Please forward this to all your friends...

Hi, my name is Ruby Smith, volunteer with the Humane Society of West
Louisiana! We are fielding THOUSANDS of calls from people affected by
Hurricane Katrina because we are the closest Humane Society with a
working telephone! (approximately 4 hours west of New Orleans in
Rosepine, LA)

We are doing all we can but have one big problem. SPACE!
We are taking as many strays from the area as possible but are having
hard time finding room for the family owned pets that are having to be
given up! These are people who have NO choice but to give up their
beloved pets due to this catastrophe. We are looking for help
from "Breed Specific Rescues", or anyone, to find homes for these
babies!

Currently, this is just an example of our purebred hurricane victim
dogs, who have all been very well behaved, but will be euthanized if
homes are not found.... soon!! We just don't have SPACE!!!!!!!!!!!

------ 3yo Husky, very sweet, getting very depressed, is eating
less and less
------- 7yo Pomeranian, won't stop shaking unless being held
------- ? yo Poodle, just adorable, but shivering and very difficult
to get out of cage
------- 1yo+ Collie, won't stop crying, unless being held
------- 4yo Cocker Spaniel, very cute, very, very upset.

Of course, we have an abundance of "mutts" that are just as deserving
of a loving and safe home... . If you know anyone who can
foster/rescue these loving animals, or any other rescue group who are
willing to help out - please contact the Humane Society of West
Louisiana! It is likely that we will be getting more and more calls
from owners who are having to make the choice of surrendering their
pets, but we just do not have the room for them!
Thank you So much!!

Please, continue to pray for the victims of Katrina, both human and
pets!

I saw the video and boy is it heartbreaking. My husband walked out of the room, he couldn't finish watching it, TOO SAD.

Thanks Melisa(Annadoodle) for posting for me! I appreciate your help so much!
I am just such a retard when it comes to these tech issues

Just wanted to put it out there for all my YT friends who may want another doggy, or may know someone who does. I just feel awful about the poor doggy victims and I know many of us do too.

I wish we could help from so far away. Do they ship dogs to NY?

Or to Seattle?
