United States Animal Protection is takin it to the Streets

Remember the heart wrenching pleas from the volunteer's at the Leland Mississippi shelter a couple months ago? Puppies were freezing to death? The USAP stepped up and the shelter received so many igloo dog houses that the volunteer's had to say "We Have Enough!" They are so thankful for the support everyone has shown, that is why when I recieved this last desperate plea, we could not let it go unanswered!! USAP says "LELAND HELP IS ON THE WAY!"

The Leland Mississippi Shelter is in such dire need that Jamie and I have decided to make an emergency run from Rushville Indiana to Leland Mississippi. The United States Animal Protection, a national animal rights group is helping with the van, vaccines and more, the volunteer's at ARRF are giving us a place to stay overnight and chipping in towards gas. The situation:Puppies have been freezing to death outside, rats are eating the dog food, sewage backs up into the shelter. The City of Leland owns the building but will not even provide food for the animals. The 4 volunteers have exhausted themselves physically and financially. In addition to the shelter being overflowing, a hoarder is willing to give up the 42 dogs he has. Leland is in dire circumstances! We will carry dog food, vaccines, tools to make necessary shelter repairs and provide womanpower to coordinate a weekend rescue effort. We will also be documenting the conditions at the shelter and the many starving strays in Leland. We hope to do live updates at night on the web depending on the internet connection available.

If you are a rescue and are willing to take some of the Leland dogs, please message Gabby or email Linda at ubenframed@cinci.rr.com. We are also working to coordinate with rescues along our route home in hopes that we can find safety for the left over animals. We will be traveling through Cincinnati OH, Louisville KY, Bowling Green KY, Nashville TN, Memphis TN, Leland MS. Interstates I61, I40,I65. We leave for Leland on Friday March 28 and return early on March 31th. To see the conditions at the shelter visit www.arrf-arrf-org

We are raising money to help with the cost of the van rental, gas money, supplies, vaccines etc. Any cash left over will be given to the voluteers at ARRF who take care of the dogs at this destitute shelter.

Thank you,

Paypal donations can be made to ubenframed@cinci.rr.com
