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.

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

Rescue Trip for 32 Dogs!


Could you chip in a little bit to support a rescue trip to save 32 (or more!) dogs? Each $6 donation saves a life!

Please chip in!

Our friends Connie and Dave are planning another trip.  Here are excerpts from an email from Connie about the trip:

“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.

Connie and David”

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!

Henry


Could you give $5 to save this abandoned boy?

Please chip in!

This handsome Saint is Henry. He is a great big boy that ended up as a stray in Texas.  Bad went to worse when he was picked up and brought to a kill shelter.  His future was dim when our rescue partners, Rosie and Gisela at St. Cloud’s, stepped up to save him with our sponsorship.

Our donations will make it possible for St. Clouds to afford his vet bills and upkeep while they find him a good home.

Please chip in and help raise $140 for him using the ChipIn.

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

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

Kara


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.

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!

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!

All donations go directly from Paypal to Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta, a 501(c)(3) charity, and are tax-deductible.  YOUR DONATIONS HAVE ENABLED GPRA TO SAVE DOZENS OF DOGS LIKE DOLLY, PLEASE HELP ADD ANOTHER ONE TO THE LIST!
