Joker 1 posted that he was having a seemingly urgent health issue. He was more concerned for the dogs than himself. Thread was nuked, so my assumption is that mods are engaging on getting assistance to him. He specifically asked that no one involve local authorities. I'm sure that members here will be willing to step up with help when a plan has been set up. For now he and the dogs need prayer.

Joker, please let us know you are going to hospital and if you need the members here to step up and jump in to help your pups. I know several members know you personally, especially on the dog transports. Good folks want to help.

I sincerely hope that anyone who actually knows him IRL and has his contact information, is getting in touch with him ASAP in order to:
(a) help him find a temporary solution for the dogs, and (b) get him to an Emergency Room as quickly as possible Based on his posts in the thread, he is not going to agree to (b) until (a) is in place. |

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. |

I have one of his recues laying in my living room right now and she's a wonderful, friendly dog.
I'm out of space, but I would encourage anyone considering getting a dog to take a look at his dogs. He's a damn good judge of dogs and their demeanor. I'm sure many here can attest to the same.

I have a Semper Fi rescue dog. I am not far from Joker. I am currently in a wheelchair and ZERO help on taking care of his dogs. If someone is willing to take a week off work and care for his dogs, I'll raffle a gun or 2 to help keep food on your table. I'm deadass serious.

I dropped a note in the HTF since sometimes the two don’t always cross for members. Hopefully he will take this serious and get medical care. As a alumni of his program I don’t want to see anything put him down for the count.
My graduate says come on let’s get this done!  Attached File |
