WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE HUMANE?

 

MY MOM'S COMMENTARY!

- WHAT DOES HUMANE TREATMENT OF ANIMALS MEAN? TO ME IT MEANS COMPASSION, KINDNESS AND BEING CONSIDERATE IN THE TREATMENT OF OUR ANIMALS IN LIFE AND IN DEATH. 

- WHAT DOES ANIMAL SHELTER MEAN? TO ME IT MEANS A TEMPORARY HOME OR SANCTUARY TO KEEP DOGS, CATS AND OTHER ANIMALS SAFE UNTIL A FOREVER HOME CAN BE FOUND FOR THEM.

- WHAT DOES HUMANELY EUTHANIZE MEAN? TO ME IT MEANS TO GIVE REST TO A PET THAT IS TERMINALLY ILL AND SUFFERING OR IS TOO OLD TO GO ON WITH A QUALITY OF LIFE. WHEN IT COMES TO BEHAVIORAL ISSUES THE JURY IS OUT FOR ME. 

SADLY, I SEE THE FACES OF SO MANY DOGS AND EVEN PUPPIES THAT ARE POSTED ON THE INTERNET THAT ARE TO BE EUTHANIZED IF NOT ADOPTED OR RESCUED. TOO OFTEN THEIR CRIME IS DUE TO LENGTH OF STAY AND LACK OF SPACE FOR INCOMING DOGS. THEN THERE ARE THOSE THAT ARE EUTHANIZED DUE TO BEHAVIORAL CONCERNS. (IT HAS BEEN FOUND THAT AN ANIMAL'S BEHAVIOR CAN DETERIORATE AS A RESULT OF BEING IN A SHELTER).  I LOOK AT THEIR PICTURES AND I SEE HOPE IN THEIR EYES FOR A FOREVER HOME THAT MAY NEVER COME AND I AM DEEPLY SADDENED. SOME OF THE SHELTERS THAT COMMIT THESE "HUMANE EUTHANIZATIONS" ON A REGULAR BASIS ARE: NEW YORK, PHILADELPHIA, CALIFORNIA, TEXAS (SAN ANTONIO, HOUSTON, FORT WORTH, DALLAS), FLORIDA (MIAMI DADE) AND THERE ARE MORE IN OUR COUNTRY. EVEN "NO KILL" SHELTERS CAN EUTHANIZE 10% OF THEIR ANIMAL POPULATION AND MAINTAIN IT'S "NO KILL" STATUS.

I BELIEVE THAT WE ARE A COUNTRY IN CRISIS NOT ONLY FOR US BUT ALSO REGARDING OUR ANIMALS! THERE ARE TOO MANY PUPPY MILLS AND BACKYARD BREEDERS, TOO MANY PEOPLE WHO HARM OR KILL ANIMALS, TOO MANY SHELTERS THAT ARE UNDERSTAFFED OR MISMANAGED, TOO MANY IRRESPONSIBLE OWNERS WHO DO NOT SPAY OR NEUTER THEIR ANIMALS, AND TOO MANY PEOPLE WHO SURRENDER THEIR PETS BECAUSE "THEY ARE NOT A FIT FOR THEIR FAMILY" OR "I HAVE NO TIME FOR THEM"!!! I BELIEVE THAT OUR COUNTRY NEEDS TO BECOME MORE HUMANE IN THE TREATMENT OF OUR ANIMALS, SO MORE ANIMAL LIVES CAN BE SAVED. SO LET'S START BY OPENING YOUR HOME AND YOUR HEARTS AND ADOPT, RESCUE AND FOSTER!

ROSIE, HAZEL AND CHEVY IN URGENT NEED OF RESCUE!!!

URGENT RESCUE NEEDED!!!

ROSIE, HAZEL AND CHEVY ARE IN NEED OF A RESCUE! 

FRIENDS OF NORTHERN OCEAN COUNTY ANIMAL FACILITY POSTED A PLEA FOR HELP ON THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE FOR THE THREE PUPS BELOW: (MY MOM CONDENSED SOME OF THEIR INFORMATION)

ROSIE: "Back in early December this beautiful girl was one of 180 animals rescued from hoarding hell in Brick Township. Rosie, like many of the other dogs in this nightmare, was found shoved in a crate, piled one on top of another. Rosie is the last remaining hoarding dog at our location in Jackson and she is still in desperate need of help. Rosie failed her temperament test for guarding her food, can anyone blame her after what she went through? Who knows what she was fed, who knows how often she was fed, but unfortunately because she does guard her food she needs rescue by an approved 501(c)3 Rescue. Please any 501(c)3 Rescue that can help, or if there is someone out there willing to foster this sweet girl for a Rescue, please email kathleenfrett1@gmail.com and please keep sharing for our last remaining hoarding survivor! Rosie"

HAZEL: "She came into the shelter at the same time of the hoarding dogs back in December. She was only 8 months old!!! Her people dumped her and got themselves a new puppy. She is literally growing up in the shelter and thinks this is her life. Well Hazel this is not your life and we are on a mission to find you a forever family. Hazel passed all temperament testing but is in need of rescue because she can be nervous around new people.. Any 501(c)3 Rescue that can help Hazel, please email kathleenfrett1@gmail.com. If you are interested in fostering, please message us as hopefully we can connect to a rescue. Hazel comes with a small sponsorship to any rescue who can pull her. This is being donated by the volunteers who walk her."

CHEVY: "This fantastic boy is still in desperate need of a 501(c)3 Rescue! Chevy is the nicest boy who ended up in the shelter through 100% no fault of his own. Unfortunately, he needs rescue for food. Chevy just needs someone to love him and of course throw him tennis balls all day. Chevy is dog friendly but due to his size and energy he may be too much for some dogs. Any rescue that can help please please reach out to kathleenfrett1@gmail.com. If anyone is interested in fostering this great boy, please reach out. We have rescues that want to help him but they need fosters!"

PLEASE HELP THESE BEAUTIFUL PUPS!

REMEMBER!

TODAY IS NATIONAL ADOPT A SHELTER PET

 

HI GUYS! 🐾

TODAY IS THE DAY TO GET OUT AND VISIT YOUR LOCAL SHELTER BECAUSE IT'S NATIONAL ADOPT A SHELTER PET DAY!!! THE AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY CREATED THIS HOLIDAY IN 1981, TO RAISE AWARENESS OF DOGS STUCK IN SHELTERS. BUT EVENTUALLY PET OWNERS WANTED THIS DAY TO INCLUDE EVERY PET IN A SHELTER. SO NATIONAL ADOPT A SHELTER PET DAY WAS BORN!

DID YOU KNOW THAT IT IS ESTIMATED THAT 6.5 MILLION ANIMALS GO INTO ANIMAL SHELTERS IN THE U.S. EVERY YEAR. DID YOU KNOW OF THE 6.5 MILLION ANIMALS, 3.3 MILLION ARE DOGS AND 3.2 MILLION ARE CATS. SADLY DUE TO A SHORTAGE OF PET SHELTERS ACROSS OUR COUNTRY OVER 1.5 MILLION ANIMALS ARE EUTHANIZED EVERY YEAR OF WHICH 860,000 ARE CATS AND 670,000 ARE DOGS. 

SO, PLEASE GET OUT AND SAVE A LIFE. THE FOLLOWING QUOTES SAYS IT ALL!
