thats so sad, I shouldn't have went to the page, there is a pregnant corgi mix.....

He is very cute, and looks like a good boy. Oh, this makes me sad.
:fingerscr that he finds a home soon.

Does "Will be PTS" mean what I think it means?

if he's in ohio, there's a good chance he will be gassed......

I really don't see that this poor guy is chunky.... he looks darn scrawny to me.... :sad:

PTS = Put To Sleep.. yes its gassing

Is there any chance he would be allowed into Canada?

Sure.. the transports come up every weekend.. I just got 3 bassets out of Ohio

I am going to check in the morning with a coworker and will let you know. No promises but will sure try!

Do you know what the skin issues were?

I just went back and re read... does the kennelling thing mean he needs to be homed with other dogs?

Do the transports come across the border into certain provinces only or any?

OMG Helen why:sad:I would think an American Bulldog would be highly adoptable and BMDlover is right,he looks awfully skinny in the pic.
:pray::pray::pray:someone can help:pray:

The transports for me come to Cornwall.. but others I see go all over the place..

http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/CBDR/

Description
This group helps rescues on both sides of the border move dogs freely from shelters, humane societies, animal controls and rescue groups to forever home, foster homes and other rescues. Notices are posted about dogs in need, urgent situations and plea's for help. Transport help and home visits can also be requested on list. As with all groups, respect and courtesy of others is expected.

If you have any questions on this group, feel free to write to CBDR-owner@yahoogroups.com for details.

folliculitis is a reaction to allergens, bacteria, fungus or parasites that affects the skin around hair follicles. It can develop on any part of the body but is most likely to occur on the face and head.

Treatment
# A diagnosis to determine the underlying factors is necessary to effectively treat folliculitis without causing further irritation. Antibacterial shampoo, anti-fungal creams, antibiotic ointment and prescription medications are used to treat this condition.

really? cornwall? if you ever need a place to meet, I live in cornwall

If I lived somewhere where I could house more then two dogs then I would take all of them home.

That one dog that they said was AWESOME is so cute, and looks like a large lap dog.

I really never knew that there were these sorts of lists. I honestly stared at it for over an hour looking at all the animals.

Yes I'm up in Cornwall all the time.. I have a US postbox in Massena.. as it is so much cheaper to post from the US.. I'm going tomorrow down there..

I get at least 10 daily of similar lists with all kinds of breeds.. I'm glad to help the CBDR ..

This site made me so sad...That Shih Tzu and the pregnate dog...was just to much for me..Quincy is on my lap kissing away the tears..

Hi HelenNutmeg I am so sorry I couldnt find any help here for this poor soul! I did speak with my coworker and he honestly felt that Carter is in pretty rough shape. Although he was wanting to help it really isnt a good time for him to take Carter. I am sooo sorry I hope something else works out for this poor soul!

I really don't see that this poor guy is chunky.... he looks darn scrawny to me.... :sad:

I agree. :sad:

Poor little fellow ....I hope someone can give him the forever home he deserves. :pray: :fingerscr :goodvibes:

AWWWWWWW poor baby....:sad:

Ummmmm I think there is a mix up with that pic. That can't be Carter...I went on the link and Carter is there..He is a VERY handsome chunky dog...Carter has brown on the left side of his face, this one doesn't....:shrug:

Sorry just had to point it out....Either way, I hope they ALL make it out in time...:sad:

Yes your right.. this is Carter.. that is another one with PTS on another site sadly..

Hi! I have someone who is looking, just let me check with her and I'll get back to you asap.

She can't take him right now.....

This is so sad :sad: and, the 14th is almost here. :cry:

yes and they have updated the Euthanasia List again today..

I wish more folks would watch the Youtube I put on my blog about being NOT FAIR

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0KucYppXO0

I have not been able to look at the list,knowing I can do nothing to help:sad:
I can only hope that someone out there has enough Christmas spirit not to see this boy lose his life,or any others on this killing list:pray::fingerscr

:pray::pray::pray::pray: that all of them find a good home for the holidays....it just breaks my heart to see those beautiful faces and know that no one wants them especially when so many of us that can't would jump at the chance had we the room! :goodvibes: their :angel2:s are just around the corner with the perfect home for them. Can someone not foster them or do they have to be adopted?

Yes they could be fostered.. and they try to get fosters or even sponsors but you know how the economy is down there..

YaY.. Carter is safe.. ADOPTED

That video is really tough to watch. What a horrible reality.

YaY.. Carter is safe.. ADOPTED

I was afraid to look at this thread. That is absolutely wonderful news! Dawg bless the :angel: who adopted him.
:goodvibes::goodvibes: that Carter has a long and happy life in his new forever home.

I am soooooo happy to hear that Carter got adopted. :highfive:

As mikischo said ....bless the person that adopted him. :angel: :thumbs up

I couldn't finish watching the video, just make me sick and so sad for those poor animals. :sad:


I am so glad Carter has been adopted :thumbs up

Helen,thank you,that's great news:thumbs up
I was thinking of him yesterday,thinking it was his last day on earth:sad:
I did not see the list or watch any video,but I am hoping some of the other pups were as lucky as Carter:pray:

Yes I know the video is tough to watch but so many people need reality checks..

Here is the New List for PTS..

[QUOTE=HelenNutmeg;861405]Yes I know the video is tough to watch but so many people need reality checks..

I agree 100% and not watching the videos is not saving or helping those poor animals. Sometimes I just need to be in a better frame of mind to see them :cry:.

I wish that some people would not support these BYB and puppymills, but so many have the attitude that I'll rescue that poor pup in the petstore, not thinking they are actually supporting the actions of the heartless people who are running these puppymills. They just don't get it. :sad:
