Lady

Update:  Lady was pulled from the shelter by the wonderful people at Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta with the support of our donations and put into foster care.
This is Lady, the unfortunate Pyr used as a breeding machine for a puppy mill in Missouri. We raised $35 for her last week, but we need another $65 to sponsor her acceptance with Great Pyr Rescue of Atlanta. 

Here's her story from a Pyr rescuer: "a three year old pyr that a breeder said they were going to stop feeding b/c she isn't producing pups (her last litter only consisted of two still borns). You can imagine how this disgusts all of us that love animals, and the rescue doesn't have anyone to take her." 

Lady's case is doubly confusing because originally we were raising money to enable NC Coastal Pyr to rescue her - but they have been overwhelmed by an influx of a lot of sick King Charles Cavaliers from a puppy mill, so they can't take her. GPRA has agreed to take her. GPRA changed her name to Emily (not the same Emily that is going to Colorado). Anyway, our donations will enable GPRA to take her on and pay some of her medical expenses.

Please help raise the remaining $65 for her by making a tax deductible donation of $5 to $25 on the GPRA site with a credit card or Paypal or by sending them a check:http://www.greatpyratlanta.com/donate.html

Thanks!
