Thanks for forcing me to see those pix!

Send them a small bottle of water or a Juice box in their back pack. I do it because I don't want my kids drinking Kool-Aid, one hates milk, blah..blah..blah..

Anything with hair can get fleas and ticks!

Jump for Joey definately! My kids have only been once and are begging to go back.

About $2 per game. But you don't realize that because they have a machine where you put your $ in it, it goes on a card and you swipe the card at every game. Maybe a hand full are 1 point, they use a point system, but all the ones my 6 year old likes, are 6-8 points each game. But you do win a lot of tickets if you play the right games well.

Those are for the month of August.

This only includes our county shelter, so times that by ALL the counties in GA and then ALL the states... SCARY!
Total number of animals Euthanized – 289
(Dogs 53, Cats 69, Kittens 131, puppies 36)
Come on everyone -- spay and neuter!

Just woke up to plenty of sunshine -- everyone enjoy!

I always explain to people to mainly be caused by the fact that when you mix a mix with a mix of a mix, the color usually turns out to be black. And when their is 2 blonde dogs to choose from and 12 black, most folks choose one of the blonde.

The ocean is so dirty, ain't no one getting in. It's been closed until today, double red flags went to yellow overnight.

It actually came on Sunday night and tonight they replayed it, it was very interesting!
-
Sure, we'll be here at least until Friday morning. We might leave Fri. morning but I'd like to stay until Sunday night, not sure yet.

Hey lulu we're here now, but the weather is very hit/miss every day. I vote don't do it. Supposed to be bad come Monday and people are canceling where we're staying, so they don't expect to even be busy for the holiday. Not worth the drive and $ for a hurricane. We're going to be headed home before it really hits and it's boring in the room with 3 kids. We had a beautiful day today!!!

"Legally" any animal bite is supposed to be reported to county animal control. The animal, up to date or not, is required by law to be quarantined for 10 days. This is to ensure the animal has not been exposed to Rabies, and the person bit won't needs to receive painful and expense Rabies shots at the bite site. The quarantine can be done either at the shelter for a minimal fee or at the vet of your choose.

You could always adopt a pet to help warm your heart...if you have the money....
-
And as a side note: The shelter does not euthanize animals that they have already spayed or neutered. They are either adopted, rescued, transfered, etc. The only exception would be if the animal becomes so sick/ill that it's suffering or it's later discovered the animal has an issue that is untreatable making it unadoptable.

Okay I've read all the posts and after picking my jaw up off the floor, here goes...
An adoption fee is set for many reasons. To begin with, vet care is NOT free. Second, charging a fee is the best way (after an application process) to know that an applicant can provide for an animal immedietely following the adoption and for the rest of it's life. If you don't have $25, $35, or $100, please don't adopt or get an animal, you don't need one. Even a fully vetted animal for $100 is still going to immedietely cost you approx. $50+ for even just a 6 month supply of heartworm and flea prevention. And if you're not going to go buy heartworm and flea prevention to keep your dog healthy and parasite free, please don't adopt or get an animal.
Prime example: An e-mail I received today from a lady that adopted a puppy from us a few months back. Right after the adoption, she lost her job, she never took the puppy in for any puppy boosters, never got it on heartworm and flea prevention. Thank god we spay and neuter and chip prior to adoption or these things would have not been done and now she would more than likely be contacting us to return a dog + her dozen puppies or so. So now we have to heartworm test the dog and pray she tests negative, restart her series if DHLPP vaccinations, get her Rabies, flea treat her, deworm her several times and have her rechecked by our vet. And on top of it all, now we have a full grown dog to place vs. the highly adoptable puppy everyone wanted months ago. Of course this adopter couldn't have predicted what would happen, but it certainly tells the story of what happens when one can't afford an animal, even though she could initially afford the $100 adoption fee.
It saddens me to hear such ignorant comments about things like disagreeing with microchipping, or only doing what the law requires. Please find a nice fuzzy stuffed animal, name it and call it your pet!

Weather sucks, it's still double red flag with the coat guard flying over and the sheriff riding the beach saying stay out. We thought we were going to watch some crazy moron on a board drown yesterday. Jelly fish are still here with the seaweed. Had about 2 hours of good sun today with plenty of rain before and after.

I think I'd pass on any boat rides right now due to the rough seas. The waves are crazy big!
I'd pack rain coats for the kids.

I believe this topic needs to be moved.

Add a penny to the bag.

We'll take them into our program. E-mail me if you'd like our help tonight to set up bringing them to us tomorrow afternoon and we'll give them Capstar tablets upon arrival.

I love me some Madonna!

We used Hometown and they bought them out. Have had nothing but problems, including days without a check card and now they are trying to charge me for check imaging which I am so not paying for. I absolutely hate the Hiram branch and with the brick walls vs. someone's face they take their sweet time getting around to helping you. I'll be switching ASAP just can't decide to where yet.
