You continue to amaze me with your efforts! As a member of YHR I have helped plenty of other rescues both with my time, efforts and even donations when needed. For instance when OKYR has that poor little girl just recently with the tumor in her mouth I think just about everyone donated to that as well~she needed medical attention and as a group we wanted to see it happen. I also donated to YTNR and YorkiesInc to help in the past. Then there was the rescue that was doing a transport and a dog pulled out of its collar and bolted. I looked for her for 4 days, put up flyers, make phone calls to help by myself since the rescue was from Southern IL . When word got around it was amazing how everyone stepped up to help look for her. You see it didn't matter that she was not from "my rescue" she didn't know the difference. To me what matters is it to make a difference even if it is in a small way to help and when all the generous members step up for all the rescues that are there to help it what matters. As I am sure you know from your experiences with rescue, there are different levels of rehoming and it is dependent upon foster homes, number of dog taken in, medical issues, applications received......but of course you would know this with your current involvement with your rescue work
I was just wondering if the Yorkie rescue that you donate to is also a member here? If they are placing 300 dogs in a year I bet they have a great number of foster homes and we get emails every day looking for help. That is amazing and I for one would love to be hooked up with a contact. Can I use you?
