"Where are the "animal activists" when you need them?" "animal activists" - you didn't really mean to say that, did you? I would be extremely surprised if a GSD rescue isn't involved in this already. You said you "could get behind an orginization that helped the animals" Lots out there!! Start with your local GSD or all breed rescue. Check them out, and then start volunteering. Foster, and if you can't do that then perhaps you would be good at doing home checks, or just simply walking some dogs....or if you have no time for that, slip by and donate blankets, toys, food, funds for meds and vet bills, donate the funds from garage sales, donate your used computers, printers, scanners to private rescues........the list goes on. Make the effort and ask them what they need! Lend a paw up! GSD0110@xxxxxxx wrote: Where are the "animal activists" when you need them? I could get behind an organization that helped the animals that really need help. Some people are just evil.... they aren't sick because sick people need help..... they are just evil and should be dealt with that way. Gary The only way to understand & estimate the nature of the dog is to study his whole development. Such a task requires a sympathetic, dog-loving observer, who tries as far as possible to enter into the innermost mind of the dog, and who will know how to short-circuit all his purely human points of view. --Max von Stephanitz --------------------------------- Post your free ad now!
