take this girl into their Foster / Adoption Program?  OR Give her a "Forever" Home?

I am desperate to find a place for this great little girl..... PLEASE HELP! "

Booneville, NC Blue Heeler/Beagle being surrendered. Family moving north without him.

A VICTIM OF A FAMILY MOVING ON WITHOUT HIM. IT'S JUST NOT FAIR. 
Rascal is a YOUNG 6 yr old adult, male dog that is thought to be a Blue Heeler/Beagle mix. (He plays and acts like a puppy. He has a lot of love and life to give). Contact information below.

They have sold their home and are moving North and cannot keep him. I have met him. He is a very sweet dog. He is house trained, crate trained and adheres to a underground fence. He does fine with other dogs and is ok with cats. He is good with kids and loves women. He likes men too but has given on occasional delivery guy a hard time. 

He is neutered and UTD on vaccines and preventatives. He is on 4health dog food and seems pretty healthy from what I have seen. 

Would you know of anyone that could give this guy a home? The owner wants nothing more than to give him a forever home. But he needs to be moved pretty quickly. I am going to post to others so please let me know asap if you are interested.

Catawba County, NC-- STILL IN NEED--NOBODY HAS SHOWN INTEREST, 5 babies from cruelty/neglect home---need rescue placement

This will break your heart. These 5 poor little dogs have endured a life of misery. Please help rescue them asap, they only have one more day, no one has shown any interest yet.
Dogs taken from neglect/ cruelty situation…. All of these dogs came from the same residence. They need rescue placement by 11/19. Contact:JenniferSigmon@CatawbaCountyNC.gov

ROCCO:  A169257 - UNALTERED MALE , BLACK LABRADOR RETR MIX, 1Y 6M

Rocco and Tippy were in a dog lot that had no door or way into the pen. They were only being thrown food through the fence. They were not being fed regularly were skinny when we got them. They are very sweet but a little shy at first. Rocco weighs about 35-40 and Tippy weighs about 30-35.
TIPPY: A169259 - UNALTERED MALE , BLACK LABRADOR RETR MIX, 1Y 6M 


CRUCO:  A169260 - UNALTERED MALE , BROWN LABRADOR RETR and BEAGLE, 2Y
Cruco and Chico were in each tied out by ropes with no shelter. They are very skinny. They are shy at first meeting. Cruco is more shy than Chico. We do not believe there was a lot of interaction between the owners and the dogs on the property due to the lack of care. They were not being fed with any regularity. Cruco weighs about 30 and Tippy weighs about 30.

CHICO:  A169262 - UNALTERED MALE , BLACK LABRADOR RETR and BEAGLE, 4Y


 
MICKEY: A169261 - UNALTERED MALE , BLACK LABRADOR RETR and BEAGLE, 1Y

Poor Mickey was the worst of the bunch. He would not stand up and was extremely weak. When he got to the vet he had a temperature of 98.9 and weighed only 25 lbs. He was severely anemic. The vet stated that due to these factors that had we not stepped in, he would have not survived the night outside in the cold. He is making slow progress but is continuing to improve. He is good with other dogs. He is a quiet boy that will need time to recover from his physical neglect and emotional neglect. Poor thing acts as if he has not had any positive interactions with his “family”….basically laid at the end of a chain waiting on food. L

*Pensacola, FL: Out of Options and Totally On Our Knees!

11-21-13 She has a foster!
Precious stray will have to face the shelter tomorrow unless rescue steps up, please help us!! 

Beautiful, sweet girl, house trained, perfect with other dogs and loves people, Pitties are always the ones who get the raw deals although they are the best and sweetest dogs, and great companions and family members. Please help this girl before she goes to a kill shelter THROUGH NO FAULT OF HER OWN and gets killed. Please make contacts and help, we cannot live with this girl getting killed for lack of help.

CONTACT IS: Kelly Wieczorek kellyuf@gmail.com

Help, last chance!! I've posted before but am out of options. I found this sweet girl in my yard a few weeks ago, took her to the shelter, and then picked her up when she was going to be euthanized. I picked her up hoping someone could take her but everyone has backed out so far and I am running out of options. She is a pit, approximately 5 years old, very sweet, potty-trained, and knows a few tricks but I have an old little dog at home that has become very aggressive towards her and I don't trust them together. The pit just gives her kisses in response but I don't want my dog to push her, and we don't have the house or a fenced-in yard capable for such a dog.My husband has been working from home since last week to take care of her but leaves on a business trip Wednesday so if I don't find a home by tomorrow she will have to go back to the shelter. I did get her shots on Saturday but she tested slightly positive for heartworms. I am willing to help pay for the heartworm treatment if someone will take her in. Please help if you are able. kellyuf@gmail.com

OZONE PARK, QUEENS, NY: A desperate plea from a fellow rescuer!

A Fellow rescuer is being forced to move and leave many outdoor cats that have come to depend on her. She's begging for help with feeding or relocating these precious animals.
*From a concerned animal lover: I have been in touch with a LOVELY, KIND, DEDICATED woman for about 3 years now...she lives in Ozone Park, Queens and feeds MANY, MANY, MANY cats outdoors...they are fixed!
Mary has NO ONE to help her feed now as her ONE &n ONLY helper is not well and cannot continue...IF ANYONE LIVES NEAR OZONE PARK, QUEENS or knows someone who does...PLEASE contact Mary Rossello mmrsello@gmail.com
She is truly DESPERATE and I fear for her health now...and these kitties have come to depend on their meals…
***PLEASE REACH OUT***

This is the note I received tonight: Nov 16
"Trudy I'm in trouble here. Big trouble. I need help desperately with feeding. I'm spending over $1000 a month on cat food and now my 75 year old co feeder is done. She can't continue. I don't have another cent to give to buy any more food or time to feed anymore cats than I already do. These poor babies depend on us. She helps feed 3 nites a week 9 cats. It's too much for her. I’m in trouble. I'm in terrible debt and need to move away because this house is being sold. Have to find someone around here to take over at that house. If you have any contacts on Facebook please do ask out there for these beautiful cats who need help. I'm in so much trouble here. I'm barely Getting to work on time. I can't go out anymore at night or on vacations and I'm worn out and my health is failing all for these cats. I've lost friends and family doesn’t understand. And most of all I am financially ruined. So if you can reach out somehow but I know no one will want to do this. I've tried to get help with just one nite and no one would. This is a terrible prison I'm in here because I love the cats. God help us with this. Thanks for any help you can reach out for. They are all gorgeous sweet cats.”

NE VIRGINIA_Bonded Seniors Need Home ASAP! Will be euth'ed end of week!! Please share for these two!!



11-18-13: These two little souls still need a place to go. Please don't forget about them continue to network for them.

MIA AND RALPHY, PULLED FROM AN ABANDONED HOME NEED YOUR HELP DESPERATELY.

*From Mary: RECENT UPDATE: We have also discovered that Mia is most likely deaf and dear sweet Ralphy has mast cell cancer. I've been balling my eyes out all day. They will not have the tumors surgically removed because they still do not think he is adoptable. I looked it up though and if it is stage 1 or 2 and the tumors are completely removed he has an excellent chance of pulling through and the cancer not coming back. This is almost too much for my heart to bear.

You can contact me any time. I can usually respond within a few minutes.

THIS IS THEIR STORY:  In early August, I pulled two loving seniors (a 12 year old pittie mix named Mia and a 9 year old corgi mix named Ralphy) out of a condemned, abandoned home in my neighborhood. The owners of the home were heroin addicts, one was in the hospital for an overdose and the other was incarcerated for robbing someone at our local Wal-Mart in Martinsburg. They had three young girls under the age of 12--they were
picked up by relatives or placed in a foster home. But no one was there to take

UPDATE:  This dog was caught on Wed 11-6 and is at Gwinnett County AC. The man that has the property the dog was either dumped on or ran away to, who called AC after he and his staff couldn't get near the scared baby without him running, has pledged $1,000 to the reputable rescue that saves him and properly cares for him. Please share for that rescue as well as additional pledges as this dog will not only need good and no doubt costly vet treatment and time with behavioral experts as he/she? is terrified of people given the likelihood this was a bait dog. According to article dog needs out by Nov 12. 
 

Hope then despair -- the images show it all. Please help this neglected dog find the loving home that he deserves. Urgent situation.
We only have limited information. If you have questions or would like to help, please contact Mr. Tobias at his email listed below. This needs to be handled discreetly so that the animal doesn't suffer. Do NOT contact unless you can help save this dog. Please don't leave negative comments or replies. We don't want this post to backfire and wind up hurting this precious dog or the person who is trying to help him.

Nov 6, 2013: "He has a rope around his neck and injuries. Animal Control came out this morning but was unable to apprehend him. He ate all the food, drank water and slept on blanket where he still lays.

One of our employees almost has him comfortable enough to come close. I will pay $500 if you all could come get him and take care of him to prepare him for adoption to a good home. Any suggestions?"

*Memphis, TN: Adorable Teddy Bear Mix Hidden from Public


11-4-13:  This dog was adopted by a lovely lady named Kay Hurst who absolutely adores him. She had a similar looking dog named Sage who died a few years ago. He is in a great home.   Jan Courtney
 
 
This teddy bear is at a high kill facility called Memphis Animal Services.  His ID is A260191 and he is in the stray area of the facility, which is an area where the public is not allowed, which lowers his chances of being adopted. 

He is a male and he’s listed as a “Chow” although he looks more like a terrier of some kind and he’s also listed as being almost five years old, although he looks a lot younger.  He’s heartworm negative.  The staff says he’s very friendly and sweet natured.  
He’s been at Memphis Animal Services since Oct 15, 2013 and needs to be rescued as soon as possible.  Please consider giving this sweet boy a home.  

 
 
 
If you are interested in him, please call Tracy Dunlap

Lake City, FL: Emily...Her body is crippled, but her spirit soars

Emily has been Rescued by The Little Guild of Saint Francis
www.littleguild.org

This precious blonde bundle of love is Emily.  She has a physical challenge, but shhh...don't tell her that.  As far as she is concerned, all that she is missing is a family to love. She's running out of time at the shelter Let's help find her family

The rescue coordinator for the Lake City Humane Society, in Lake City, Fla., is pleading for help for an exceptionally sweet dog who was picked up as a stray back on Oct. 16.

The dog, dubbed "Emily," is crippled; initially, the facility employees believed that Emily had been struck by a car, but after an exam by a veterinary technician, it appears that Emily may have been born with the disability.
Debra Ludwig, the rescue coordinator for the shelter, stated:
"Her rear legs are bowed in at the knees and she can not walk properly although it does not slow her down much. She does not appear to be in pain and is very loving.
We are a small county shelter and do not have to means for a complete vet workup and proper care for this girl.
She is in need of a rescue who can take her in and provide her proper care and evaluate her legs to see what is needed for her."
The hold time is up for this sweet dog and now she desperately
 needs a rescue organization to take her in.

Per the shelter staff, Emily is sweet and quiet and gets along well with other dogs. (Just look at her picture - that says it all.)  Anyone who can help is asked to email: Debrlee1061@aol.com and reference ID# A21279713.
