We rescued 8 more small dogs from the Camarillo shelter this morning and they are now on their way to a safe, no kill shelter near Boston where their forever homes await them (6 chihuahuas, a pom and a Scottie).
Thanks to generous donors, Tiny Loving Canines, the Peppy Foundation, and with the help of Kinder4Rescue, small dogs at the shelter have now received a "reprieve" from the euthanasia lists made necessary by the chronic overpopulation at the shelter.
Working together, we were able to demonstrate a commitment to these little ones and, seeing that, the shelter agreed to hold small dogs off their euth. lists...hoping we can keep up the good work. The "team" has been able to do what none of us alone could have...and if there were more hands on deck, we could save even more dogs and cats.
But, it's a start...a good start...and it shows how a "coalition" of animal rescuers can achieve great things, without taking away from their individual identity and purpose. Won't YOU... "Come to P.A.P.A."...and lend your support and resources for "the greater good"?...
Stay tuned as new and exciting transport options come on line, as well as the programs designed for longer term results. If we do not work toward a no kill shelter now, exactly when will a better time come? And if those reading this blog are not on board, who can be expected to step up?
Now is the time, and we are the people.
