35 Souls In the Balance
A major rescue effort is going on for 35 dogs and cats at Heard County Animal Control in Franklin, GA. If the effort fails, all 35 will be euthanized tomorrow morning. Donations of the following are needed:
- Collars and Leashes for Medium and Large dogs, and several large breed puppies.
- Cat and dog carries. The toy dog/cat carrier can be used for a cat, the small to medium dog carriers can be used for mom cats with babies, or several older kittens.
A hand is needed also.
- One or two more drivers are needed to drive from Franklin, GA into Tennessee, or Franklin, GA to a point in between. Driver needs to be ready to load at Heard County animal control at 9:00 A.M. or earlier on Friday (tomorrow) and be able to transport several dogs or cats.
Also, financial donations would be appreciated by the rescue as well. It will help offset the cost of vet care. There are two dogs that are owner turn ins that are up to date on their care, and three dogs that have already received their rabies shots. The rest need help with basic vet care to give them a chance at rescue and home.
This is their last chance. There has been little or no interest in the dogs and cats because of the holiday weekend, and the shelter is closed to the public over the holiday. One shelter, in Henry County, already lost all but seven souls in the entire shelter. Let’s not lose 35 more!
Please see the Heard County Animal Control page for the latest details.
