This week we took in 87 dogs and cats from our local shelters and were ready to pass out from exhaustion for the weekend. But as we all know in animal welfare - planning to rest simply doesn't exist! Dekalb Animal Control in Alabama had 21 pups dumped on them this afternoon, leaving them completely overwhelmed and in desperate need of help. With limited kennel space remaining - we were only able to accommodate 11 puppies at the Rescue Center. In a moment of desperation, we reached out to our friends at Greater Huntsville Humane Society (GHHS), A New Leash on Life, and Rocket City Rescue to see if they could help with any of the remaining ten puppies. Without hesitation, all three groups responded that each could take some puppies into their program, allowing us to move fifteen out of Dekalb this evening and the remaining six pups tomorrow. To have fellow rescue partners who are willing to collaborate, support one another, and put the animals needs first is such a beautiful thing and not always seen in the animal welfare community. We are SO grateful to everyone at GHHS, ANLOL and RCR for their compassion and urgency in times of need. While Alabama has some of the worst problems when it comes to how our communities care (or don't care) for their animals, we are blessed to have some seriously incredible rescue groups constantly cleaning up these messes. The animals would be in such a terrible predicament if it weren't for rescue groups like these. Get ready to see some new puppies coming soon!
