Doggieping — can anyone help?
I’ve posted to my Facebook friends, but how can people contact you or her?
” a home is needed by tomorrow or they go to the pound. “
This is REALLY short notice — is there somewhere they could be kept for a few days or a couple of weeks?
I had a chocolate (liver color) lab.
I’ve known several dogs in my life, I’m now quite old, and the lab was probably the best all around: temperment, intelligence, friendly—the whole package.
He was a good boy and I still miss him.
Contact me I will be here
The family is in Northern Ca, about 100 mikles North of Sacramento
I don’t know where you are located, but there are organizations throughout the U.S. that work for Labrador Retriever rescues. Look it up by doing a search; depends on what part of the country you’re in.
Freedom is the male, Liberty is the female.
The male is fixed.
OOPs.
Please tell your friend to try to find a no-kill animal shelter — some of those take dogs and try to get them adopted.
Looks like she is in N CA— I heard of a place in So CA, in the LA area that she can at least call, maybe they can recommend a place closer to her that would take the dogs.
7720 Gloria Avenue
Van Nuys, CA 91406
Phone: (818) 901 - 0190
“Pet Orphans is a 501 (c) (3) charitable organization dedicated to the advancement of companion animal welfare and to combating overpopulation, abandonment and the need for euthanasia. We have been rescuing, rehabilitating and placing animals in loving “forever homes” for 40 years”
Something like this would be an option on such short notice.
If they really care for the dogs, they might even want to donate to such organization for taking the dogs.
She should check in her area, or call up Pet Orphans and maybe they know of similar no-kill shelters in her area.
That’s not going to help; I can’t monitor the Facebook post, I’m afraid.
Thank you, I will do a search.
Well, I put the link to this post, so they can join and write you here if they’re not a member of FR, I guess. That’s the best I can do.
Thanks, I gave her the URL link to this thread and will keep in touch with her.

Have her check out:
