These three online organzations advertise specializing in recruiting shelter dogs for training and placement;

Kentucky K-9 Training & Rescue
Tammy Nugent
Leitchfield, KY 42755
270-597-6328
kydogtrainer@gmail.com

I have had correspondence with Tammy and referred a Mississippi Shelter worker to her and they were evaluating one or more dogs-but dog(s) were adopted locally.  The other two I have no personal experience with, but the information might be of use to save one more shelter/homeless dog.

National Working Dog Rescue & Placement
Lynnville, TN 38472
k9rescuer@hotmail
 

VVK-9 Centers
Sunrise, FL 33323
877-498-7838

That is fantastic. I saw a quite few WL dogs on petfinder the other day. I imagine the organizations you mentioned above stay updated on what dogs are available for adoption.

If the Ky group is the group I see on Petfinder, their dogs are VERY pricy. Too much imo for rescue dogs AND posting them on Petfinder

Steph, Were are most these WL dogs coming from? Owner surrender? Animal control? Strays? If surrendered, for what reasons are they typically being surrendered?

They come from all over the country. Lots from breeders, I do call the breeders back on the ones I know come from them and offer them back, one in particular, here in St. Ignatius, MT, REFUSES to take her dogs back and has hung up on me. Others are owner surrenders, because they are too much dog for the family, wasn't told they were working line, high drive dogs...some from shelters, strays, all over the place...

Nope, won't pm, have complained about her on here before. Sapphire Kennels in St. Ignatius...Ramona....remember??? The one was the blind gals dog...that pulled her into the street to go after another dog. Had several other dogs that were from her kennels too, she wouldn't take them back, hung up on me...

Then I don't know if you would call Omega Shepherds near Helena working line, but I get a bunch with defaults, like double ears on one ear, thyroid, and pannus, that has been discussed on here before too...there was a gal in Whitehall, but I think she finally quit...have to look up her kennel name.

Then there is a new one in Nine Mile area, near Missoula. Germain Haus, really bad skitso dogs, very fearful and major fear biters...Several in Spokane area, just got one in yesterday, had litter registration papers, had one from them a few months ago too, but they are bad yard breeders...there are also some backyard breeders in  Billings area.

@Steph, That's what I thought. What is wrong with these breeders?!?! First they sell the pups to homes they shouldn't be going to and then they don't take them back when things don't work out (which should be no surprise)??? For those breeders it's only about the money. So sad for the poor dogs :-(  

You have so graciously taken on the burden of so many dogs because humans are greedy, careless, irresponsible and simply don't give a s**t! You are such an amazing person. Thank you again Steph for all that you do.
