Rebekah,
They aren't too far from you, actually. Glasgow is close to Nashville.

Here some news on the Pups, I haven't heard anything from ther shelter that they are in yet but I have gotten some emails back from my email group and I haven done a search online to find some no kill shelters in Kentucky and found some. One of the people in my group said they'd be willing to help with the transport to another area, so there's hope. I'll see about getting the collie mix out of there too, his face broke my heart.. can't leave him there.  :'( But it's looking good.

How about pulling Ranger as well, he's a collie/pyr cross and so very cute. Please pull Ranger as well if you are able to save the other two .

I just sent an email to All Gods Creatures Rescue & Grooming(AGCRG), asking them if they can take in Opal, Bernice, and Ranger ;D(i wouldn't leave him out) they are very near Glasgow, from the map I looked up. So cross your fingers

I just got some news from the shelter that the dogs are in and he said that they are on Borrowed time, they get 5 days and then they are adopted out or put down. So they are on borrowed time now. I told him that I have contacted some rescue groups and some people are will to help with transport all I need is to find a rescue to take them in. I asked him to please wait to give me time...( sorry this is very hard for me .. crying... feel very helpless.... Well hopefully they just wait and give me time to find them a no kill place....

Hi Nina,   Please keep us updated. I will be making call today to see if I can find anyone in the area that will give them a home.  Did he give you an additional information on them.

I would be happy to pick them up and even foster them but I just don't have the money to get them out of jail right now!

What is the fee they are asking, I sure we can all put something together.

On the shelter's website it said that dog adoptions are *usually* $65.00.

 I have emailed all the pyr rescue groups in all the surrounding states and the pyr list that I belong to people are willing to transport the dogs and one person is trying to find them a home. According to the website the adoption fees are $65 dollars per dog, I would be more than willing to help with some money, I would have some tomorrow as I get paid then. Please let me know if you can pick them up, someone on my Pyr list is in Kentucky and asking people that she knows if they are willing to adopt, they had a pyr before and it passed on because of old age...


thanks

I am working at trying to pay the fees to get them "out of jail"..I have sent an email and left a message for the animal shelter to contact me as soon as possible.  I will keep the group posted once I hear a reply.  If the "out of jail" money will keep them safe until we can get them out of there, I can make transportation arrangements to meet someone part of the way and bring them back to Wisconsin; whatever it takes.

Where are you in WI?...I am close to Dubuque IA & could help with a leg of transportation but it would have to be on a weekend day as my only vehicle goes to work with my hubby in Dubuque Mon.-Fri....He's also working Sat. right now but is home earlier than the rest of the week.

How many of them are getting out of jail? I don't know how many pyrs will fit in my 4 door car! But then again, stuffing them into my car will probably make them happier than being in the pound! Whoever is the grand master of this plan let me know how I can help out. Best possible scenario sounds like if they could go to a pyr rescue group who has lots of experience with this breed, but I will sure help if I can!

So here's what is happening so far, there is 3 dogs that are in need of rescue, Beth has offered to help pay for the get out of Jail fee and I can help as well, it is $65 per dog, according to the website.  So we have 2 options

1) Beth can get them to a rescue shelter in wisconsin, I have emailed someone from my pyr list, she said she could possible help with trasnport but her car can only hold 2 dogs max.

2) we also have transport to denver but I haven't heard anything back from any shelters in that area.

If you can help with transport that would be great gyps. If you want to email me or Beth and let us know that would be great.
