Homeless Man Rescues GSD - Page 6

VA and SSI bennefits are known to take FOREVER to kick in. Unless he can prove injury or sickness, due to his time served in the military, he wont recieve any bennies from them. He should be a shoe in for some sort of SSI or disability being shot on the job. But who knows when that took place, maybe he is still awaiting his benefits? These SOB's drag their feet hoping people will quit appealing and give up. It's along PITA road, with many ratings needing to be done to finally recieve 100% disability. It's not usually a one shot one kill deal.

Thanks DebiSue you made that too easy to do! :) I hope others also contact Ellen.  I would suggest going to BabyEagle4Us' FB page to get a copy of his pic so u can upload to Ellens' page. Bess you all!

If our international friends would give us a hand and post to the sites also it just might give us the push we need. I am really hoping that we can really get behind this, have to have the numbers to make it work. If you can share with the other dog boards, or chat.
This is the best side of us when the board backs a worthy cause!

YOU GUYS ARE GREAT,after checking back on this post this morning I am amazed at how a few here have jumped in and got the ball rolling FOR REAL.There still are few of us decent people left after all.This has offset part of the anger at the SCUM who did this.By seeing what you guys are doing for this gentleman I cant begin to tell you how great this feels.I'll bet this gentleman is going to freak when he finds out what kind of respect we have for him and what some of the people on the PDB have taken the incentive to do.KARMA people,it is really alive and well.I bet he would of never thought this could of happened  over saving a GSD.You guys that are doing the footwork are awesome.It will come back on you all the same way that the gentleman who helped this poor dog is about (hopefully)to get it back..Thank you to all of you that have taken the time for someone else,someone you dont even know,someone who started out just wanting to help out a poor innocent dog in dire danger.I hope that someone in government hears of this and finally takes some sort of action.People like this gentleman who have fought for there country and for all of us should NOT be in this position and neither should defenceless animals who are  being tortured ,discarded and abused .Thanks again to all of you that have decided to help in any way you can.May all this goodness come back on you.

I cross posted to 2 other boards.  GSD World and German Shepherds.com

BUMP!

Have you notified everyone you can think of yet?  Have you clicked on the Ellen page and sent her this info?

We need to get the word out that this man deserves help for serving his country and coming to the aid of a helpless GSD.

Come on folks!  Together we can make it happen!

I just saw this post and want to help. You people are AWESOME! It is late and I briefly scanned the various posts, but someone mentioned this is what Memorial Day is all about- those who have served our country so that we can enjoy all of our freedoms! It is heartbreaking that this man is homeless with no where to go. Of course what endears me to him even more is that he saved a helpless dog, a GSD no less.   Please tell me what to do- where can we send money to help this guy?  Would it still be beneficial to post something on Ellen's site?  

Oh please do Starrchar!  Although Ellen gets so many request I'm sure if enough of us do the Ellen thing .... they might take notice and here is the person that could help you get the money to him

The lady who helped the homeless gentleman was Sheila Zachar at 901-219-1825.
Address Shelia Zachar, 7051 Old Brownsville, Arlington, TN 38002

HI, I did the Ellen thing hopefully if enough of us do this someone will notice!Great job everyone!!! Heading to facebook.

This isn't gonna be as easy as I thought getting national media coverage on this guy, he is extremely opinionated. Kinda like a certain member here if ya know what I mean. And isn't afraid to say what he knows and feels about certain ideas, past, present events and personal beliefs.
 
Who ever gives this Veteran the mic on national TV would need to resemble an Alex Jones type independent freedom of speech media or possibly  Russia Today. I don't see the MSM allowing this guy on national TV live after a simple 30 minute personal interview questioning his life and services. The anchor I had in mind was denied the airtime after a preview.

We're gonna have to focus on an independent media to get this ball rolling nationally. Someone who's gonna let this guy talk .. because once he gets talking he's on a info mission. Unless they could keep the subject strictly about saving the dog. I don't see that happening either on an open mic. That's what channel 3 news did on the OP's link ... it was edited bigtime no doubt to strictly the dog.

Very self governed and brave man indeed. Thanks for posting his link Tess.
