Petitioning Stray animals used as shark bait Stray animals used as shark bait: Stop the horrific use of stray animals as shark bait

On the French-controlled island of Reunion, stray dogs and cats, both LIVE and dead, are being used as shark bait. Large hooks are plunged into their noses and/or paws, and they are then tossed into the ocean to draw sharks. Please sign this petition to stop this barbaric practice!

Aren't we just as cute as can be? We all have rescues to go to but since the shelter is full we are still in danger; plus while we are here waiting on fosters we are taking up kennel space thus putting our friends at risk. Fostering saves lives, please take us home with you for a short time till we can go on to our rescues.

Safe Haven 19

The Animal Welfare Office tells us that the decision to kill the Safe Haven 19 was made by Board members Lofthouse and West. However, there is some evidence that Lynn Lofthouse did not even know the dogs had been killed on Nov. 13. To me, it looks like ASPCA and the Animal Welfare Office were involved in that decision, but not the Safe Haven Board. Believe me, I am not trying to clear the name of Lynn Lofthouse. But we need to know who made the decision so that we know whom to hold accountable.

I am thankful

I am thankful for all the rescuers and shelter staff who refuse to reach for the needle, but instead reach for baby bottles to feed the orphans, medicines to heal the sick, cameras to photograph animals for adoption.

I am thankful for all the No Kill advocates with a deep and abiding love for animals and a “can do” attitude; people who refuse to follow self-proclaimed leaders when the path they advocate leads to the landfill and who have dedicated themselves, in ways great and small, to helping bring it to an end.

I am thankful for all the people who keep leashes in their cars for wayward dogs, who feed neighborhood cats, who never pass up an opportunity to help an animal in need.

I am thankful for people like YOU. Together, not only will we save lives; but we will create a future where every animal will be respected and cherished, and where every individual life will be protected and revered.

And here are another 2 Safe Haven dogs adopted out earlier this month that may end up in a Baltimore shelter because of an eviction

Poor Helen. This blind dog was one at Safe Haven for a while. Her guiding eye partner was adopted, and left Helen alone at the kennel.

Poor Helen. This blind dog was one at Safe Haven for a while. Her guiding eye partner was adopted, and left Helen alone at the kennel. Helen was adopted into a couple of homes after this, but her luck was not with her to find a forever placement.

On October 14, 2013 Officer Lewis responded to a call for a holding stray dog. When he arrived Kathy Gove stated that this dog showed up and she contained the dog in an kennel. When the dog was scanned it was found that she had a microchip, and that the Gove family had adopted the dog.

Kathy Gove was arrested and charged with a violation of Christophers Law Title 11. Chapter 1325. Illegally signing over an animal.

Helen is now available for adoption into a forever home. Lets hope someone adopts her forever this time.

Sweet, beautiful Nezra is having a rough go of things right now

Sweet, beautiful Nezra is having a rough go of things right now. Her life has been full of ups and downs. She found herself a heartbroken prisoner in a cold, lonely cell at the dog pound where even being able to hear the other dogs didn't make her any less lonely, but was taken in to foster by a wonderful lady hoping to help save her life. This wonderful lady, who has been a huge help to many Altus fur-babies, became her new foster mama. Her foster mama (how normally chooses to cover vetting of her foster), wanting to do the right thing, took Nezra to the vet to have her spayed. Unfortunately, what should have been a routine surgery hit a snag when complications arose from Nezra having two tick borne illnesses that changed the way her blood clotted and kept her from healing properly. Like any good pet parent, Nezra's foster mama wants to give Nezra every chance to win this battle and Nezra seems determined to pull through. It was very touch and go for awhile, and she's still not out of the woods by any means, but she's a fighter. One look into those big, beautiful eyes of hers and you can see she isn't ready to give up. She's found a place to go at last and she wants to stick around to go to it! That's the good news. The bad news is, while she seems to be getting better, the bills are mounting up. Anyone who has ever had to pay for life-saving emergency care for their pet knows how quickly it can reach the point where you start to worry if you can afford to pay for the care they need to survive or if it's time to consider the unthinkable. No pet parent or foster should ever have to make a choice like that. Money should never be the deciding factor when looking into the hopeful eyes of a beloved pet who is fighting so hard to stay strong for you, all the while trusting you will take care of them. They don't understand all the needles, bandages and weird smells at the vet, but they know that YOU are there and that you wouldn't put them in harm's way. Nezra has remained loving and trusting through it all and we want to help her foster mama afford the care she needs. If you can spare even a dollar or two, it is very much appreciated not only by us, but by Nezra and her foster mama!

As of Saturday the total for Nezra was over $1,200 and expected to be closer to $2,000. We will update with scans of the invoices and the actual total when we get them.
