Selling Used Dogs
So…. big announcement. I’ve recently completed a book entitled “Selling Used Dogs.” This is a book about saving dogs that are doomed at shelters. I thought of many ways of marketing this book, selling it, promoting it, etc. but thought that this information is too valuable not to GIVE AWAY. So that is exactly what I plan to do. Selling …
Adopt Ozzie…. the Prince of Barn-ness
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApxGGz20WXs&feature=channel_page Ozzie was dropped off at the shelter in a shopping cart. For the first two days he was in a state of shock and merely laid on the floor of his cell. I took him out and slowly he got up and licked my hand. A few days later I got a call that he was die to be …
The Breeder – Your Friend
I probably have less of a problem with breeders than some people in rescue, but there is still an underlying issue that needs to be addressed. So long as there are 5 million shelter animals dying in shelters, why do breeders continue? The biggest problem with breeders is that most are not checked out, which means you are dealing with a potential of puppy …
Leave NONE Behind – the rescue of Daisy aka Annie
Last week I posted “DO NOT ADOPT THIS DOG” It was my ploy to see who would step up. This campaign was a huge success. I found a home for the dog I named Daisy. Daisy was the dog that was in the cell with Hope… we all remember Hope. Well, I had a home for Hope, but I knew …

One of my happiest days… All of you know how much saving Hope has meant to me and it is a dream come true. I pulled Hope from the downtown animal shelter on Thursday and drove her to San Diego. I had a few people offer to do it for me, but I had to do this myself. I almost …
A Worthwhile Drive
I receive hundreds of emails and/or phone calls each and every week about dogs that need rescue, dogs that are about to die, people giving up their dogs… so, you can imagine how happy I am when I receive a call from someone who wants to actually rescue a dog. That was the case last week. Someone was interested in …
Saving Tina
I’ve said it many times: “When my phone rings, the clicker method didn’t work.” I’ve gone into kennels of some really tough dogs. Dogs even the shelter employees don’t wanna mess with, and I always come out with a new friend. I like the tough ones, they make me smile, cause they usually always have a story. How do I convince them …
The Current Rescue
Instead of backtracking, which I might do in the future, let me tell you about my current rescue. She is a young lady named May, a 2 year old Chinese Shar Pei. I met her at the local animal shelter. I don’t need to say which one, as I will try to curb my tongue, at least this week. May …
