This beautiful male Shar-Pei (possibly purebred) was found hiding in a horse
barn on this couple's horse farm (outside Searcy). They named him Buddy
Tuff. He is mostly deaf but may have a little hearing in one ear. The
couple gave him a home there for almost two years and he has never bothered
the adult horses. They have had baby colts born this year and Buddy Tuff
has started chasing them. A friend of the couple in the city of Searcy has
VERY TEMPORARILY agreed to keep him. Buddy Tuff MUST find a new home ASAP!
I believe Buddy Tuff has had his vaccinations and rabies but has not been
neutered. The owners have indicated they would help with this cost if a
good home or foster could be found for him.
Does anyone have an adopter interested in a beautiful Shar-Pei? Does anyone
know of a Shar-Pei rescue within a reasonable distance of Searcy? Any help
on getting Buddy Tuff to safety would be greatly appreciated!

Coco needs a foster or forever home!contact Lisa at lduniphan-floyd@sandi.net Crossposting and forwarding welcome!Coco II - Posted April 14th
San Diego, CA
My name is Coco and I need a forever home! I'm a spayed BLACK CHOW-CHOW/KEESHOND. I just had eye surgery and I am ready to find a great family to live with. For more information contact Lisa at lduniphan-floyd@

Apparently he and his father live together, and they are fighting. The
father told his son to bring the dog to the shelter, and have him put down.
When he found out that his son just signed him over, he called the shelter
demanding that the dog be PTS. The staff said they were going to try to
find someone to take him, and the man flew into a rage saying that he wanted
that damn dog dead! It apparently scratched him, poor thing's nails are
unbelievably long. This man is coming to the shelter in the morning to sign
euthanasia papers, and stay there while the dog is put to sleep.
Needless to say, this poor baby is currently in the back of Lucy's van! We
need to get him out of here ASAP, so that if and when the shelter director
caves in to the former owner's demands (and he will) and requests this poor,
confused dog be returned for euthanasia, we will no longer have him.
Lucy is heading to Atlanta tonight, and she can take him with her if there
is anyone along the way. I know it's a long shot but hey, this board has
worked miracles before. It's worth a shot! I met this boy a little while
ago. He's SO sweet and affectionate. He's not much more than a year or so
old.
My phone # is: 504-319-2655, and Lucy's is: 504-202-3716. Try Lucy first,
and call me if you can't reach her.
Thanks,

I heard about this from a friend-in-rescue and thought I just had to pass it on:
This organization is giving away a cart for any dog in need of one with an owner who cannot provide/afford it. A doggie owner who bought one is now giving one away to a dog in need. If anyone here knows of a previous foster, or any dog in need right now, please go to http://dogkarts. com/donate/ to check it out.
Hello,
This is Christina Faris, and I was hoping you could find a rescue facility
that could take in my injured horse Riley.
I Got Riley January 2006 from a man named Bruce Dirksen. You see I have
always wanted a horse, and I was looking in the paper for a horse that was
in my price range. When I came upon his ad. I went to his ranch in Elkhorn,
NE. At the time Riley had just turned 3. He said she was Greenbroke. He
rode her around the arena saying "she may lay down on you, but you just
gotta kick her and she'll get back up." Bruce weighed at least 250 lbs. He
let me ride her, and she was really calm and gentle, but she just didn't
have that urge to go like a lot of horses, but I loved her, she seemed
perfect. He told me that her back end was flat like that because she was
young and hadn't filled out yet, he said I would just have to work with her
a lot. So I told him I could make payments and he agreed.
I thought he was just a really nice guy, because a lot of horse owners want
their money right then and there, but I realize now he accepted the payments
cause I was the only one dumb enough to be suckered into believing that
their was nothing wrong with that horse. I paid $900 for Riley it took me 3
months to work up that money because I was only 16. I started paying in
November and took her home in January. I rode that horse for about the next
6 months, but she was different from all the other horses I had ridden she
didn't want to go fast. Everybody told me it was because I wasn't pushing
her hard enough, they told me to "get mean" so I pushed her. I worked with
that horse everyday, and she showed no improvement. I hired a horse trainer,
mark lyons, because Riley had a real hard time backing up ( which Bruce
explained as she pulled a cart so she has a "fear" of backing up and running
into a cart, real smooth) Mark lyons also told me I wasn't pushing her hard
enough. he took her reins and told her to back up and gave her a push on the
chest she slowly started moving backward and he pushed her to go faster by
whipping her with the leather reins really hard on both sides of her neck.
Riley tried to move faster to get away from the pain of the reins but he
said she was "dragging her feet" so he continued to hit her until she got so
scared, and in pain that she fell over backwards, where he continued to hit
her until she got up. That was the last time that trainer ever saw Riley. If
I had any common sense I would have stopped him mid hit, but at the time I
didn't know that anything was wrong with her. I regret that so much. Over
the next few months I realized something was just not right with Riley when
I was riding her and she showed pain when she would go up hills. I took her
to a vet in Glenwood and she pushed on her back where the spine meets the
pelvis and said she had a problem and she would need X-rays, but the only
clinics that had a machine that big would be Ames, IA. I couldn't trailer
her that far at the time so I just stopped riding her. we put her on acres
of land with my uncle Pete's other horses. Where over the winter months her
condition would worsen. When the snow started to melt Riley actually got
Stuck in the mud and had to be pulled out. We brought her over to the other
side of the farm in a smaller area. I went out the next morning because I
had decided that the hay just wasn't keeping the necessary weight on her, so
I went out to give her grain. I discovered that she had either fallen or
laid down on the mud and was unable to get up. This time was worse, we tried
pulling her with the halter and pushing her but none of our attempts were
working. so we ended up pulling her out of the mud by tying her lead rope
onto the ball of a truck and Dragging her out of the mud. on the dry surface
we were able to pull her up but she was really shaky and weak. Her condition
was so bad I thought it would be best to put her down. but through the next
day her condition seemed to improve and I changed my mind about putting her
down. Over the next few days I discovered she also had blood in her urine so
I knew she needed to see a vet right away. The next day a vet named Kelly
Turner from Oakland came out and looked her over. He said that the blood in
her urine was just a bladder infection, and her hips were probably a birth
defect or an injury that she would probably live with for the rest of her
life. I asked him if she should be put down and he said no it was not that
bad. Well he gave me medicine for her bladder infection, and I am still
treating her for that infection, but I am pretty sure it is gone, she just
has a few more days of treatment left. I had scheduled a different vet to
come out before I had scheduled Turner, but they weren't able to get their
till April 4th, so I used Turner and meant to cancel them. I forgot to
cancel them, they were from Gretna. He had already drove out to Crescent to
see Riley so I figured I would get his opinion on her hips because she was
still going down with out the ability to get up. He looked at her and said
she probably broke her hip when she was real young and it healed wrong and
now she has arthritis in the joints. He told me I should send her to a kill
lot so "she can have a meaning for her life" and that she would live for
another 15 years, but it would be cruel if I kept her alive. So here I am
unable to give up on that horse, because she still seems to have a will to
live, and if she hasn't given up on herself why should I. But I can't keep
her because my Uncle Pete doesn't agree with my thinking, and wants me to
put her down, or she has to leave his land.
So I have no where to put her, and she needs medical attention. I love that
horse more than anything in this world, that is why I can't put her down
without knowing for sure there is nothing that can be done to help her. And
why I am willing to let her go to someone else to provide her with what she
really needs.
Thank you very much for your time and concern
Christina
The yellow spots are just an ointment, she got a few scraps from a fence a
few days ago when she went down.
GSD needs Medical Help ASAP!
March 28 2007 at 10:56 PM
Available for a limited time at the Paulding County Shelter.
One male mix breed, medium size brown, was left with a rope tied to his neck at the front door out of the pound. He is a sweet dog and has some major wound on his neck area and beside the snout. It appears he was attacked by another animal. These wounds are old and there is massive infection.
The pound is keeping him as comfortable as they can. We have him on pain meds and antibiotics. I dont think the antibiotics is going to help much - I think the wounds may need opened and drained. This is just a guess.
The DW knows I am working on rescue for him. He will not get adopted locally.
Can anyone help him?
Pull fee is $25 and no vetting is done. I can get him to a vet and can transport one hour in any direction.
Pull fee has been offe red to rescue that takes him
Any takers?

BREAKING NEWS: Plastics Chemical Found In Recalled Pet Food
FDA: Plastics Chemical In Recalled Pet Food
The FDA says it knows what got into pet food that killed pets.

Chemical From Plastic Found In Pet Food
PETA Calls For Expanded Recall
UPDATED: 2:03 pm EDT March 30, 2007
RICHMOND, Va. - Government testing of recalled pet food linked to
dog and cat deaths has found a chemical used to make plastics.
The Food and Drug Administration said it found melamine in samples
of the Menu Foods pet food, as well as in wheat gluten used as an
ingredient.
Cornell University scientists also have found the chemical, also
used as a fertilizer, in the urine and kidney of a sick cat.
Earlier results from a lab in New York had blamed a rodent poison
and cancer drug called aminopterin for the deaths.
PETA Wants Bigger Recall
Meanwhile, some animal rights advocates say a pet-food recall does
not go far enough.
The group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals called on the
government and pet food makers to expand the recall to include dry
varieties, too.
Nearly 100 brands of pet food were recalled after animals suffered
kidney failure. The recall involved "cuts and gravy" style dog and
cat food. Some major brands, including Iams, Nutro and Eukanuba,
were involved.
The Food and Drug Administration said it has no plans to suggest a
wider recall and veterinarians said they've seen no trend of dogs
and cats getting sick from eating dry food.

It says these to are heartworm positive but they think it should read
heartworm negative. The shelter manager is not there for them to verify.
My name is Jeri Holloway, Shreveport, La., 318-869-2157. I work with local
rescue groups and the pound, a kill shelter, to find places of safe haven
for purebreds at risk of having to be destroyed.
These two miniature schnauzers have been at the pound since Feb. Several
places I wrote then replied back, oh these aren't minis; write the standard
folks; the standards did the same, these aren't standards. (after photos
were sent) I knew they were minis and I finally have measurements and
weights. I pray you will be able to help them.
Tish is a white mini schnauzer, heartworm positive, housebroken, blind,
deaf, and sweet as all get out, around 13 years old. Their coats are clipped
and clean. She is 12 1/2 inches tall and weighs 13 lbs.
Precious is black, heartworm positive, housebroken, 10 years old. She stands
14 inches tall and weighs a chunky 17 lbs. She is so friendly and loving.
Both were brought in by owners; one because they got a new dog, so out with
the old. The other because the dog was just too old to keep any longer.
They are now caged together and get along just great. But they are still
wonderful little dogs that deserve to live out their lives with schnauzer
folks who will love and adore them. When I took the new photos yesterday,
they trotted down the hallways just big as you please. Tish is very mellow,
she doesn't jump with fear due to her blindness and deafness. They are
absolutely adorable.
There is a person in Shreveport who is willing to pay their travel expenses
to send them to wherever we can find for them to settle in.
The kennel manager at Caddo Animal Services, Shreveport, where they are, is
Annette Lewis, 318-226-6624. If you need additional information call her and
if she is not there, ask for Avery. (Annette's son was in a tragic auto
crash and she has been spending most of her time at the hospital since last
week, he is in critical condition.) That is why you may not be able to reach
her, thus Avery should be able to help you. If you call, please tell them
that Jeri sent you the photos of the dogs and contacted you.
If you are unable to help these two babies, could you refer me to anyone
else who might?
I pray you can help them, especially since they have been at the pound so
long now. When I first met them in Feb. and took photos, Precious was quiet
then after I began petting her, she began wagging her little tail and
rubbing her head in my chest. This is so hard for little dogs that have been
in homes all their lives to suddenly be in a pound in a cage with so many
strange smells and noises.
Will send photos too. Copy to Houston also.

Please Crosspost!! Poor Cat needs a second chance!!
My name is PHILLY. I am a very special kitten. I am a female, just about one
year old. I'm long haired, all black and very loving. When I was brought to
the shelter I had something tied so tight around my front leg that it had to
be amputated. The vet did an excellent job with the surgery and once the
hair
grows back you will never be able to tell that I wasn't born this way. I am
getting around very well and other wise I am in perfect health. I have
already been spayed and vaccinated. Won't you be that special person to give
me a
wonderful life? I need a second chance.. please show me NOT all humans are
rotten!!

please.. pass my info on to all others! Thanks, Love Philly!!
I have 2 pit bull puppies looking for GOOD homes. Vet check and home
visit will be required! Both dogs are fully vetted and ready to go.
Red is about 6 months old, maybe a little younger, and is a petite
little guy. He loves people and kids, and thus far dogs. He has a
high prey drive, though, so I would be wary with cats. He will stay
in his crate, but he hates it. He is mostly housebroken, and knows
some manners. He needs to be kept occupied, but will make a great dog
for an active family.
Beethoven is 6 months old and is deaf, but that doesn't slow him down
any. He has THE BEST temperament ever, and loves everyone and
everything. He adores kids, but since he's so big, they don't like it
when they get knocked over by him. He is learning hand signals, is
crate trained, and walks well on a leash. He does pretty good on
pottying outside, but he is not left loose in the house for long
periods of time.
I am asking $75 adoption fees to try to recoup some of the money I
have into their vet care. I can be reached at
nicolejmilligan@yahoo.com You can also e-mail me for pics.
