Please, I address this to everyone here, mostly to those from USA, California, just please join me in helping this angel. It brought me to tears, I can't believe the cruelty, I can't believe it... i can't believe it. A puppy, she's a 11 years old girl, was turned in by her owners to be killed because...... she's too old. Yes.. as unbelievable as it might sound. Please help me to help her. Sweet little soul. It brought me to tears. Animals are gifts of the nature, we have to CARE! Please! Somebody has to take her out of there until they kill her, please... for God's sake. I'm at worlds distance from there!

God help this little angel be taken by someone who will deserve her...
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
Thank you. I don't know, it left me speechless. I don't know how can such a thing be legal.. how can this be happening.
I actually have seen some TV program on animal rescue services in US, and I think they said that once they do not get a dog or cat adopted for some time, the animal is being put into sleep. So, sadly it might be possible. Cruel world. <!-- s:( -->:(<!-- s:( -->
Pls, search in twitter all the rescue centers from the area.
The person who abandoned that angel should never ever be allowed to have another animal in possesion, never <!-- s:x -->:x<!-- s:x -->
If I lived over there I would safe her and give her a wonderfull old day.
Hopefully it will help now the message is spread on the web ... <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) -->
Souza - It depends on what kind of shelter the animal is left at. Some shelters in the US are "no-kill" facilities and will keep animals until they are adopted. However, unfortunately most shelters are not no-kill facilities and animals are eventually put down if they are not adopted. The length of time a shelter will keep an animal varies by shelter and space in the shelter. If the shelter has the space and means to support an animal for a lengthy amount of time, they will, but many shelters simply don't have the space or money. Unfortunately there are just too many irresponsible and/or heartless people who don't properly care for their pets and just dump them off somewhere.
One of my dogs is a stray that someone dumped off. I have had him for 4 years now, and just found out this past summer, to my horror, that he had been shot sometime in the past. I had to have him x-rayed because of a massive welt that developed under his chin (evidently he had been bitten by a snake and it was infected), and the x-ray showed a pellet embedded in his chest area. I don't know if it was just a pellet gun shot or a shotgun shot because the x-ray was cut off right next to the pellet and didn't capture much of the chest area. Now I understand why he is morbidly afraid of gun shots, fireworks and thunder. He's my little survivor!
One of my friends rescued his dog this way (he got him from a shelter where the dog was about to be put to sleep), and it´s just the cutest dog ever!
Some shelters don't do that, but the biggest one, who are surrounded with abandonned pets are OBLIGED to make decision...MILLIONS of cats and dogs are killed in shelter every years in the world, because they are too old, or too big, or because noone ever watched them, or just because the shelter has a limited space and must give chance to other mistreated pets that are also waiting to be rescued...
Hopefully we decided not to do this in our organisation, because we can afford to, but some shelters are very crowded.
People in US should spread this on facebook or twitter so this dog can be taken from there and transfered to another shelter who don't kill or maybe adopted. If the shelter is ok, this dog can be transfered to another part of the country. At least maybe the shelter can find her a shelter family so that they are not obliged to kill her anymore until she gets adopted.
Sadly all pets in shelter can be put in this killing list. young, old, healthy or not... A shelter is not "heaven" for pets. It's a center where people do there best to cope with other people cruelty...In my town, all kitten (BABIES) who are brought every summer are automatically killed, because there are too much of them being born every year and the shelter cannot afford to keep so many (not enough money, limited space, too litlle adoption, too little foster families...)
I adopted my dog from a shelter, she was 11 and found on street, i think the shelter would have killed her on the next list of "dogs to be killed to make space". She's wonderfull, very nice with everyone, very well educated, quiet... It's sad people always want baby pets because old ones are great too !
Do we have news about the doggie? The blogger did not update about the case.
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
I would take this angel home in a heartbeat if I were able. That being said, our shelters are overflowing here with animals that are either unwanted or "inconvenient" as well. We collect donated food for our local animal shelter at my workplace. I wish that I was able to do more. There are many wonderful volunteers here that offer their time to walk and exercise these dogs that have been abandoned and abused. They help by giving them some love and build their trust and confidence again.
Here's an idea where the media can do something positive for a change. In the past, when there has been a publicity drive to rehome animals in my city, the local paper runs stories and pics of the selected dogs and cats and livestock available needing urgent rehoming. The success rate for getting these babies into a good home is extremely high and has flow on effects to the other adoptees as many people applying for the same dog end up getting introduced to another one. It seems a shame to me that this media blitz only happens maybe once a year.
I thought of this and one friend of mine sent a dog to adoption via shipping in Germany. the problem I have with it is that I live in two rooms appartment and I have two cats. One of them is 13 y/o, she'll be 14 in February and she's highly sensitive at any new member. She doesn't get along with the other cat so far and bringing a dog here would cause her a heartattack <!-- s:( -->:(<!-- s:( --> The pain I feel is huge when I see an abbandoned helpless soul like this beautiful girl and I don't know what to do to help. I always said and I'll always keep saying that if I had the financial possibilities as well as Michael has, I'd absolutelly do the same as him. I would donate and support animal rescue centers all around the world.
Please everyone, spread it so maybe someone make decision to adopt her.
I bought it though, the other day;
You can't buy friendship, tried and true,
Well, just the same, I bought that too.
I made my bid and on the spot
Bought love and faith and a whole job lot
Of happiness, so all in all
The purchase price was pretty small.
I bought a single trusting heart
That gave devotion from the start.
If you think these things are not for sale,
Buy a brown eyed puppy with a stump for a tail. [author unknown]
You know if an organisation is ok to save her but have no place they can also put her on "vacation" in a private dog keeper. They make price per week or per month. It would give time to find a family. Some dog rescue shelter have no choice but to do this for dogs they cannot foster. Some people make donation to pay for it.
