One of the biggest angels in Great Pyrenees (and other breeds) rescue is Wy Neeley. We have worked with her many times to save dogs. She has gotten very involved in helping the big bunch of GPs caught up in the big Texas cruelty case that you may have heard of.
Here is an email we received: "The shelter is telling me there are 2 females and 8 males, looks like she was breeding them some. The two girls are HW- but all the males are HW+ all under weight but not badly all are scared to death.
These dogs are all part of a cruelty seizure by Killeen Animal Control. They were rescued from a hoarding environment with very bad living conditions. These dogs are available to rescue only. Many of them are shy but not aggressive. They are considered URGENT. They need out ASAP or they will be euthanized. We are overloaded at KAC. If Great Pry rescue is interested in any of these, let me know and...
I will be able to provide you with more information. I believe all of them have been de-wormed and given a first round of shots. They have also been heartworm tested. I believe some are neg and some are positive. But like I said, if the rescue is interested in any of them, let me know and I can get more info. For now, here are the pictures. I believe there are 7 pictured that need placement asap.
If anyone can foster or rescue one of these poor babies before they are killed, you can contact ...and she can pull for you. These Pyrs have NO TIME. If anyone can pledge a donation to help with vetting for those who can be saved, that would be great. Thank you. This is truly an emergency. They have to euthanize for space."
After a lot of work by Wy and many others, homes have been found for all 10 of these big GPs - but they need money to transport them this weekend..
Wy set up this chip in - please help save these dogs by making a small donation - thanks!
Message from Wy:
"Per Duste, a transport that will run 4 of the cruelty case Pyrs from TX to CO will cost $650.00. Vetting will run $100.00 for each of the 10 Pyrs (includes Health Certificate for travel). There will not be any Pyrs going to MN as they all found rescues in TX and CO (thank you lord)
Eileen has worked very hard in getting the transport set up but we are relying on chip in to help us get these dogs up to Co. We have been very lucky in getting rescue groups to take all ten plus one other dog. The dogs leave Saturday (September 1st). These dogs have now a chance for a family and home something they have never had before. Three rescue groups here in TX stepped up and each took two dogs two Co. group stepped up and took two each plus a white shepherd from the same cruelty case. So far we have been very lucky these do not seem to have any health issue. All are scared but working it out in there own time. From what we can see besides being smelly and dirty nothing much is wrong that love and time can not cure we need help in getting them up to the Co. groups. Can you help us?"
