Are our Regional Clubs behind what Last Hope Safe Haven is trying to 
accomplish or do you want to bury your head in the sand that what Vicki 
experienced yesterday getting an old "throwaway" GSD doesn't happen?

I heard Vicki sobbing when she left the pound....on the phone it was hard to 
console her....talk about feeling helpless !!!  But another GSD heart 
continues to beat through her tears.  Tomorrow two more GSDs are coming into 
Safe Haven/SPARRO protection.  We need foster homes.

I sent out a plea locally for fostering in Pittsburgh to GSD people and have 
been told by two regional club members to "take them off my rescue list". 
We all love the beautiful conformation/show/working dogs but that is not all 
that we, as breeders and exhibitors, should concern ourselves with all the 
time.  Remember, one of the dogs or puppies we rescue just may be one you 
have bred.

I would ask all Regional Clubs in the Parent Club Roster to let us know with 
a quick email (either Dawn or myself) if you are supporting us in this 
endeavor (and it doesn't have to always be about money).  Thank you for 
listening to us....but it is ALL ABOUT THE DOG !!
