This breaks my heart, especially since the police had already responded several months ago to rescue an abused dog with hate symbol painted on it. Imo these people are just working up to human abuse, either adult or children
Any folks or rescues that can help…please
Urgent! Please read
Today is a day where we feel like waiving a big white flag and acknowledging that irresponsible pet owners win and we lose. We are 1000% at a loss of what to do. Animals are dying every day and we can’t help them due to lack of foster homes.
Yesterday we received a call from someone stating their roommate was acquiring cats to torture and kill them. He claims he had already killed 7 this month and that one was still alive but injured. We contacted police and headed to Mount Vernon, Missouri to rescue the injured cat. To our surprise, this was the same home that Leslie (the swastika pup) was rescued from. We loaded up the injured cat and was asked by law enforcement to also take Leslie’s mom, dad, and two remaining siblings. There was no way we could leave them there (someone in the home had just drowned a cat in the toilet and placed its dead body under the bathroom sink) but now we are left with nowhere for them to go. Not one foster home. Not one open kennel. Literally nowhere. (police did take someone to jail last night and we are following up to make sure charges are filed)
We need help. We HAVE to find fosters for 12 dogs as boarding places are full on weekends and we have to move dogs. We HAVE to find fosters for a few dogs on our return lists that their owners have euthanasia appointments for because we can not take them right this second.
We beg of you, if you have the ability to foster a dog until it is adopted, please fill out a foster application at Foster Care – Rescue One. We provide you with everything you need! Can’t foster? PLEASE consider donating! We have spent over $6,000 this week alone on emergency cases. We love being there for our community but we need our community to be there for us in this crisis. Thank you for ANY assistance you can offer us and please know that we can not take in any animals at this time due to space.
*To foster, for your pets and ours, your personal pets must be up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered. You also must be committed to fostering until the pet is adopted. Must live within 45 minutes of Springfield, MO.
*If there are ANY no kill rescues out there, regardless of what state, that has room for any large dogs, please email us at [email protected]. WE CAN TRANSPORT.
