Hi Michael and Friends,

Valentine's Day is coming soon. These precious little souls are asking for a special request.

All have been accepted to catch the Dog Gone Express for this Sunday.

These little sweethearts are asking for us to give them their chance for a home by Valentine's Day.

In the next email is 6 puppies that will be put down tomorrow at the Poteau Vet Clinic if I don't take them.

They too can go on this trip to Wisconsin.

The key is to have the gas to get them there.

It takes 100 gallons of gas to make the trip, up and back.

This trip Sunday, all of these puppies could go. Also, they have approved 12 adults from the pound to make the trip.

Please help Dave and me to be able to make this trip this Sunday. 

I know we will forever be grateful, and most important these precious sweethearts will forever thank you.

God Bless,

Connie Sue Guthrie President

Beethoven

Could you please chip in a little to help Beethoven?

Here's an email from our friends at St Cloud's Rescue:

“We pulled this sweet boy from Craigs List.  We paid to get this boy!  He is a mess.  He obviously hasn't had vaccinations, EVER,  He hasn't been neutered and he has mites, worms and giardia.  His ear mites treatment is very expensive and we haven't even begun to get it cleared up.  He is also heartworm positive and that treatment is so expensive.  The only choice we had was to take this baby or leave him and let someone use him for fighting bait.  Please will you help us raise some funds to get treatment for this boy???  He is sweet as he can be, obviously has never had to respond to his name; and we’re not so sure he isn't at least partially deaf (hopefully not permanently) due to horrible ear infections.”

Please chip in and help raise $300 for his medical bills.

Your help can save his life!

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 hapless creature!

Gretchen and Pups

One of the best and most active rescuers of Great Pyrenees in the country is Leslie Sampson of LoneStar Pyrs & Paws-North.  Leslie has a wonderful organization up in New Hampshire and her group takes loads of GPs from the South, fosters them and finds them good homes.

We haven't sponsored many dogs for LoneStar North, because Leslie only asks for help if they really need it.

Well, they are asking for help to save Gretchen and her puppies.

Gretchen made the mistake of getting pregnant (as if it were her fault she was never spayed) and got dumped in a kill shelter with her puppies in New York.  I guess her irresponsible owner just couldn't deal with the hassle, so he throws his pet (and her babies) to be killed.

Lucky for Gretchen, Leslie agreed to take them all with our sponsorship.

Please chip in to help save these dogs!

Our donations will go directly to LoneStar Pyrs & Paws - North and be used for vetting and feeding these beautiful dogs.

Thanks!

Lia

Update - when GPRS got Bucky, he turned out to be a girl (or should we say a gyrl?)!  She has been renamed Lia.  The vet thinks that Lia was kicked - very hard, so that's why she can barely walk.

Thanks for donating!

Could you please help save Bucky?

This puppy was found injured in a kill shelter in Central Texas.

When our friends from Great Pyrenees Rescue of Houston agreed to take Bucky, they knew it was going to be an expensive rescue as he can barely walk .  Of course, no one will adopt this sweetie until he gets fixed up.

GPRS Houston needs help with this one.  We have agreed to sponsor $300 - part of the cost of his medical expenses.  Please help if you can!

With our sponsorship, Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston will get Bucky vetted and put him  in a loving foster home while they look for a good permanent home for him.


Our sponsorship money will go toward vet bills.

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!

If you are interested in adopting, please contact GPRS at http://www.gprescuesociety.org/

Yogi

Please give $5 to help save poor Yogi!


Yogi was owner surrendered to a kill shelter in rural Texas. He is five years old, and a purebred chocolate lab. He is heartworm positive, which means that he was not a good candidate for rescue.

 Yogi's owner told the shelter director that Yogi had alerted her when a seizure was coming on. He saved her life numerous times. Another time robbers came into the home and Yogi kept them cornered until the police arrived.

His owner could not keep him any longer (we suspect she was going into assisted living) and she left him at the pound, and asked that he find a great home. [Excuse me, but that sounds incredibly lame to us - the dog saves your life so you dump him in a kill shelter?  People can be so irresponsible!]  Sadly Angleton shelter cannot adopt to the public. So the only options are rescue or euthanasia.  She did report that he was good with all other dogs, small children and cats.

At the shelter, the director puts many dogs in each kennel so that she doesn't have to kill them unless she has to, and begs rescues to save them.

Yogi was in a kennel with all the puppies she had, and at night he'd let them all sleep snuggled up against him to keep them warm.

Our friend Em Wolf of Mountain Dog Rescue  needs help with this one.  We have agreed to sponsor him to enable them to save him and give him the care he needs.  Please help if you can!


With our sponsorship, Mountain Dog Rescue will get him vetted, get medicine for his heartworm and put him in a loving foster home while they look for a good permanent home for him.

All donations go directly from Paypal to Mountain Dog Rescue. Please chip in - together we can save this one and many more!

Six Abused Great Pyrs Need Help

Please see this post from National Great Pyrenees Rescue at http://www.nationalpyr.org/neediest-cases


Holiday Horror Show (12/21/12)

On Friday, 12/21, NGPR volunteers descended on the home of a Finger Lakes, NY Great Pyrenees AKC breeder. The visit was necessary as the woman is no longer able to care for her dogs. Volunteers went to the house where they found six, totally unsocialized dogs who were kept in appalling conditions. Large adult dogs were imprisoned 24/7, some in crates where their backs touched the top. Their fur came up through the wire tops, and they were unable to fully lift their heads. More pictures of these horrible conditions are here.

Kuma, a 6-year-old female, who had been bred every heat, lived 24/7 in a dark, windowless cupboard. On  the day after her release from these squalid conditions, a Pyr volunteer who is a groomer, started to gently work on her and was heartbroken at the unemotional, blank stare in Kuma's eyes. She said that, hopefully, with great patience, much understanding and loving care, this poor, sweet, timid girl will eventually be O.K. All the dogs were very badly matted, filthy, flea and tick-ridden with toe nails curling under. They were only allowed water once a day to limit peeing in their crates. The volunteers were told that two of the males were too aggressive to be rehabbed and would need to be euthanized. There was great joy and relief when these two dogs, once removed from their confinement, just wanted to sniff the volunteers, trees and grass.

Volunteers Bring Dogs to Lollypop Farm

The dogs were brought to Lollypop Farm in Rochester for vaccinations and were the center of attention in the lobby. All were calm and well-behaved--quite a feat for totally unsocialized dogs who had just been removed from the only life they had known. One woman cried when she met them and saw their horrible, filthy condition. Given the short notice at holiday time, these dogs will be boarded in a kennel this week or until fosters and homes can be found for them. Boarding for the dogs will be $102/day plus their medical costs. One dog has significant rear-end issues that need to be addressed. We need your help to care for these neglected dogs at a time of year where the options are limited.

Please chip in to help save these poor dogs!

Thanks!

Email to our group from rescue angel Connie Guthrie:

Dear Michael and Friends,

What a wonderful way to end the year 2012 with lives being saved.

These puppies are among 30 that need to make the transport for December 22. And you can bet they will have a home for Christmas.

Along with these 30 puppies, we have l mom and her 8 puppies 3 days old, another 22 adults will get their chance too.

Dave and me want to thank each one of you. Without YOU these transport trips would not have been made, and lives would have not of been saved.

God Bless each one of you, and Merry Christmas.

With God's blessing we will be on the road Christmas Eve.  Coming back knowing all of these precious souls will have their forever home this Christmas.

Noel

Life or death? That’s the phone call that came to our friend, Paige, of Lonestar Pyrs & Paws Texas. A young female Pyr, now named Noel, had been hit by a car and dumped.  Taken to a vet – and the vet knowing Paige and her rescue – they called asking if Lonestar could save this baby girl as she needed surgery to repair her broken bones ASAP. Without hesitation, Paige said, “Yes!”  Noel has successfully had surgery, but the costs are high. Can you spare $5 or $10 to help Lonestar TX? Noel says thank you for helping save her life.

SOS Puppy Rescue

Email to our group from rescue angel Connie Guthrie:


Hi Michael and Friends,
We just got home tonight from transporting to Wisconsin Humane Society.

We transported 23 puppies, l mom and her 6 babies (picture was sent to you), 24 adults 4 - 6 month old puppies.

They were overjoyed in Wisconsin to see these Oklahoma beauties.

We HAVE to do another transport on December 10, 2012.

Wisconsin and our Chicago friends wants us to bring up at least 50 of our adults. We also have another 25 puppies for this transport.

PLEASE remember us. We will be taking the mini bus and gas for it is more costly.

Mom and pups from an earlier trip.

The trip to Wisconsin from our home is 15 hours.  We went 900 miles one way. That is 180 gallons of gas for the mini bus.

The trip this week was 1700 miles up and back. Gas for the trip was 120 gallons.

We are so concerned about the weather up north. So this may be the last trip for quite a while.  Any and all dogs that can make this trip is so important for their chance for a home for the holidays.

Dave and me want to wish all a happy Thanksgiving.

More Puppies

Hi Michael and Friends.

I know it has been awhile since we have emailed you. We have not slowed down. Since October 12 we have transported 289 dogs and puppies to Chicago.  205 went to the Hugh Petco Adoption Event held on October 27th and 28th.

Then we continued to transport each week to other humane societies. We just got back home from transporting 17 puppies to Paws and 4 others to West Suburban Humane Society.


Next Sunday we are going to a new humane society in Wisconsin.

We will be taking our mini bus and right now we are hopeful to transport a total of 56.

25 will be puppies. l mom and her babies (this is her picture). And the rest young adults.

We went to Arkansas on October 16 and pulled 95 from a hoarder. We along with a Chicago group took over 300 from this place.  Most was under weight, sick, many in season and several pregnant.

I brought the 95 to my indoor transport facility. Where we have been giving them the needed TLC. We have been transporting each week some of them.

This Thursday we will transport 56 to spay/neuter clinic and then we will get them on each transport north.

We will take pictures this Sunday of the transport as we unload these precious babies.

Thank you all for your continued support to Dave and me. Without your support we could not help these precious lives.


This mom and her 6 babies are really precious. As you can see they are all healthy and playful. Mom is pretty special to have kept them all alive. They were dumped by the river.  Thank God someone found them.

Puppy Transports

Connie and Dave Guthrie have a full time, unpaid job - saving the unwanted puppies of Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri.

Their strategy is simple, but very time consuming.  They drive around to kill shelters and pick the babies up (along with their moms) and take them home.  Other rescues collect unwanted puppies and drop them off at Connie's to give them a chance at life.

When Connie and Dave have a big batch of them (40 or 50 or more), they pop them into their big van and drive them North to Chicago or Minneapolis to no-kill shelters that adopt them out.

Connie has a big load of puppies to save almost every week.

SilverBell

Could you please chip in a little to help SilverBell?

Here's an email from our friends at St Cloud's Rescue:

"For those of you who don't know SilverBell, was at a kill shelter.  She came in with a hole in her paw.  They did not seek any vet care for her while she was on hold.   St. Cloud's Rescue pulled her and immediately took her to the vet.  Her temperature was 105.5 and she was one sick pup.  We had to wait 10 days for her to get well enough to have surgery.   We were very lucky she only had to have a toe amputated.  She is just skin and bones!"


With over 45 Saints in the rescue now, however, Rosie really needs our help.

Please chip in and help raise $250 for her medical bills.

Your help can save her live!

Willow and Ivy

Willow and Ivy lived on a ranch where they were supposed to workers.  Unfortunately, they got into the very bad habit of eating eggs.  Fine in a suburb but not acceptable on a ranch.

Their tough-minded owner decided to take direct approach to the problem by shooting the two girls.  Luckily, a neighbor of hers was a dog lover, who grabbed them before they could be shot.

The neighbor couldn't keep them and appealed to our friends from Great Pyrenees Rescue of Houston to take them.

GPRS Houston needs our help to save these two.  Please help if you can!

With our sponsorship, Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston will get them vetted and put them in a loving foster home (where they will be fed plenty of eggs) while they look for a good permanent home for her.

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

Carly

Could you please help save Carly?

My name’s Carly, and I was walking the streets of Coweta County, GA, begging for food and water,  looking for any decent shelter. Then someone found me and took me in.  But just when I thought I was safe they broke my heart again and dumped me at the kill shelter.

You see, the vet told them that I tested positive for Heartworms and that the treatment would cost a lot of money – money they didn’t have. So there I sat, with my life on the line, until at last my true angels came along. With the agreement of you wonderful people at the Doomed Dogs Rescue Club to provide money for sponsorship, Linda Palermo and her group, TenderHeart Rescue, saved my life.  Can you help them get me back on my feet and get the treatment I need? Even a $1 makes a difference to me. I Pyrsonally thank you for helping me and this wonderful rescue!

Cooper

Please see the plea below from our friends at Caring Hearts Rescue:



Cooper is in big trouble. Cooper is a young 4 year old Poodle!  We rescued him from the Shelter and sadly he is peeing blood!!! We rushed him in for a urinalysis and x-rays and it turns out this sweetie has Bladder Stones!! Since there is a lot of blood, we're hoping to have him into surgery ASAP!!!  The cost we're hoping to raise for the Bladder Stone surgery is $800.00.  

Please, help this sweetie!!! He's just full of love and kisses!  He is in Pain!! Your donation is tax deductable!! Thank you!!

Polly

This poor girl is Polly.  She has some terrible problems with her legs - see the videos here:

http://youtu.be/7A97OjE7Jbs

http://youtu.be/ypQy7-5Ii-I

http://youtu.be/B1tw78Nrs6k

It is very painful for her to walk.  She needs bilateral luxating patella surgery - very expensive!  With the surgery, she should be as good as new and walk without pain.

Please help cure this poor girl!

When our friends from Great Pyrenees Rescue of Houston agreed to take her, they knew that this was going to be an expensive rescue.  Of course, no one will adopt this sweetie until she gets fixed up.

GPRS Houston needs help with this one.  We have agreed to sponsor part of the cost of Polly's surgery.  Please help if you can!

With our sponsorship, Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston will get her vetted and put her in a loving foster home while they look for a good permanent home for her.

Tabitha

Could you chip in $5 to help save this doomed momma and baby?

After a tough career as a breeding machine, Tabitha ended up as an inmate in a Texas kill shelter, together with her baby daughter, Sabrina.  Tabitha and Sabrina have been  horribly neglected - starved and just covered in ticks and fleas.  Not sure yet, but they also likely have heartworms.

Lucky for Tabitha and Sabrina, rescue angels Rosie and Gisela of St Clouds are always there for Saints in need.   With over 45 Saints in the rescue now, however, Rosie really needs our help to be able to afford to take on two more big dogs to vet and feed.

That's what our Club is for, so we have agreed to help sponsor the rescue of these two girls.

Please chip in and help raise $250 for them using the ChipIn.

Beckham

Please give $5 to help save poor Beckham!

Sweet Beckham was found wandering the streets in Harris County.  He ended up in a kill shelter that gives 3 days and then, rescue or dead.

He is in such bad shape that his only possible hope was for a rescue to take him before the shelter put him to sleep.  With a  horrible case of mange, he was not an attractive candidate for a rescue to take him.

Great Pyrenees Rescue of Houston  needs help with this one.  We have agreed to sponsor him to enable them to save him and give him the care he needs.  Please help if you can!

With our sponsorship, Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston will get him vetted, get medicine for his mange and put him in a loving foster home while they look for a good permanent home for her.

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

Billy

Could you give $5 to help save Billy?

The Doomed Dogs Rescue Club exists to provide a little financial assistance to cash-strapped rescues so they can take dogs out of danger and find them good homes.

We were contacted by Ellen Moore at Fireside Rescue.  This beautiful Great Pyrenees got into a bad situation.  He was in a kill shelter in Mississippi and due to die shortly.

Ellen was given just a couple of days to step in and take Billy before he was killed.  Ellen needed a sponsor to be able to take him, so she asked us for help.  A little bit of money from some of us can save Billy's life.

Our money will go toward the costs of vetting him and feeding him until a good home is found.

Please help!

Fireside Animal Rescue is not a 501(c)(3), so donations are not tax deductible.
