Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By joker1: That is why I started my original thread begging for help for homes for the dogs. I also asked to please not clog the thread with useless worry and telling me what to do with my life. It became so clogged up and exhausted me so much defending my choices that I asked that the thread be deleted. Hopefully if I have the energy later tonight I later tonight I can restart a thread or at least attempt to that least attempt to that just lists my dogs with none of the b******* of other guys telling me what I should do. I was the first post in that thread. I’m sorry if it seemed like I was trying to tell you what to do, I was just concerned for you. You are the best of us and I do not want to lose you. |

@Joker1
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help, truth be told my little girl is desperate to get a puppers. I am also part of a signal group of Indiana members of arf, I know that there are several good guys and gals in Southern Indiana. I'm not sure how far south in KY you are, but I would bet we could get some help your way if needed. Hell, I would be willing to make a drive, as I have family in Florence. Let me know if you need it, please. |

Damn it. This isn't good news at all.
I know you don't want people telling you what to do, but you better take care of yourself. There are too many dogs out there that need you in their lives. I'm about 10 hours away, so I'm struggling with what I can do to help. I sent some money, but that doesn't help carry dog food in. If nobody closer can help, I can always come out and camp for a few days and make sure they all get fed. My wife already volunteered to take care of our dogs while I'm gone. Sabrina says hi.

@Joker1 perhaps contact the local FFA/Ag teacher at the high school. I bet you can get a good solid kid to handle your daily chores for cash/under the table. And I bet we/arfcom can keep that kid paid as long as you need it.
Just a thought. When I was a teenager I would have jumped at the chance to be around so many dogs. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By joker1: Post a pic when you get a chance. I could use a pick me up. 7 Years ago, we lost our dog Cassidy. Man I loved that pooch. She was so sweet. After we mourned her loss and wanted to get another dog, my wife heard about this Airedale that was at the shelter. When we got there on a Sunday, there was a line of people waiting to see her. As I was waiting for my turn to see her, my bride was playing with this pit mix that was so scared and shivering in the corner. My wife finally coaxed her to come see her. I told her "We are not here to see that dog, this is the one we came to see" After we got to see the Airedale, the shelter said "You probably wont get to adopt her... too many people are on the list to take her" The following Thursday, we are driving down to San Diego and my wife was looking at her phone. She said "Remember that blonde pit mix I was looking at?" I said "yeah, what about her?" She said "They are going to put her down tomorrow" I said "No they arent. When we are down here in SD, we are going to drive up and get her out" About 4 hours later, just before they were about to close. I walked in and said "Give me that pup!" They said "Nope. Sorry, she is going to be destroyed tomorrow" We begged and pleaded but nope. That bitch behind the counter was determined this dog was going to die. While I am begging to get that dog out, my wife and kids were playing with her. Such a sweet dog. We go home devastated and trying to think how we can save her. We get on FB and reach out to friends. One hooked us up to a rescue who said "Sorry, no promises but we will try our best" 0900 the next morning we get a call... "Where do you want her?... WE GOT HER!" To this day, I am so grateful that Rescues walk this earth with us. It takes a special person to do what they do. They are appreciated. Without them, I would not know what I could have done and who knows, I would hate to think what could have happened to my dog This is my pup... this is Brandi. She is my buddy and NO ONE greets me when I come home like she does. She is protective of her home against all evil squirrels, ducks and rabbits that cross her window. Geese flying overhead are no match to her barking... LOL. She is one of a kind and my life is so much better with her in it. Thank you for people like you that save these pups... This is the post we saw from the shelter the day before the rescue saved her... Heartbreaking isn't it?  |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By FluffyTheCat: I'm on the phone with him now. He is talking intelligibly and he seems ok. But he's worried about the dogs. He needs people to step up and help. He has 22 dogs and they need homes. He's not going to abandon his post and go to hospital. He cares more about the dogs than he does about himself. So if you want to help him, adopt a dog. Maybe adopt two. They're all good dogs. So please get a dog. What state is he in? I would take one if we can get here |

Standing by as needed. Can be on station for a few days. Have tent, hammock, and a truck I can sleep in if needed.
Told my wife about the situation, she said we need to send one of our wimmenz in to handle things as dudes are dumbasses. Whoever is going in first, bring your wimmenz as it would lead to a better run operation and more organized. |

Shitty news. Still gathering information and everything is all up in the air.
Joker1 was helicoptered to a metro hospital and it's serious. There is a facebook page for his rescue efforts with this info, and folks on there are discussion helping the dogs. Our local member is reaching out to help co-ordinate, and let them know there's another community willing to help. And to make sure they're not just turned over to animal control. Should have pictures of each dog in a day or so. Plan is to head down tomorrow most likely. Will update. |

Don't take the question the wrong way, seems like so many vouch for him, was just curious... Is his issue heart related? |

I reached out to a large regional rescue (with Joker1's blessing) to see if they could help with the bulk of the dogs. The more information I can get to them the better. |
