" We are going to post a list of Kennels, Newspaper ads, and Vets, puppy find, etc., that we will be looking for volunteers to Pick an area and take that newspaper, or Shelter on in the area of their choice, on a daily basis if possible, that could be in their area or outside the area, as with our computers we can pull up a Newspaper from anywhere, and look at the adds and do a lot of checking." I am pleased you posted this because late last night I found a very comprehensive list of animal shelters throughout California. However, not being a Cali' native, I am kind of fuzzy on the geography, which city is in what county/ close to another etc. This may also be true for those helping out that are in other states.
So, what I am asking for on behalf of all of us location-confused members, is a list of cities/counties that are adjacent to the Modesto area. The only one I am aware of is Tracy, because of the whole WalMart connection.
Here is the webpage containing the list: http://www.animalshelter.org/shelters/California.asp
I too, hope that the hiring of a detective is feasible. It just seems that the police's effort is minimal, at best. You make a good point about a Yorkie looking older, when it has not been groomed in a while. I know that when my 12 year old Spanky comes back from the groomers, she definitely looks a lot younger than she is. A disshevelled Zeke could definitely be mistaken for an older dog. I think it is a great pity that Maureen could not view the footage outside Walmart herself.
I also had similar doubts about this "disappearing" blond lady, for the exact same reason you did. If she was employed by this Paula, how come there was no information/no address.... that this so-called employer had on her employee???? |
I agree, I agree, I so agree!!!!! It was a lousy investigation to say the least! I gave the police officer her name and address, I don't know why he could not go to her house!
I just got the WORST NEWS from Maureen, the administration will not allow us to post an address to get funds from members on The Yorkie Talk Forum, I know their are a lot of people wanting to donate, however it can not be done on this site.
I am sooooo bummed, and so is Maureen, I thought if we got enough money we could hire the PI, or do a 1/2 page add in the paper. Now another road block, that I don't know how to get around.
I wonder if the people who want to make a donation could PM Maureen, and she could PM them the acct. number and address of the Bank. Any ideas on how to collect donations without going against the rules of the forum. Gosh I had no Idea that we could no do this. I wish they would have contacted us in the beginning when we were talking about it. It would not have gone so far and we would have come up with something else.
I'm with you about the Calif. area, I think we need a detailed Map of Modesto and the surrounding area. One was posted, but I can't find it again, and i have asked the members if they remember who posted it, and what the number of the post is.
I don't know where the time goes, but I have to get ready to cook for my husband and get my babies to bed. I will email after everyone is put to bed.
You are a mind reader, thank you so much for the Calif. Shelters!!!! As usual you are on it the second it is mentioned!!! You blow me away girl!!!!!! If you were in Colorado I would have hired you in a minute for my business!!!!!!!!! What do you do for a living? It must have something to do with computer research!!!!! I've never seen anyone like you that is so on top of working with computers!!!!!
