LasVegasWrinkleRescue Rescued Houston Dogs

I'm sure you all heard about the dog bust in Houston where there were about 100 dogs found but only about 30 were able to be rescued? Well...Jennifer is a member in my group and they called her to see if she could handle them. She is normally a 2-4 dog rescue, but she couldn't say no. One more time, as a group, we rallied to send her what we could. Old towels, blankets, sheets, money...one girl had a PetSmart gift card she was waiting to use and just sent it to her! Jennifer needed more. Granted, we all wanted to rush down there and put hands to the efforts, but that was not practical on many levels, but our hearts and prayers are with her. She knows we are thinking of her and that we would be there if it were possible. So, with our tears, we listen, with our hearts we pray and with our arms, we wrap them around our pups and promise them they will NEVER have to worry about being mistreated ever again.

Donations can be made directly on her website.

Here's Jennifer's words as she described the situation and her heartfelt thanks in a thread in our group:

Towels will sooooo come in handy!!! Animal Planet is "supposed" to do a "Where are they now" story sometime in the future. Our local station called today and interviewed both myself and my partner. EEEEEEEEEEE I don't like public speaking! I felt like a second grader during a spelling bee! Oh and ended up choking up and tearing up when speaking of a little girl I named Prissy Priscilla. With all she's been through, she still such the little lover! heres a couple pics of me and her.

To all of you, your support means more to me then you'll EVER know!On Monday Sept. 19th the Houston Bulldogs FINALLY arrived in Las Vegas. The magnitude of this situation finally came into focus.They all are massively underweight, with slight fevers, some have eye irritations, and many with strange unexplainable skin lesions. These babes arrived looking somewhat defeated, broken down shells of the dogs they use to be. Despite the trama they have been through, they still remained happy, smiling bullies!They are all still horrendously underweight, with severe upper respiratory infections.

The staff at Durango Animal Hospital came in early or on their days off, to insure that the absolute best care was available for ALL dogs. On arrival, their weights were charted, temps taken, and body condition evaluated, they were feed and given a chance to rest.We previously only had numbers to associate these dogs with, but upon their arrival we were able to give ever number a name.

After giving them a chance to settle in, they were individually taken out, walked and given the attention they soooooo desperately craved. We spent more then twelve hours making sure they were bathed, comforted and loved on.Their road to recovery and rehabilitation will be a looooooooong complicated process, but we will be there with them during their entire journey.
To our family(who won't be seeing a lot of us for a while) our friends and everyone else that enables us to do this, our deepest heartfelt THANKS!!!!! We are emotionally, physically, and mentally drained, but relieved they are here. So their journey begins! PLEASE keep them in your thoughts and prayers!these pics were taken yesterday during their evaluation

thanks all of you!!!! its just sooooooooooo flipppin hard to wrap my head around this! I mean seriously, the bitch LIVED on the property! How do you stuff your face with food paid for off their backs and watch them STARVE?!?!?!?! For the moment she's in jail awaiting her criminal trial. I'd LOVE to fly down there and testify against this bitch! I'll send pics as I get them. Honestly, there are some that are way to F'd to post anywhere! My daily ritual has become, get up have some coffee, feed my dogs, take the kids to school, come home and network, answer emails and phone calls, and go visit the dogs in ISO. Then its time to pick up the kids, strip in the garage, and wash my clothes so I don't transmit anything, shower, cook dinner, answers emails, network return calls, and colapse into a pile of blah, with my dogs! Some of these dogs still have an if'y prognosis and I can't bare to loss another one! PLEASE all you bully lovers, hugs your pups, keep them close and pray for these guys to get through this.
