"These are the dogs and cats that were pulled from Rutherford, some months ago, that need to get into rescue. We are trying to pay off all our boarding bills and get everyone placed so we can help out again - for now, we can't help this desperate shelter at all :( Please consider helping one of these wonderful dogs or cats!"

"Handsome WALLY is our Rutherford out-of-shelter longtimer! He's been waiting since FEBRUARY for a home or a rescue! This is a sweet boy who would love a home of his own. He is about 3 years old and is good with other cats and would do best in an adult home or a home with older, respectful kids. The person who finally opens their home to Wally will be so lucky to have him!"
 "Murphy and Quinn have been waiting since JULY for their chance at rescue. Both boys were pulled from the Rutherford shelter when time ran out and are now in Blacksburg, SC waiting for rescue or homes. They are sweet boys, good with other dogs, and can go together or not. If you can help, or would like to sponsor some of their huge and growing boarding bill, please email erinsilks@yahoo.com."

11/8/12»"More Dogs Dying in Cages at NYC AC. New York City, "We Have a Problem" – Shelters in Crisis (Part 1)

» New York City, "We Have a Problem" – Shelters in Crisis (Part 1)

NYC AC&C’s website proclaims that their mission is “to promote and protect the health, safety and welfare of pets and people in New York City.” Well, it looks like we can classify that as an Epic Fail. Or is it an Epic Lie?  It certainly has been an Epic Disaster of late.

For months now, and in ever-increasing numbers, we have seen dogs coming out of NYC AC&C’s shelters with respiratory illnesses which go above and beyond the regular run-of-the-mill kennel cough. Dogs have come out with combinations (co-infections) of adenovirus, mycoplasma cynos, pulmonary e coli infections, various pneumonias, and canine influenza in addition to the standard kennel cough bugs. The presence of each of these illnesses is scary enough on their own, but even more frightening is the fact that some animals are getting so sick they are not making it out alive. Recently, more and more dogs have been dying in their cages… left to suffer alone, and without appropriate medical care, their lungs slowly filling up with fluid until they can no longer provide their bodies with the oxygen/carbon dioxide exchange necessary to maintain life. A few days ago, little Nam was the latest in a too-rapidly growing list of victims.
