Can anyone help this sweet girl? I just found out about her this morning, so there's not much time because she's scheduled to die this afternoon. I believe there are 4 or 5 other dogs including puppies that will be killed today at the same high kill shelter in Elk City, Oklahoma. If you can help, please contact Jaye or Cheryl at roar4ever@gmail.com as fast as you can.

I was actively involved with Rescue for many years and remain on a few rescue lists. I still get dozens of this kind of urgent email every single day. It's the tragic disregard for the lives of animals that drives people into becoming PETA members and animal rights activists.
There is a lot of lip service on this List about what constitutes a good breeder, but the FOREMOST requirement of a good breeder is rarely mentioned: lifelong responsibility for the dogs they produce. If people really want to improve the breeding of dogs, the easiest and first step is to NEVER buy from a breeder who doesn't require in writing that any dogs they sell or produce be returned to them for rehoming if for any reason the buyer can't keep them. If everyone would do that one thing, we could hugely reduce the number of dogs killed in shelters. By most estimates, at least 25% of animals in shelters are purebred.
OK, I'll step down from my soapbox now.

I wish I had enough money to take in every homeless animal and child in the world. I am considering a road trip following old US Route 66 taking photos of rescued animals and shelter dogs in every town along the way to create a 2011 calendar with the proceeds going to rescue. If anyone lives along old Route 66 in the US and would like to be photographed, please PM me.
