As much as communications and time will allow i will try to keep this updated with our animal rescue trip to louisiana. We havent even gotten down there and most of us havent slept in 24 hours. People from all over are calling to help them, shelters need us....we have alot of work to do.

-snip-

None of these pictures have been edited at all....nothing. We took them on the run while driving or working and to get them down i left them as was. I hope yall still feel the effect of them. I dont think i have ever cried so much, but there were some good moments too. The LSU shelter where we brought the pets was a good part of the trip. what they are doing there is absolutely amazing.

I agree - dominion doesn't mean we get to torture, it means care for.

Thanks, Zacs Mom!

I love these threads - cheers me up immensely.

Welcome to the Nutburger Club! That's why people like me come flying out of the woodwork at news of animal abuse.

I hear you, get accused of being a "nutburger" all the time-it no longer phases me.;) On most days I care more about their welfare then my fellow so-called human beings.
