OR, if you're a small dog rescue do you have room for these three old sweeties whose dog parent is in the hospital and they were given to Bay County Animal Control. The BCAC is desperate for a foster home until we get them into a rescue group. They are confused and unhappy and don't know why they're there.
It is crowded and noisy - a large facility.
It would be cruel to break them up at their advanced age. It is also cruel to think that just that because they are old, and one is compromised, that no one will take them home to love, unless we get them into a rescue organization. Can you help?
So if you can find the space, the time and the love it takes to foster three sweet dogs who of course, are small, please contact Bay County Animal Control, 850-767-3333

NEED A COMPANION? ADOPT ONE WHO IS SPECIAL...IT'S LESS ADOPTABLE PET WEEK!
http://www.petfinder.com/promotions/less-adoptable-pet-week?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=september2011
Black dogs and cats, old ones, the plain janes, the ones with special needs - like blindness, tripods, chronic disease, maybe a recent injury that needs healing and care with a special person like you...they are at your shelters and animal controls and they are waiting for you.
They are waiting for you because they need you and in return they will give you unconditional love for their lifetime. Why are you waiting?
My Granny Annie is looking down from the Rainbow Bridge telling me we needed each other.
She was right. She was an ugly, old, three-legged lady,partially deaf, partially blind Boston with a heart of gold. She gave me her unflagging good humor and undying love for a year and a half.
It was the right decision. She was joy.

Ginger and Louie need a home stat in the southeast

This is enough to break your heart.
The idea pet and animal sanctuaries are on hard economic times is enough to break your heart.
These two are very elderly, as you will see. So please, if you can, take care of them until you send them to the Rainbow Bridge. It won't be long.
If you read about my Granny Annie, who is an ancient, overweight, three-legged Boston Terrier whom I rescued from the local animal control, you know how I love her. These two will do the same for you and you will be so grateful that you gave them a good life until the end. It does something to the inside of you. Their comfort and pleasure is returned to you a hundredfold.

HUNGRY HOWIE - A MODERN DAY MIRACLE FOR DOG LOVERS EVERYWHERE











BUT THAT WAS THEN - AND THANK GOD FOR HIS GUARDIAN ANGELS, JIM AND DEBBIE THOMAS WHO FOUND HIM AND TOOK HIM TO THIS SHELTER. THEY WERE VACATIONING, AND I KNOW JIM FROM JPG MAGAZINE. THEY VOLUNTEER AT A LOCAL ANIMAL SHELTER IN MARYLAND.
The following was a flyer I couldn't convert here. There are astounding AFTER photos I want you to see, but I can't convert them from the pdf, either, so you will have to wait. Check back to see what he looks like today!
You will not believe your eyes. Howie is now "Handsome Howie". A little weight is needed, but he's glossy, healthy and he will be getting his heartworm treatment shortly. Then he will be ready for adoption.
This is Howie NOW!
Do you have enough love in your heart to give this special, courageous dog, a loving home forever?
If you do, contact the shelter.
Help Howie!
I AM CONTACTING YOU ON BEHALF OF AN EMACIATED STRAY NAMED HOWIE WHO WAS BROUGHT INTO OUR SHELTER BY TWO GUARDIAN ANGELS & NOW NEEDS YOUR HELP TO COMPLETE HIS JOURNEY!
HOWIE DESPERATELY NEEDS YOUR HELP!
Hungry Howie’s life was changed the day two very special humans were out enjoying a sunny Florida day and happened upon him- literally starving TO DEATH! Howie was emaciated, weak, starving, and barely clinging to life. Without the intervention of these two very special people Howie’s life would have ended that day- in great agony and pain!
Although shelter resources were stretched and space was limited, Howie’s fight for
survival motivated staff and volunteers to do all possible to help Howie hang on!
IN HOWIE’S CASE, WE KNEW IT WAS ONLY RIGHT TO GIVE HIM A CHANCE TO
LIVE THE REST OF HIS LIFE. “HE IS BEAUTIFUL AND LOVING AND
HAS SUCH A FIGHTING SPIRIT!!”
After many, many long weeks of extensive care, love & affection, Handsome Howie is now ready to begin the next stage of his new life. Howie has received consistent socialization, has been brought current on all vaccinations and has received initial medical care.
HOWIE NOW NEEDS YOUR HELP!!
HOWIE IS IN NEED OF A HEARTWORM SPONSOR SO THAT HE CAN RECEIVE THE HEARTWORM TREATMENT NEEDED TO CURE HIM OF THIS LIFE THREATENING DISEASE!
HOWIE IS ALSO IN NEED OF A NEW “FOREVER HOME” WHERE HE CAN LIVE OUT THE REST OF HIS LIFE WITH ALL THE LOVE, AFFECTION & CARE HE WILL EVER NEED!
If you are able to help or if you are interested in adopting Howie, please contact Melody with the St. Joseph Bay Humane Society at 850-227-1103 or directly at 850-227-8652 or by email at
townsend.hsdirector@gmail.com.
Thank you so much for your assistance & a very special thanks to Jim & Debbie Thomas, who without their intervention, Howie would never have had a chance!
