Beautiful Purebred Shar Pei's

We Need your help ...... the Breed rescues for the Shar Peis have not been able to help.

I know one of our great rescue partners will step up to take in these two ?

Would be great if they could stay together ..... Males, maybe 2-4 years one may be younger. They stand quietly in the kennel watching the door for their owner to come in ... they never showed! They only have a few days before they are PTS, I can pull, but need a committment from a rescue that will take them. We can always work on Transportation. Super Urgent! Contact me ASAP ....

Lompoc CA: Wasco Puppy Update, Dogs Needing Homes

Update on Sasha, Wasco Puppy Thrown From Car
Several weeks ago we rescued Sasha - the little shepherd mix puppy with the mysterious leg injury at the Wasco shelter. X-rays revealed that both sides of her pelvic area were totally shattered. We cannot imagine how much this poor puppy suffered while her owners did nothing to treat her injury. . . She will need to have surgery to regain normal use of her hind quarters. After consulting 4 vets, the consensus is that Sasha needs a procedure called a Femural Head Ostectomy (FHO). Her prognosis is great and she is happy as can be in her foster home. Her foster family plans to adopt Sasha once she is available after her surgery. Thank you to everyone who cared about and supported Sasha.
Want to help other Wasco dogs like Sasha? The shelter is underfunded and in desperate need of food donations. Nature's Select is willing to provide their high quality food at cost for the Wasco shelter. You can call Rick at Nature's Select Premium Pet Foods in Bakersfield at 661-833-3180 where an account has been set up for Wasco and make a donation over the phone. The cost is 50 cents per pound. Please help!

Update on Pregnant Senior Dumped at Camarillo
Mama, the 11 yr old pregnant Shepherd mix that was dumped at Camarillo , is happily caring for her 2 puppies in a foster home and doing well. Her 2 male puppies, born in the shelter the day after she was dropped off, will not face the same hardship that their mom did.
"Twitter" and "Rover" are 6 weeks old now and are handsome, healthy puppies. They will be available for adoption in the coming weeks and are well on their way to a long and happy life.


We Need Your Help!
Shadow's Fund has incurred a very sizeable debt for medical care for our recent special needs rescues like Sasha and Mama & her puppies. Please consider making a contribution to help with our medical fund.


Urgently In Need of a Home . . . .

Lucky is a 10 yr old Great Pyrenees who was rescued several years ago from the shelter. Now, he finds himself once again needing a home. His mom is relocating out of state for graduate school and will not be able to afford to keep Lucky. He is a sensitive boy that is easily stressed so we are hoping to help him find a home right away, before his mom leaves to allow for a slow transition into his new home. We only have 3 weeks! He is good with other dogs and as since he is getting up there in age he is not too high energy. He has a thyroid condition that requires him to be on inexpensive medications. Please consider giving him a loving and forever home for the rest of his years.

Precious is a 13 yr old Staffie that was dumped at the shelter when her humans got divorced and neither wanted her. After an entire life with one family, she found herself left behind at the shelter. What's worse, her former family did not bother to socialize Precious with other dogs so she is not dog friendly. She is being fostered by Sh adow's Fund, but sadly spends most of her time alone since she cannot mix with our other dogs. This adorable little girl is the sweetest senior. She smiles when she sees you, and wants nothing more than to simply be in the same room as her person. She is low energy, healthy (though her old bones are pretty stiff) and a joy to be around. She loves to snuggle and give kisses. It breaks our heart to see her spend so much time alone when all she wants is to be close to someone. She would be a great companion for a retiree or someone who works from home.
Bo is a 2 yr old female German Shepherd that needs someone to care about her. She was recently hit by a car, fracturing her pelvis. Her family was either unable or unwilling to provide medical care for her so she was surrendered. Bo is now being treated by a caring local vet who will perform surgery on Bo. Her prognosis for a full recovery is great, but Bo is basically homeless now. After her surgery, she will need a caring family to open their home and hearts to her so that she has somewhere to go. She is young, sweet and healthy aside from her injury. After a little down time, Bo should heal just fine and be good as new and ready to start the rest of her life. Please give Bo the home she deserves.
If you would like to give one of these great dogs a home, please contact us right away.
Thank you for caring!

Subject: Reminder about G2 event - TODAY! (July 12)


Hello everybody,

I just wanted to remind you that the coolest event is happening today (July 12) from 12:00 - 4:00 P.M - The art exhibit "PAWS" continues at the G2 GALLERY, AND a dog/cat adoption event in the gallery!!! The South L.A shelter and the West L.A shelter will bring in dogs and cats, and we're hoping to have all the animals adopted so now one has to go back to the shelter.

Please invite all your friends and people who might be interested in adopting a pet (this is a great way to see the shelter animals without actually going to the shelter which many people don't like doing).

People who adopt a pet at the gallery will have their photo taken with their new pet so they will forever have a picture of "Day One with My New Pet".

For the gallery's address and all the event info, please click here: http://www.hopeforpaws.org/g2.html

Please forward this email to everybody you know (feel free to use email, facebook, myspace, twitter, blogs) - the most important goal is NOT to let any animal go back to the shelter.

Thank you!

Eldad

Van Nuys CA: Two friendly fixed senior HUSKIES in danger

Rescue them or forward their info if you can. Two Huskies in the East Valley shelter in the City of Los Angeles system. The male looks like he has a medical issue that needs attention; ask the shelter about it. Check their impound numbers in the database to see if they are alive and available. When I received this alert, there were three Huskies referenced but I cannot locate one of them in the database therefore s/he probably has either been rescued or put to death already; ask the shelter about it (A0643799 Loba). The contact is the shelter. ani.newhopeev@lacity.org is the email for the shelter; note phone numbers below.
the shelter says A1045601 RIVER is a neutered male, white and black Siberian Husky about 8 years old...if still alive and available, see his record here: http://tinyurl.com/lvh3pg

The Dog Cancer Ride Across America "Two"

Announcing: The Dog Cancer Ride Across America "TWO"


A Charity Fundraiser to Help Sick Dogs get the Cancer Care they Deserve...
From Portland, Oregon to Los Angeles, California
(July 1, 2009 - 1,329 miles - August 2, 2009)



Last summer, I rode my bicycle 4,231 miles from the Pacific to the Atlantic, to raise money to help dog owners pay for dog cancer care they couldn't otherwise afford...


The ride was a great success... We raised about $16,000, added over 150 dogs to our "Map of Heroes," and made a huge difference for dozens of dogs (and their owners) who needed our help to fight this cancer battle.


But as wonderful as it was, I know there's so much more we can do to help these dogs... My dream is to raise $100,000 for dog cancer charities - an amount that will make a huge difference for these dogs in need. So while I'm thrilled with everything we've accomplished, I know there's more work to do - and I can't stop riding until, together, we reach our goals.


Which is why this summer, I'm back on my bike, and back on the road, for The Dog Cancer Ride Across America TWO (the West Coast Swing) to make a difference in the life of these amazing dogs (and these amazing dog owners) who so desperately need our help. Won't you please join me...


This summer I'm riding my bicycle from Portland, Oregon (where my dog Marty the Wonderdog lost his life after a valiant 18-month battle with cancer) to Los Angeles, California (where Marty was born) - a 1,329 mile pilgrimage to honor his memory, promote dog cancer awareness, and raise money for 3 wonderful charities that help dog owners pay for dog cancer care they couldn't otherwise afford.


For "Dog Cancer Ride Across America TWO" I need your help...


Because only by working together can we get these innocent dogs the care they so desperately need, to give them the chance they so lovingly deserve.


Go to The Dog Cancer Ride Website (http://www.dogcancerride.com/) to learn more about the ride and the charities it supports - Please check it out now. And while you're there, make sure you check out the "Map of Heroes" - It's the perfect place where YOU can honor and pay tribute to your "Dog Cancer Hero" sick or healthy, living or passed.


Please sponsor me by making a tax-deductible charity donation. All donations to the "Dog Cancer Ride Across America" are managed by Giving Globally 501(c)(3) (an Oregon based 501(c)(3) non-profit that helps global charities coordinate their fundraising activities), and support 3 wonderful dog cancer charities:


1) The "Magic Bullet Fund,"


2) The "Marty Miracle Fund" - in honor of my Marty (the Wonderdog), and


3) "Best Friends Forever" - a charity project to promote dog cancer awareness and create ongoing charity fundraising opportunities.


Please, visit the Dog Cancer Ride Website (http://www.dogcancerride.com/) website and donate ANY AMOUNT you can - even as little as $1 - every bit helps, and every dollar is another dollar of care we can provide to a dog cancer hero out there fighting this disease.


I'm out on the road and I'll be sharing more about the ride and the dogs we're helping in the coming weeks. But for now, I hope this message finds you well - thank you for your support as we share this mission to help all of the wonderdogs out there live longer, healthier, happier lives.


Warmly,


Ted Schneck


P.S. Please take a moment now to visit The Dog Cancer Ride Website (http://www.dogcancerride.com/), make a donation, and learn more about the ride, the charities, and how you can help. And of course, make sure you visit the "Map of Heroes", where you can add your personal tribute to your very own "Dog Cancer Hero"


PLEASE forward this message to anyone else who may want to support the Ride, or send them to the website at http://www.dogcancerride.com/. Thanks.

    Heard Stranded Starfish - please crosspost to help these babies







    On Friday July 3rd many animals were pulled from Heard Co Animal Control to spare their lives. They were bound for TN but the lady who was taking them in was suddenly rushed to the hospital and now all these animals are stranded in GA in need of fosters, adopters, or another rescue to take them in.

    Please contact Karen at karen@caring4creatures.com if you can help even one.

    *****************************************

    these are some of our stranded starfish
    first picture is the intake photo at animal contro1
    next pics were taken by the volunteer drivers and
    temporary fosters - their comments follow the photos









    32009 Gary - sibling was adopted - talk about a handful -- loves loves loves to play. great personality. needs someone who likes an active kitten








    32509 Judy very sweet young mama cat. likes to climb around and get attention.
    her 2 babies



    32609 Millie - again, very cute and sweet. loves to play & be petted



    32809 Sassie - same as Millie









    36309 Kenny - Russian Blue – friendly and loving big boy - likes to meow and come to you when you come into the room







    37309 Peaches - orange and white long haired girl - Very scared of her own shadow. She likes to stay hidden but will come out. she loves to be petted and is super friendly. in the right enviroment and with constant loving care, she will come out of her shell and blossom. will make a great companion but will take a little time for her to feel secure.






    38009 Sneaky - he's scared and hiding - poor thing









    38109 adult female plot hound - has scar on her back - who knows what she has been through but she is still loving, animal control had classified her as a very, very, very nice dog






    39209 young male lab mix - friendly and goofy







    40109 young male shep mix - shy but not aggressive










    40209 Macon - he's a total trip. Eye infection is gone and his energy level is about 20 on a scale of 1 to 10. too cute for words. Loves to follow you around and lay on your lap









    41309 Sharon - female, loves to let you know she's there. very sweet -already has someone interested in her!








    41109 - Dublin - gray kitten - not sure if male of female. sometimes you can sneak a pet but not often. likes to be left alone as far as people. needs to be in a loving and patient home.
    41409 Tybee - probably Dublin's sibling - they stick together alot. also frightened of people






    42209 Ace adult male lab/hound mix neutered - my mom moved out of state and left me

    awesome dog. very loving and likes to give you kisses.











    43709 Rocky young boxer mix - Donny Osmond sang "and they call it puppy love" -- that's what Rocky is. pure puppy love. Will make a totally exellent companion. Already sits and fetches. Extra smart and a very quick learner. Loves to play and gets along fantastic with other dogs. walks good on leash. he is a little food aggressive with other dogs, that is the only thing negative that I can say about this true doll baby. If I could, I would make him part of my household. Rides great in car. He will curl up in the seat and nap and then come up to you for some smooches. I didn't want to leave him. Currently he is being treated in Millegeville for advanced stages of ring worm.









    43809 Angel - that is what she is. Very docile and affectionate. not an aggressive bone in her body. Loves to curl up next to you and lay on your lap while you're on the couch. Gets along great with other dogs and loves to play. Again, if I could, she would be a part of my household. I didn't want to leave her either. she rides good in the car but slobers some so i'm pretty sure she gets a little car sick but she never threw up. She will get in the back and lay down or she will curl up on the bucket seat. Walks good on leash.. Will make a fine family pet!!!!!!!






    44009 young shep mix boy was dumped at a church with Angel above - possibly her brother






    45109 Buck white adult male German Shepherd, maybe part yellow lab . He loves other dogs and appears to have had training walking on a leash and does not pull or jerk. Very calm and loving and will be beautiful once he has a better diet - appears to have been a country dog where they used old motor oil on his skin to try and defeat fleas and ticks. Is an escape artist so needs to be an inside dog or have lots of room to run outside. Temp foster said, "If I had the room and time, I would have asked to adopt him."









    45209 beautiful male Aussie - very friendly and playful
    45209 Prince - beautiful male Aussie - very friendly and playful - rode in passenger's lap from shelter to temp foster






    45509 shy black lab mix






    45609 female mix rottie/dobe/hound? has hurt nose and is scared





    45709 puppy, scared and skinny, not sure of sex








    46009 Callie, the calico. Super super friendly cat. loves to be held and petted.. hisses at some of the other cats but that's it. she would probably rather be an only cat but will be fine with others.






    46409 Julie - too cute is all I can say. full of energy and loves to nap








    46609 Patches - a little timid but super friendly. He gets scared with load noises and runs to find a place to hide. He comes back out pretty quickly and loves to be petted and likes to meow at you.

Emi is very well behaved – loves to herd her human friends in the most gentle way. Loves other cats and dogs, housebroke, good on a lead, not a yard digger but Emi definitely needs a yard to roam.

    Acton CA: Need Volunteers for Tree planting day for Basset Rescue Network on 7/19/09 (Sunday)

    This is not a picnic volunteer type. This is a heavy duty work event.

    Subject: Need Volunteers for Tree planting day for Basset Rescue Network on 7/19/09 (Sunday)

    Please forward to your friends, associates, co-workers, neighbors who might be able to volunteer.

    Date: Sunday, July 19, 2009.
    Time: 8 AM till all 25 trees planted.
    Location: Basset Rescue Network in Acton, CA
    6221 Shannon Valley Road, Acton, CA 93510
    http://www.bassetrescuenetwork.org/

    Please do NOT contact Dawn @ Basset Rescue Network. They have problem with phones & on schedule with phone company. Shelter still has dial up, so don't clog their e mails. Contact Ha Adolfo, e-mail: ha.adolfo@rescuershelper

    We need 8-10 strong, resilient volunteers who can use 2- man auger (rental from Home Depot), post drivers to dig holes for planting 25 pepper trees (15-gal size, 6-10 ft tall) at an animal rescue shelter in Acton, CA. The "dirt" is rocky ground.

    This is not a picnic volunteer type. This is a heavy duty work event.



    The trees need to be planted & provide much needed shade for exercise areas for the rescue dog, while they are waiting for adoption. The temperature can reach 80-100 degrees in summer.

    The tasks are:

    1. Using 2-man auger to drill 25 holes, 4 ft deep.
    2. Put a thin layer of starter/fertilizer/broken glass in the holes.
    3. Put a 4.5' pvc pipe into each hole
    4. Cut the bottom of pepper tree containers
    5. Place them in the holes & put a stake next to tree for supporting.
    6. Pour some fertilizer around the trees (in holes)
    7. Cover trees up.
    8. Pour water to pvc pipes to soak dirt around the tree

    Planting trees in high desert area is much different than other areas:
    * Roots must go straight downward to prevent permafrost (snowing in winter time)
    * Broken glasses at the bottom, so gophers and others won't eat tree roots.
    * Trees can only be water through PVC pipes, so roots will search for water downward.
    * If trees are watered by their base, roots will be close to the surface. It's can be uprooted by strong wind of 75 mph/guts, and roots will be damaged in winter. Trees will die. Furthermore, water can evaporate faster when trees are NOT water by pvc outlets.
    * Shelter has wells water. Water is a premium commodity.

    APPLE is For Adoption
    Apple is a 3 year old rescued Pit Bull Mix. She was rescued from being tied and neglected in a back yard. Since her rescue, Apple has gotten back to normal weight, her beautiful red coat is healthy and her personality is shining!
    Apple is high energy. She loves to run around in the back yard and play fetch (sometimes with just herself and her toy). She is super, super sweet and extremely affectionate. The perfect home for Apple would have a back yard and a family that is active that can match her energetic personality. Apple is extremely grateful of kind people. Apple would be best as the only pet in a family, as she doesn’t always get along with other dogs.
    Apple is crate trained and house broken.
    Apple is currently living at Lateral Kennels but she needs a loving family.
    Apple is up to date on all her vaccines and she is spayed.
    Please contact, 404-791-2738 or click_clique@yahoo.com for adoption information

    Subject: Apple, gorgeous pit mix in desperate need - please cross post!
    A good client of the vet where I work rescued Apple and her puppies from a neglectful, irresponsible owner in January. Sadly, all of Apple's puppies died of parvo. But Apple, determined to live, thrived and regained her health and beautiful coat. She was in a foster home for a short time, but has been in boarding for several months. Now the boarding facility is closing, and Stephanie, the client who rescued Apple, is in dire straits, with nowhere for Apple to go. [she is unable to adopt Apple herself as she already has two pit bulls]. Please help Stephanie find a foster or forever home for Apple. If you are interested in adopting or fostering Apple, contact Stephanie at stephaniedowda@gmail.com .... if not, please at least forward this message to friends and co-workers who may be interested.

    Los Angeles: Video! Redlisted neutered 6-year-old LabX after family surrendered him due to losing their home

    Hi Liz..
    Sorry for the delay in response. We had two possible rescues, but a cat rescue ended up taking him!! His previous owner - who lost his home and was forced to move back east - had been contacting people and working it on his end. Long story short, Puma was rescued, is at a foster and hopefully will soon be shipped back east to reunite with his owner! Interesting, huh!!

    *********************************************
    Rescuer is needed NOW to save Puma's life. He is still alive Monday night per database record here: http://tinyurl.com/nyapu8 . Volunteer Krista asked us this afternoon to network to find a rescuer/adopter to step up and save his life because nobody has come for him yet.

    I tried not to go to the shelter, but of course, that was impossible. I knew that I would meet and make friends with some special dogs. Greta is one of these dogs. Quiet and unassuming, she was laying in her kennel not making any fuss, just minding her own business. Of course I made my rounds in the front adoption area, but I'm always "seeking out" those dogs who have not had an opportunity to move in front of the public's eyes, but who deserve to be there. Again, Greta is one of these dogs. I opened her kennel door and plopped down on the floor. Though a bit shy at first, we quickly became friends. And I discovered that this gal has manners. Greta understands and obeys the sit command. She saw the treat in my hand and before I could get the request out of my mouth, Greta was already sitting down! I shared this information with Susan and she noted it on Greta's kennel card. Please take a look at Greta's pictures, I had her listed on Petfinder. Greta is calm and mellow and she would make someone who is interested in a companion more than an active playmate a great dog! Please if you can find room for Greta, follow the procedures to "tag" for rescue outlined below! Thank you for all the beloved AAS dogs you have all saved for me over the years and for the ones you will save in the future . They will always be "my dogs!" Hoping that Greta will be among the ones that were fortunate enough to walk out on their own four paws.

    GRETA, ID# 7942407, DH416Female, Shepherd mix, 2 years-old, 56 LB Greta was found as a stray, but we're sure she had a home. Not only is this lady beautiful, but she has manners; she sits on command and is very quiet. Greta is a bit shy when meeting new people, but warms up quickly. She enjoys attention and is very calm. Greta loves treats and her eyes light up when you offer her one! This lady would make the ideal canine for someone who truly wants a "best fur-friend." Please come to the shelter to meet this two year-old who will steal your heart as she has stolen mine.

I had a foster home for her but it fell through. I know y'all wouldn't know anyone who could foster would you know anyone who might donate towards her boarding?

    ...In order to rescue/pull from this shelter, a rescue needs to get in touch with Rebecca Young. Rebecca is the only volunteer I believe that helps at this shelter. The dogs listed are available only to rescue. The ones that concerns me the most is the mother chow mix and her 6 newborn pups. We all know that pups in a shelter setting are basically like sponges and soak up any germ. The longer they are in there the less chance they have of surviving because of their under developed immune systems. Could you please post the dogs for me on your blog? I know I've asked you lately for your help, but the mother and pups are really getting to me. As I understand they did have a rescue at one time lined up, but the rescue couldn't take them until the pups were weaned. They won't survive that long. I appreciate anything you can for these dogs at Caddo, as I'm sure Rebecca does.
    Thank you,

    Hi and Happy 4th of July to all local rescue groups and animal friends... I know some of you are breed specific, but if you would at least circulate and or post on your websites, it would be so appreciated.
    Yes, we still are trying to place these 2 very sweet and special dogs....in Jacksonville, Florida. Both are currently fostered, but due to unexpected circumstances, both foster homes need to have them moved to someone else. Both are having troubles and are no longer able to continue to foster them. PLEASE HELP ASAP. We had hoped they would have been adopted by now, but no real responsible inquiries.
    ...They are currently being fostered separately, but both foster homes have been only temporary. We still need to get the dogs adopted either together or separately.They were abandoned after their owner mom died and the family refused to take any responsibilities regarding them. They were planning to have the animal control pick them up. We did not want to separate them after all the sadness and trauma they went through, but had no choice. It was that or the shelter. Both dogs are current on heart worm preventative and flea treatments. They are now due for their annual shots.
    Mya is a spayed black and white Lab/Hound, maybe some bulldog in there as well and Navajo is a neutered Yellow Lab/Shepherd mix. They are older dogs approximately around 7-9 years old.
    ...They are so deserving to have a good home, hopefully together, but not a requirement. Both dogs have adjusted nicely to their new environments. They are good with other dogs, kids and cats. They have gotten used to sleeping in a crate as they were used to sleeping with their mom in her bed. They are total inside companion dogs. They are house trained and are very sweet, friendly and calm dogs.
    They also have a longtime vet reference at :
    Animal Care Center, 2520 St. Johns Bluff Road, Jacksonville, FL 32246 (904) 646-9414.

    Subject: Just found out more info. on kitty ID#A1040566... There is no image... But this is Another Little 3 month old Kitten Doomed at South LA...Needs Rescue ASAP! THANKS!


    Just received more info. on this little kitten that will need to be rescued from SOUTH LA ASAP... probably by Monday, July 6th as this is the day she will probably be released from OBS for supposedly biting someone on the finger... Staff says she is friendly though. She also has URI and ear mites, but it did not sound too bad...

    If you could possibly help save this little kitten and give her a second chance, please call or visit the South LA Animal Shelter at 3612 11th Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90018 off Crenshaw and Jefferson ASAP. You may call the shelter at 213/485-0117 or 213/485-0119...

    Many thanks for your help and consideration saving this kitten's life... xoxo...

    DASH earns his name as he is the master escape artist. Adopter must have tall fence, Dash can climb any baby gate or 4 foot chain link fence as though it doesn't exist. The thing is he is just an incredible loving fellow so you really do want to be super careful not to let him Dash off.

    We need to pick up 30 dogs and 11 cats - I also need to get to Missouri to get a pitt from Lillian. Anyone who knows Lillian knows that she has given a lot of time money love and care to her animals. Now her health is so bad she can no longer do it and she has some babies that I need to take. I am taking in those that no one held and would have been gassed or as in the case of the jonesboro animals heartsticked to be put down. One has a baby - some are young - one is a 179 pound St Bernard that needs help - I hate to ask - the cost of caring for them is astronmical - but I need help in getting them here.
    If you can help or can crosspost to people that might please do so through paypal @
    sarefuge@aol.com (aol . com).
    (Lillian, I am going to find a way to help and get her - pray that it will happen as I pray that your health improves. Here are a few waiting for me to get them just a couple of the many waiting - one chained to a stop sign - one pregnant - many need health care) -

    Waycross GA: S.O.S. Very urgent need to rescue dogs and cats, but not enough response from rescuers yet. HELP!

    From: Jane Keeler <jane.keeler@yahoo.com>
    Hi! My name is Jane and I work at the Okefenokee Humane Society in Waycross, GA. We are required to downsize by HALF in order to accomodate government run animal control, which will be beginning in mid-July. We've been given an extension on our deadline due to the July 4th holiday weekend, so we'll have these guys for one more week. I've sent pleas to hundreds of rescues, but only 3 dogs and no cats have been saved. Plus, more animals have come in since the initial pleas went out. Please check our UPDATED link: http://www.okefenokeehumanesociety.org/help.html
    The link has photos and videos of the new animals that have arrived, as well as all the original animals, which we still have. Due to the urgency of our situation, we are not charging a rescue pull fee. If your rescue requires any additional services, these are the actual costs we pay, for which we would need reimbursement:

    Heartworm check $30.00
    health certificate $30.00
    rabies vaccine $8.00
    spay or neuter $70.00 (dogs) $40.00 (cats)

    Please contact me at jane.keeler@yahoo.com for more information!! These babies only have until July 10!!
