The Leland Mississippi Shelter is in such dire need that Jamie and I have decided to make an emergency run from Rushville Indiana to Leland Mississippi. The United States Animal Protection, a national animal rights group is helping with the van, vaccines and more, the volunteer's at ARRF are giving us a place to stay overnight and chipping in towards gas. The situationuppies have been freezing to death outside, rats are eating the dog food, sewage backs up into the shelter. The City of Leland owns the building but will not even provide food for the animals. The 4 volunteers have exhausted themselves physically and financially. In addition to the shelter being overflowing, a hoarder is willing to give up the 42 dogs he has. Leland is in dire circumstances! We will carry dog food, vaccines, tools to make necessary shelter repairs and provide womanpower to coordinate a weekend rescue effort. We will also be documenting the conditions at the shelter and the many starving strays in Leland.

If you are a rescue and are willing to take some of the Leland dogs, please message Gabby or email Linda at ubenframed@cinci.rr.com. We are also working to coordinate with rescues along our route home in hopes that we can find safety for the left over animals. We will be traveling through Cincinnati OH, Louisville KY, Bowling Green KY, Nashville TN, Memphis TN, Leland MS. Interstates I61, I40,I65. We leave for Leland on Friday March 28 and return early on March 31th. To see the conditions at the shelter visit www.arrf-arrf-org

We are raising money to help with the cost of the van rental, gas money, supplies, vaccines etc. Any cash left over will be given to the voluteers at ARRF who take care of the dogs at this destitute shelter. Where chipin logo doesn't work you can donate thru paypal: ubenframed@cinci.rr.com ( I realize the irony of the email but it is a take on my business name, custom framing!) Thank you,

All of the animals on this bulletin are located in Warner Robins GA. They have all been abandoned at a boarding and grooming business after their owners never came back or refused to come back to get them. The Boarding facility asked me to help see if I could not find these sweat animals forever homes. Some of them have been staying at the business for over three years. None of these animals should live their lives inside these cages!

Please contact me if you would like any other info on these animals, or if you are interested in adopting.

I have a transport that is available from Ga all the way up the east coast to Maine if needed. Please help these poor animals find loving homes REPOST!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!All animals are up to date on shots and have been fully vetted!!!!!!!!!!!!!

___________________________________________________________
Kalib-
Has lived at the boarding and grooming business for over 1 year.

Male Terrier Mix
under 2yrs in age
Already Neutered

Kalib has a very good temperament, he has a kennel mate who he is best friends with. He gets along with cats and dogs. Kalib has been adopted out 2 times from the boarding and grooming business before, but has always been brought back, because he IS a runner. He is very energetic, and playful. Would make a great family pet or single person family very happy!

He is very excitable and loves to run and play. He ran up to me and kissed me all over as soon as he saw me. He is also potty trained. Would make a great family pet or single person family very happy! I think he would be great for school aged children to play with!

Shaba + Calyle
Have been living at boarding facility since February of this year.

These two came from the same owner and have been housed together the whole time that they have been living at the facility. A forever home that they could go to together is needed for these boys. They are both very beautiful and very loving. Shaba is VERY loving all he wants to to rub your legs and have you cuddle him. Cayle is a typical cat. He is affectionate, however he prefers his humans to give most of the affection while he just lays back and relaxes.

Shaba-

Described as overly loving for a cat, and VERY SWEET

New release in PETA!
http://www.peta.org/MC/NewsItem.asp?id=9433


Online Video Shows Soldiers’ Throwing Rocks, Laughing at Seriously Injured Dog


For Immediate Release:
January 17, 2007



Contact:
David Perle 757-622-7382  


Baghdad — A disturbing video allegedly taken from a CD found in Baghdad’s Green Zone apparently shows American soldiers’ throwing rocks at a crippled dog and laughing as the dog hobbles away on two legs. "That is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life," one person is heard saying. "You wanna go over and kill it?" asks another. The identities of the soldiers shown in the video footage are unknown, which is why PETA is offering as much as $5,000 for information identifying and locating the men involved.


Pointing out that all cruelty-to-animals cases—even those that take place in a war zone—must be taken seriously, PETA is calling for a criminal investigation into the incident and for those responsible to be court-martialed if they are found to be in the military.


According to leading mental health professionals and law enforcement agencies, perpetrators of violent acts against animals are often repeat offenders who pose a serious threat to humans and other animals. Steven D. Green, the former soldier accused of orchestrating the murder of a 14-year-old Iraqi girl and her family, had previously set a puppy on fire and threw the animal off a roof, according to testimony at his alleged coconspirators’ court-martial hearing.


"The men in this video are a disgrace to their unit and to their country," says PETA Foundation staffer William Rivas-Rivas, a former Navy officer and a Persian Gulf veteran. "They are cowards, taking their aggression out on the most defenseless being available to them. The ‘best of the best’ don’t behave like cruel, bullying thugs."


Anyone with information about this case is encouraged to contact PETA’s Domestic Animal Abuse department at DAWR&I--PETA@peta.org or 757-622-7382 , extension 8037.


Video footage of the incident can be viewed at http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=6445f9fdd7. For more information, please visit HelpingAnimals.com.
