I am going to put him into boarding in Tenn. until I get the transport for him to Kristi's. He is a neutered male, NO aggression issues, has had all appropriate vacc's including bordatella. Will be HW tested before he goes anywhere...I told the volunteer that I was sorry but if he was HW positive (even a light positive) he could not go to the foster home I had lined up. Going to put it on the list hoping for some donation money. His pull fee was paid, so that was a help. There is another one who is going down on Wednesday for sure if no one takes her. Sandi Card said she would take her (dont know how seeing as its a 12 hr ride for her) if no one did...another situation where we COULD board, but for how long! I can get this dog to Kristis, so I know this will be short term....but then I am out of places to stash someone. I cannot afford to pay for board for dogs in other states...we need that pool of money from the GSDCA members! If everyone would just donate a few dollars a month, we would be GOLDEN! Dawn this was a private post to me but I felt it needed to be shared. Hope Dawn doesn't mind Dawn's soooooo accurate. A few dollars a month from each of the folks on this list who can afford a few - which would be most everyone I think - even if it's just $2, would make a tremendous fund for saving GSDs. Maybe what we need to do is take someone we all trust explicitly ( My nomination would go to Dave Fritsche but I'm sure we have many suitable people), make them the List Rescue Treasuerer, have them receive and bank the monies, giving us a monthly report on the list and sending funds out as requested by Dawn who could be our rescue funds coordinator. I'll bet before long we could even have that GSD sanctuary well under way someplace centralized - or maybe even 2 - on on each side of the country. WE ARE A MIGHTY FORCE.
