I encourage each of you that may be skeptical to call the Monroe County animal shelter at 423-442-1015. Ask for Vickie. She's the one in charge of working with the rescue groups but anyone that answers can probably tell you that there's no laws in place here to protect animals.
You guys from Michigan should know how rural most of these places are since half the state of Michigan is in Tennessee in the summer time. |
Wel, I'm not so sure that near half the State of Michigan is there over the summer, 90% of the people I know go up North, and as for me, I go to New York, which leaves 9% that might go to Tenn. maybe? but that has nothing to do with the puppies, and from what you are saying, we give $$, they resuce the pups, then the mom goes in heat again say in 3 more months or less (that would be 6 months minus the pregancy time and the 6 weeks or so since the pups were born, then she has another litter, then we donate again, then she has more, then we donate again. There HAS to be another avenue. Going in circles is not going to stop this person who doesn't seem to care about anything living. Someone has the answer, if not the Monroe Animal Shelter, then higher up. It is time this type of thing gets someone's attention. Our government has laws, they protect everyone, including those living in rural areas I would think.
