Noel


Could you please chip in $5 for poor Noel?

Please chip in!

According to the NY Times, over 5,000 dogs a day are put to death in the US.

Please help us save some of them!

Noel ended up in a kill shelter in Texas.  She has a horrible case of mange. She must be suffering intensely from the itching and she is so skinny, she is literally skin, bones and hair.  Her only chance of survival is rescue by a rescue organization because no one will adopt her looking like that.  Noel needs our help.

Someone saw her and was kind enough to call our friends at the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston.  GPRS will save her with our sponsorship.

Our donations will go toward vet bills and other costs of fostering her until a permanent home can be found.

All donations go directly from Paypal to Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston, a 501(c)(3) charity, and are tax-deductible. Please chip in - together we can save this one and many more!

Our Guy


Could you spare $5 to help save this shy boy?

Please Chip In!

Guy is a Doomed Dogs Special.  This poor, shy stray was picked up and put into a kill shelter in Alabama.  Our friend, rescue angel Shari Drube, has been working with different rescue groups over the last month to save him.  Guy won the hearts of the people at the shelter (yes, they do have hearts, and no, they don't work at kill shelters because they don't care about animals - in fact, most people who work at kill shelters love dogs and do everything they can to save as many as they can).  They have been wonderful at giving Guy reprieve after reprieve while the search for a rescue was going on.  

We promised some money ($300) to the rescue that would take him, to make it easier for a rescue organization to step up and take him.  Finally, Double Dog Rescue in Connecticut agreed to take him and transport was arranged.  Now our club needs to step up as well and put in the money we promised to save this wonderful dog.  

Please help if you can!

Our sponsorship will help DoubleDog to afford to vet, feed and foster him, while they find him a permanent family. 

Please help save him by chipping in – even $5 is a big help.  Thanks!

All donations go directly from Paypal to Double Dog Rescue, a 501(c)(3) charity, and are tax-deductible.  Please chip in - together we can help save this one and many more!

Angel


Could you please give $5 to help save this poor girl?
Please chip in at www.doomeddogs.blogspot.com.

This poor gal ended up with a broken leg in an SPCA in Texas.  A homeless stray with a serious medical condition has very little chance of living.  Until our friends at the Texas Great Pyrenees Rescue, heard about her, she had no prospects, other than a quick death.  

TGPR almost never asks us for help – just when they really need it to save a dog’s life.  Well, they are asking us now for our help to save this girl’s life.   Our sponsorship money will go toward her vet bills.

Please help save her life by chipping in!

Bob from North Texas


Could you please chip in $5 for poor Bob?

Please chip in!

Can you believe what a sweet, goofy face this boy has?

Here is the scoop on Bob from an email from our friends at Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston: 

“Would you be able to sponsor this boy? He has had a hard life in his 2 short yrs. He was picked up in a very rural part of north texas. He is full of worms from scavenging for food. Probably from having to eat road kill & whatever else he could find. He is 20 lbs underweight.  At 2 yrs old, he is developing cataracts. He will need extensive blood work done & an appt with an eye specialist to find out what is going on with him. It is very possible that he is diabetic. He is a very sweet boy.”

Let’s get together and raise $200 to enable GPRS to save this boy.

Our sponsorship money will go toward vet bills and other costs of fostering him until a permanent home can be found.

Dallas



An update from Dallas' new owners:


Wanted to give you an update on Dallas, we call her Daisy and she seems to already have gotten use to it and responds very well. She is the sweetest girl, just wants to be with you and loves to snuggle, we're all pretty crazy about her, especially me. Sadie and her are getting along better everyday, Sadie is still getting an occasional attitude and will growl to establish her position, but Daisy seems to go along with it very well. They both doing a lot of running and playing with each other, they're quite entertaining to watch. Dallas (Daisy) is eating well and has her own bed to sleep on and seems to be quite content.
I appreciate what you do and am very happy about the choice we made going with Dallas, she is a joy.
Hope your holidays were great and wishing you a happy New Year. I will stay in touch and keep you informed of Dallas' progress if you would like me to, but rest assured she is in good hands with us and we will take the best care of her that we are able to. She is truly a sweetheart.

Thanks again and wishing you the best.

Sammy


Could you please chip in $5 to help Sammy?

This beautiful young lady is a little over a year old.  She lived on a ranch and was supposed to care for the livestock.  She likes people, though, so she wanted to come into the house and snuggle up with her humans.  Her caring owners had no room for a pet, so they dumped her in a kill shelter.  Owner surrenders in kill shelters may have very little time before they are killed because they are not protected by state law.

We need to get her out of the shelter before they kill her.  No rescue has room for her, but Janet Davis at National Akbash Rescue and Pam Tobin of Sierra Pacific Great Pyr Rescue are willing to take her out of the shelter and get her vetted and boarded if we can put up the money.  Once she is in boarding, they will have time to find her a foster home or permanent family.

Please help us raise $200 to help save her.

All donations go directly from Paypal to Sierra Pacific Great Pyrenees Rescue, a 501(c)(3) charity, and are tax-deductible.

Please help us!  Without the money for boarding , this girl will die…

Please chip in - together we can help save Sammy two and many more!

Stella


Could you please chip in $5 to help Stella?

This beautiful young lady is about a year old. You can tell how sweet she is by looking at that "GP lean" as she leans on her handler at the shelter.   Her caring owners dumped her in a kill shelter in North Carolina because they didn’t have time for her.  So in hopes of “helping her find a better life” they brought her to a kill shelter.  Excellent thinking!

Our tireless webbot patrols Petfinder and Petango every day to find Great Pyrs and Akbashes in danger.  It found Stella and alerted Reg Rand, our rescue coordinator.  Reg started emailing the usual suspects to find a rescue that could take this poor baby in before they killed her.

No one had room for her.  Luckily, Janet Davis at National Akbash Rescue volunteered to put her in boarding to save her life and then sort out a foster for her later.  Janet needs our help to pay for boarding,  so we volunteered to raise $300 to save this girl’s life.

Please help us!  Without the money for boarding , this girl will die…

We just made up Stella as temporary name .  The first person to donate $40 or more can have the honor of giving this girl a real name.

National Akbash works with NGPR, so all donations go directly from Paypal to National Great Pyrenees Rescue, a 501(c)(3) charity, and are tax-deductible.

Please chip in - together we can help save these two and many more!

Ophelia


Could you spare $5 to help this discarded girl?

Please Chip In!

This lovely girl is Ophelia.  Our web-crawling computer bot discovered her in a kill shelter in Georgia a little over a week ago.  It is hard to imagine that the system is set up to kill such a beautiful animal, isn't it?  Fortunately, people like you are out there, trying to help these poor, abandoned babies.

Ragenea, our rescue coordinator, worked with National Great Pyr Rescue and Great Pyr Rescue of Atlanta to save her from being destroyed.  If you would like to see a little bit of the "behind the scenes" work that goes on between some of the most active GP rescue people, go to our Facebook page of new shelter listings here:  http://www.facebook.com/pages/Great-Pyrenees-Rescue-New-Shelter-Listings/154436631279977

Luckily, the wonderful people of Great Pyr Rescue of Atlanta were able to make room for her.  But money, as always, was a concern.  Your generosity through a Doomed Dogs sponsorship will enable them to afford to vet, feed and foster her.

Please help save her by chipping in – even $5 is a big help.  Thanks!

Maxine


Could you please chip in $5 for poor Maxine?

Please chip in!

Maxine was dumped in an inhospitable part of Houston, where she lived for a long time as a stray.  She lost so much weight that she was skin and bones.  She developed an eye infection that, of course, went untreated, so she could barely see.

Someone saw her and was kind enough to call our friends at the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston.  GPRS was able to pick her up.  We agreed to sponsor her.

Our sponsorship money will go toward vet bills and other costs of fostering her until a permanent home can be found.

Texas Mange Girl


Could you please give $5 to help save this mangy girl?
Please chip in at www.doomeddogs.blogspot.com.

This poor gal ended up in a tiny “catch and kill” shelter in Texas.  The shelter is really just a room in the police department, so every dog that goes in has very little chance of living. 

As you can see by the picture, she has mange, which means no one would adopt her.  So she sat at the shelter, lonely, frightened and suffering from the intolerable itchiness of widespread mange.  Until our friends at the Texas Great Pyrenees Rescue, heard about her, she had very little prospects, other than a quick death from the shelter.  TGPR pulled her from the shelter before she could be killed. Our sponsorship money will go toward her vet bills and other costs.  Her mange will be cured and they will find her a good home.

“We are transporting 32 puppies.

4 pregnant dogs (too far along)

l moma Schnauzer and her five - 5 week old puppies
l momma Doxy and her l - 3 week old puppy
9 small dogs
6 large dogs


And I was just contacted about a Jack Russell mom and her 7 puppies (will have to see if someone can take them). Another little dog around 10 lbs dumped on Dwight Mission Road.

I picked up 20 little dogs from the city of Vian yesterday. They have to be worked with, and hopefully they can go somewhere next month.


If anyone can help us, once again, we would greatly appreciate the help. I have to take all the dogs to the vet tomorrow for their vaccinations and health check. I will be "on the road" all day doing this.

Thank you Michael and to all, without your help, we could not get these guys to their home up north.

60 to Safety!


Could you chip in a little bit to support a rescue trip to save 60 (or more!) dogs? Each $5 donation saves a life! 
Please chip in!

Our friends Connie and Dave are planning another trip.  I can’t match Connie for eloquence so here is her email to me from last week: 

Hi Michael and all Friends,
David and Ryan are heading back from MN today. We transported on Monday night 58 puppies and big dogs. It was a big transport. Two of the dogs have to come back because they have heartworms. A border collie (pure) and German Shepherd  (pure). Animal Humane Society is heartworm testing for us, because it costs so much down here.

We are thankful for the donations for gas. Every penny counts.

Next Friday the 14th, we are planning a huge transport to Chicago. We have one mom with 9 puppies, and right now we have over 30 puppies. For this same transport, we are taking 15 bigger dogs to Paws Humane Society in Chicago.

The plan is to transport 60.

This may be one of the last transports. With the weather changing up north, we have to watch and be careful of snow, ice.

So, this is why THIS transport is so vital. We have to transport next week to give these babies their chance for a home.

Next month may be too late.

We live within 2 miles of the Illinois River. Yesterday a lady found 6 puppies right by the river. What is so bad about this, the damn releases water every 4 hours. If this lady had not of happen upon these babies, well we know they would have been swept down river.

They are very tiny, rat terrier mixes. Very skinny and they were very hungry.

The lady called me, of course. And yes, I told her I would meet her and get them. Took them all to the vet today for their vaccinations.

With TLC, these babies will get to go next week to Chicago.

Each day I get many calls, emails. I never want to turn away a dog or puppy.

Keeping the transports going, taking these precious babies north is their only chance.

So, we are asking one more time for your help, for them.

We named these babies all names from the Bible. We all know how precious these souls are to our Lord.

Will keep you posted.

God Bless,

Connie and Dave

Could you please chip in $5 for this big girl?

Please chip in!

Kara is a Great Pyrenees that was dumped in a Texas kill shelter by her owners.  She has been abused by her owners.  Unfortunately going from abusing owners to death row in a kill shelter is not a huge improvement.  Nobody wanted to adopt her at the shelter.  She was to be executed when, with our sponsorship, our friends at the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston took her in.   

Our sponsorship money will go toward vet bills and other costs of fostering her until a permanent home can be found.

Dolly


Could you spare $5 to help this recycled girl?

Please Chip In!

This lovely three-year-old gyrl is Dolly.  She was a lonely stray in Georgia, in danger of being shot, hit by a car, starving to death or being put to sleep in a kill shelter.    Her future was grim.  Without the help of people you like you that are willing to contribute to rescues, she would be dead.  However, with our sponsorship, our rescue partner, Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta, agreed to take her in.  Our sponsorship is helping them to afford to vet, feed and foster her.

Please help save her by chipping in – even $5 is a big help.  Thanks!

Death Row Giant Needs Help!



GPRS needs our help to take this beautiful boy out of the shelter – could you please chip in?

This handsome giant is in a Texas kill shelter right now.  Our rescue partners at Great Pyr Rescue Society of Houston would like to save him before he is killed, but they have no available fosters to take him.  That means that they will have to put him in boarding.  Boarding is expensive and they can’t afford it now.

They need our help to save him.  If we can raise $200, that should be enough to board him for a few weeks until a foster can be found.  He should be very adoptable, if we can give him a chance - lots of people love those badger markings.

He doesn’t have a name, so the first person to donate $40 can choose a name for him.

Please help if you can – he does not have much time left!

Thanks!

Saving 48 Arkansas pups!


Could you chip in a little bit to support a rescue trip to save 48 (or more!) dogs? Each $6 donation saves a life!

Please chip in!

Our friends Connie and Dave are planning another trip next Tuesday.  They money we raise for them pays for gas.  They cannot do this without us!

Connie and Dave will transport at least 48 dogs for a poor rescue in Arkansas that can’t afford to feed them.  They will take the dogs to safety to Minnesota.

There is no better way I know to spend $6 than to save the life a little puppy or a stray dog.

The stray dog situation in parts of Arkansas is beyond desperate.  Connie and Dave are the only hope for so many dogs and puppies and your contributions really help - without gas money, the vans don't roll!

Connie and Dave regularly drive around and pick up doomed dogs from shelters in Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri. These dogs would likely be put to sleep if not for them.  Your donations literally make the difference as to whether there is enough gas money for these trips to happen or not and whether these dogs live or die- thanks for your support!

Traeh


Could you spare $5 to help save this stray boy?
 
Please Chip In!

Traheh is a big, beautiful, 4-year-old Great Pyrenees dog.  He was a lonely stray in Georgia, dirty, matted and starving.  A kind woman picked him up and our friends at Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta, with our sponsorship, have taken him into foster care.  Poor Traeh is still 30 pounds or more underweight, from his days of starving on the road.  

Our sponsorship is helping GPRA to afford to vet, feed and foster him, while they find him a permanent family. They say that Traeh is an angelic as he looks in this picture - when he finds a new home, they are going to love him.

Please help save him by chipping in – even $5 is a big help.  Thanks!

Grace


Could you spare $5 to help this recycled girl?

Please Chip In!

This lovely two-year-old gyrl is Grace.  She ended up in a Georgia kill shelter but was lucky enough to be pulled from the shelter by farmers who hoped she would help on their farm with their goats.  Despite Grace’s impeccable Great Pyrenees heritage of livestock guarding, she flunked out as goat protector because she is afraid of goats!  That would be funny, except that it meant she was going to be returned to the kill shelter.

Rose


Could you spare $5 to help this stray girl?

Please Chip In!

This lovely two-year-old gyrl is Rose.  She ended up in a Georgia kill shelter and no one wanted to adopt her, so she was scheduled to be put to sleep.  Well, that is why our group and the Great Pyr Resue of Atlanta exist.  With our sponsorship, Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta agreed to take her in.  Our sponsorship is helping them to afford to vet, feed and foster her.

Please help save her by chipping in – even $5 is a big help.  Thanks!

Everest


Emergency! [Update - thanks to your generosity, we have enough now!]

Could you spare $5 to help save this stray boy?

Please Chip In!

Everest is a 5-year-old Great Pyrenees dog.  He is in a kill shelter in Alabama and is due to die today.  We are part of a group that has pledged to contribute enough money to induce a rescue, Lifeline Animal Placement, to take him from the shelter today.  Our part is $150, but we need to contribute today.

If you can, please help save him by chipping in – even $5 is a big help.  Thanks!

Savannah


Could you give $5 to save this starved lady?
 
This lean giant is Savanah.  She is a Saint Bernard girl that was dumped at a kill shelter in Texas, sick and lonely. My guess is that she was too big to feed, so her owners left her to die.  She is severely underweight (at least 50 pounds) and needs an operation on an infected paw.  In that condition, no one wanted to adopt her and she ran out of time at the shelter.  With our sponsorship, she is being saved by the angels at Saint Cloud's Rescue.

Our donations will help to feed her (and she needs it!) and to pay for her medical bills.

Please chip in and help raise $125 for her using the ChipIn.

Recca and 40 Other Dogs


Could you chip in a little bit to support a rescue trip to save 40 (or more!) dogs? Each $7 donation saves a life!

Please chip in!

Our friends Connie and Dave are planning another trip.  I can’t match Connie for eloquence so here is her email to me:

Hi Michael,
We are again in need. We went to MN on the 7th with 52 dogs (18 puppies) and we just got back last night from Chicago (we had a pregnant dog ready to give birth) and we took another 19 puppies.

We have lined up another 40 plus to go next Friday the 23rd to Chicago. We are helping another rescue that we helped on the 7th. She has over 60 dogs and still more puppies.

Our transports are urgent now, mainly because of how fast the weather will start changing up north.

The other reason is that this rescue has little to no resources for food or vet care.

We will take as many as we can. Then we will make another trip the week of October 3rd, hopefully with all the rest of this rescue's animals.

Reeca is one of the ones that wants the chance to go for her home.

All the puppies that were transported to MN on the 7th have already been adopted.

Homes are waiting for these precious lives, we just have to get them there.

Any help, as always, will be most appreciated by Dave and me and of course the dogs and puppies that will get their chance for a home.

Thank you all so very much,

Connie and Dave

The stray dog situation in Oklahoma is beyond desperate.  Connie and Dave are the only hope for so many dogs and puppies and your contributions really help - without gas money, the vans don't roll!

Connie and Dave regularly drive around and pick up doomed dogs from shelters in Oklahoma and Missouri. These dogs would likely be put to sleep if not for them.  Your donations literally make the difference as to whether there is enough gas money for these trips to happen or not and whether these dogs live or die- thanks for your support!

All donations go directly from Paypal to Save Our Strays, a 501(c)(3) charity, and are tax-deductible.

Ava


Could you please chip in $5 to help save Ava?

Please chip in!

This poor Great Pyr was a stray in rural Texas.  Ava survived long enough to be picked up by animal control and ended up in a kill shelter.  At the shelter, she became a great pal of Alva, a sweetie we sponsored last week.  She was to be executed within 24 hours, when, with our sponsorship, our friends at the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston took her in.   

Our sponsorship money will go toward vet bills and other costs of fostering her until a permanent home can be found.

Tiny


Could you spare $5 to help save this poor mangy boy?

Please Chip In!

The surprising thing about this picture is that Tiny was not a homeless stray picked up by animal control.  Instead, he had a home and some loser owners who couldn’t or wouldn’t feed him enough or give him basic medical care.  Dogs with mange this bad suffer horribly.  I find it hard to imagine how anyone could own a dog like this and not do whatever they could to help him.  Anyway, Tiny is in terrible shape.

To save him, our friends at Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta, with our sponsorship, have taken him into foster care.  Our sponsorship is helping them to afford to vet and foster him, while they find him a permanent family. 

Please help save him by chipping in – even $5 is a big help.  Thanks!

All donations go directly from Paypal to Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta, a 501(c)(3) charity, and are tax-deductible.  This rescue has done a wonderful job in saving the lives of hundreds of Great Pyrenees and GP mixes.  Your support of many of those dogs has been a huge help to them – your money helps keep them operating and saving doomed dogs.  Please chip in - together we can help save this one and many more!

Freedom


Could you please chip in $5 for this little Pyr girl?

Please chip in!

This poor, frightened girl is a young Great Pyrenees that was abandoned to the life of a stray in rural Texas.  She survived long enough to be picked up by animal control and ended up in a kill shelter.  She was scheduled to be killed after her three-day hold was up.  Although she is a sweetie with a heartbreaking, winsome, pleading look, nobody wanted to adopt her.  She was to be executed when, with our sponsorship, our friends at the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston took her in.   

Our sponsorship money will go toward vet bills and other costs of fostering her until a permanent home can be found.

The first person to donate $35 or more can have the pleasure of naming her! [Update - Lori Davenport, the first big donor, gave her the wonderful name of  "Freedom", in honor of those that died on or because of 9/11.]
