Just one small thing for all the dog owners out there. July 5 is one of the bigest intake days for us. Strays all over the place. Dogs don't understand the concept of fireworks....

Ok folks..I have a funny story to tell about some of the animals at the shelter....cause yes it does happen on occasion....I’m going to start by explaining that one of the things about working there that gives me the most anxiety is trying to introduce two dogs who don’t know each other into a cage that’s 6x5 on the inside and 10x5 on the outside. I’m always worried they are gonna beat the crap out of each other.
So the other day this guy brings back his dog that he adopted from us. Basically because the dog is still a puppy and is not getting enough attention and is chewing up everything in his house...pfft...
So this dog Deagan, is kinda timid and very scared so I decide to give him some space alone for a bit to calm down. We happened to be having a slow day so we had a couple empty cages. Later we get a cute little stray...looked an awful lot like Degan and she was the happiest little thing....great slobbery kisses (don’t tell anyone...we’re not allowed to kiss them). So I decide Degan could probably use a girl friend. We go into the cage they sniff each other and then pretty much go to their corners and ignore each other. Cool at least they aren’t trying to kill each other or me.
Did I mention that all the kennels have these automatic water bowls attached to the walls? Metal bowls with floats that keep the water in the bowl no matter how much they drink. Ok...so a couple hours later I’m sitting on the floor in the kennel area vaccinating a litter of puppies when I hear behind me the sound of water running. I look over my shoulder and there is Degan, standing in his water dish scooping out all the water with his paws and basically throwing it at his new girlfriend.
So I get up go over to their kennel to see what’s up. The whole inside of the kennel was water logged from top to bottom....both dogs were drenched from head to toe. The bed was flipped up on its side and their blanket was dragged half in and half out. The dog in the next kennel gives me this look like “Can you ask the neighbors to please keep it down?” Finally they notice I’m standing there. They both stop what they are doing come to the front of the cage tongues lolling out and give me this look like “What? You wanted us to get along.”.
I started laughing so hard all I could do was to say “Carry on.” And they did....lol. They must have chased each other around that place for another two hours, and emptied that bowl like a dozen times, before they finally curled up together on the floor and went to sleep. Too bad I had to wake them to dry them off some and clean up the mess they made.
K....just had to share...it was the best laugh I had all week.

Nice story there Scrappy! Phalon I feel for you on the catbath. They can be a bear, but to see them all wet is normally worth the effort. We had another frog incident around the house. Of course I was all alone other then the 4 legged kiddos. And all the sudden I see this treefrog jumping across the room on the wall. I decide to call Z and tell her there is a frog in the house and tease her, telling her she has to come home to catch it. While on the Voicemail (like she is busy or something at work...sigh) The frog goes nutz and the cat saw it and all heck broke loose...I don't hang up the phone but run for a bag to capture the frog cause I don't want the kitty to eat it. So here I am screaming through the house telling the cat to drop it and begging the frog to get in the bag all caught on tape for the whole world to hear...at least everyone that Z lets hear via her viocemail...Lets just say she uses the message to get a good laugh when she needs it. To end the story I convinced the frog to jump into the bag and released it out on the patio...the cat strutted around the house the rest of the night for he was "The Man" and I finally calmed down walked over to the phone and hung up. Too bad you can't delete those things before they are heard.

BOLL, GP. Omg, that is too funny. I've done the same...left the phone off the hook. One time that comes to mind was a very long time ago when I had a boss I didn't really care for too much. After leaving a message on her answering machine about something work related, I hung up the phone....or thought I did. What came out of my mouth after hanging up - or thinking I'd hung up - was mostly muttering to myself but for a few very choice words....which her answering machine picked up very clearly. Oops.

Oh...and to get back on topic here, your frog story reminded me of my toad. No, no...not hubs - he is a prince. I mean the toad that lives in my garden off my front porch.
I was watering yesterday, and was surprised to see my the hens and chicks in my strawberry pot moving. I thought I was seeing things. It is very, very hot and dry, but never did I imagine the plants would actually stretch and reach for the water like they seemed to be doing. They looked like they were going to push themselves right out of the pot.
Then, Mr. Toad appears....out from underneath the hens and chicks were he'd buried himself, trying to keep cool, I'm sure. He sat on the edge of the pot for the longest time, stretching and cooling himself in the spray from the sprinkler before he finally hopped off. Was kind of cute - in a warty toad kind of way.

Phalon I could visualize the plant stretching out for that water. and I don't mind toads or frogs as long as they are outside...
Today I decided that I needed to relax on the back porch. Sitting in the sun, eyes closed and the next thing I know there are 3 baby lizards jumping on me. Guess I looked like an giant amusement park. Well I hope they like roller coasters cause my legs went up I then hopped out of the chair and flailed around doing what I can describe as the popcorn dance from preschool. Being sure that I stomp in different directions each time cause I don't want to splat the poor things, or clean them off my feet. EWWW So I watch them scamper off into the iris and I breath again and go inside. 20 minutes later I go in to use the restroom...I know TMA, but it is necessary in the laugh factor...Anyway I do what normal people do to empty their bladder and the next thing I know there is a lizard crawling in a direction I sooo did not want it to go...AHHHH I run through the house with my pants around my ankles...(such an attractive sight...I encourage all to try this just once with your loveinterest in the same vacinity) The lizard survived but I am tramatized for life. Z yells in...what is wrong and I said the lizard was trying to kill me. And that is definately NOT the way I want to die.

How many dogs Does it take to change a light bulb.....LMAO
1. Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?
2. Border Collie: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.
3. Dachshund: You know I can't reach that stupid lamp!
4. Rottweiler: Make me
5. Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark.
6. Lab: Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeeeeeeeze, please, please, please!
7. German Shepherd: I'll change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make sure I haven't missed any, and make just one more perimeter patrol to see that no one has tried to take advantage of the situation.
8. Jack Russell Terrier: I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture.
9. Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb!
10. Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.
11. Chihuahua: Yo quiero Taco Bulb. Or "We don't need no stinking light bulb"
12. Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares?
13. Australian Shepherd: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little circle...
14. Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.
The Cat's Answer:
Dogs do not change light bulbs. People change light bulbs. So, the real question is:
How long will it be before I can expect some light, some dinner, and a massage?"

Howdy all....
Got a story to share about the newest member (if only temporary) of my household.
I brought home a foster puppy. Cutest little thing. Six weeks old. Shepherd mix, with a little Boxer I think. Brown with a cute little black mask and a white stripe up his forehead. He had to be fostered because he is too small and underweight to be in the shelter right now. He's a little monster...chases the big dogs around and tries to bite their legs. The big dogs are being very tolerant so far...too funny to see him galloping down the hall after my heeler/sight-hound mix. And you can kinda tell that the big dog is enjoying it because she stops every once in a while and lets him catch up.
Apparently I get to name him....I'll take suggestions if anyone wants to throw one out there. We have been throwing out a few already: Rorschach, cause he has the most interesting little black spots on his nose. Patriot, not sure I like this one. Mom keeps calling him "Little Dude" which I think is funny because usually my mother is very big on speaking proper English. I'm becoming fairly partial to "Crash". He's still fairly uncoordinated so when he runs he gets about three steps then falls down.
He goes back in three weeks...or after he weighs at least ten pounds. There's a pool going around at work on how long it will take me to decide to keep him. I gotta be strong....he's going back...but he is so damn cute....
OK Madam P...where's the puppy story you promised?

On a side note....my shelter is working with local disater relief groups to provide a place for displaced persons and their animals from the Hurricane to go. We are getting some by bus tomorrow. Anyone who lives in my area who wants to volunteer or make a donation can contact the local red cross.

ASPCA
Rescue Diary
Evening Update, September 7
As reported by Sandy Monterose of the ASPCA’s National Outreach department, ASPCA staffers have teamed up with others from organizations such as American Humane Association, Spring Farm CARES (NY) and the Houston SPCA, under the leadership of the Louisiana SPCA, to take to the flooded streets of New Orleans searching for abandoned pets. Working on a grid system, the five teams of three rescuers each waded through waist-high, fetid water, pulling boats loaded with equipment and supplies, successfully avoiding injury on fallen tree limbs and downed power lines. This hot, sticky, frustrating day netted 25 cats, 14 dogs, one pet snake and a gentleman who been overlooked by earlier rescuers. (Land and water rescues totaled 140 animals on Tuesday, and they expect to retrieve 200 on Wednesday as more of the water recedes.) Rescue crews were pleasantly surprised to find the animals in relatively good condition, having been left adequate supplies by their fleeing owners.
At one home, rescuers came upon a pit bull chained to the front porch. As they neared, a frail man in his seventies came out of the house, and said he was fine but gratefully accepted all the dog food the team had with them. The authorities were coming for him tomorrow, he said.
Your Generosity Continues Because of your generosity, we are able to send an additional $150,000 to the Louisiana SPCA for their work in Gonzales, LA. They are currently caring for 350 dogs and 150 cats at this staging area north of New Orleans. An additional 600 animals are being housed at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. More than one thousand animals have been relocated to Houston, TX, where the Houston SPCA has opened up a third staging area in a vacant car dealership.
Attention Horse Lovers The famous carriage mules of the French Quarter, along with 65 other horses, have been removed to safety. And the New Orleans mounted police unit safely got out all their equine partners. They are currently stabled at the Franklinton, LA, fairgrounds.
With a Little Help from their Friends, Texas Style Texas Animal Control Association (TACA) mobilized a number of animal control units with experienced field personnel from all over the state to head to New Orleans to round up more abandoned pets and strays, reports Cathy Clark, TACA executive secretary.
James Bias, executive director of the SPCA of Texas in Dallas, reports that after having taken in hundreds of animals to ensure that the Houston SPCA had room for evacuees' pets, his organization did a record 315 adoptions last weekend. (All of these animals were turned in for adoption or were picked up as strays before Hurricane Katrina.)
Evening Update, September 6:
Funding Rescue Efforts On Tuesday, the ASPCA contributed $25,000 to sponsor the Louisiana Veterinary Medical Association's Computer/Phone Bank for Stranded Pets, set up at Louisiana State University's School of Veterinary Medicine in Baton Rouge. This is in addition to wiring $50,000 to the Houston SPCA, where hundreds of affected animals are being cared for, $20,000 to the Humane Society of Louisiana, and $50,000 to the Louisiana SPCA for emergency expenses. An additional minimum commitment of $250,000 has been pledged to LA/SPCA's rebuilding fund. These donations have been made possible because of the generosity and compassion of friends like you.
Reuniting Pets and their People As New Orleans animals are brought to the staging area in Gonzales, LA, they are being photographed by Cajun Clicker Computer Organization to expedite reuniting them with their families. The Petfinder.com website is hosting the database of information on these displaced pets, which is expected to be up and running very soon.
Austin Partnership The ASPCA is working with the Austin Humane Society to establish a hotline for hurricane evacuees from Louisiana and Mississippi who need help in locating their animals. The number there is (512) 646-PETS. To date, the Austin Humane Society has taken in over 75 animals and reunited 15 pets with their people.
Houston Partnership The Houston SPCA is now receiving animals from Louisiana at two intake centers. They have set up a network of agencies around the country to provide long-term care for the animals. Contact them at (713) 802-0555.
More good news The animals and employees at the Audubon Zoo are fine and well stocked with food and fresh water. With the exception of two river otters, all of the animals survived unscathed. More than sixty horses have been rescued, vetted, and evacuated to Texas. On Tuesday, a large number of horses were being rescued and, once triaged in New Orleans, sent to Lamar Dixon Expo Center in Gonzales, LA.
Afternoon Update, September 6:
Finally, things are happening in the field. The ASPCA Rescue Team-led by Kelly Harrington, director of ASPCA Disaster Response Services, and assisted by Sandy Monterose of National Outreach, Humane Law Enforcement agent Rich Rahab and Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital's Margaret McLaughlin-is now based at the Louisiana SPCA staging area in Gonzales, LA, and is currently in the city of New Orleans. Two more crew members-Chris Fagan and Allison Cardona from the ASPCA Cares department-will arrive later today. The crew is taking its lead from the Louisiana SPCA, and today's mission involves rescuing a large number of animals purportedly stranded at two hospitals.
Short & Sweet A nurse from an area hospital called the ASPCA Hurricane Hotline about her two Siamese cats, who had been placed on the upper floor of the hospital. When ASPCA Public Information staffers spoke with the nurse, they found that the cats had been rescued, and were brought to the Louisiana SPCA staging area, where they'll be held until they can be reunited with their "mom."
Louisiana's Audubon Zoo is stocked with feed and fresh water. With the exception of a pair of river otters, all the zoo's animals are fine.
Evening Update, September 5:
Don't believe everything you hear. The ASPCA has investigated allegations that family pets in Louisiana are being taken from their owners and shot. We have found absolutely no truth to this widely circulated rumor. According to reliable sources, one dog was shot and killed after he tried to attack an officer. There is no order to shoot animals unless they are endangering law enforcement officers. You can help keep a volatile situation from becoming even worse by checking out rumors before passing them on.
clearing up false information You may have heard the rumor that evacuees in Louisiana are being ordered to abandon their animals. In some cases, they have had to leave their animals but there are many animal rescuers in the area. The Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine has assured us that every effort is being made to reunite animals and people. The LSU Veterinarian's Office is now coordinating all information about animals stranded in Louisiana. They have a 30-computer and phone bank set up, and are on site, so they are in the best position to combine data and forward it to rescue teams. In Louisiana, people reporting stranded animals or have found an animal should call (888) 773-6489. Outside Louisiana, people should call (225) 925-3980. Information may also be e-mailed to katrina@ldaf.louisiana.gov. The LSU School of Veterinary Medicine website is loaded with very good information and clear instructions.
Morning Update, September 5:
The ASPCA has received at least 50 emails and calls regarding 50 to 150 animals stranded on the roof of the Windy Boggs Medical Center on North Jefferson Davis Parkway in New Orleans. The animals are pets belonging to hospital staff, cared for by one dedicated doctor who purportedly refused to be evacuated with the other staff members. As a result, he and the animals were quickly running out of food and water.
As of Monday morning, a caravan of animal control vehicles, zodiac boats, equipment and personnel from groups including ASPCA, HSUS, Code 3, United Animal Nation, ARL of Boston and the Louisiana SPCA were en route to New Orleans to rescue the animals from Murphy’s Animal Hospital. The caravan will also pick up any animals they find stranded along the route.
The ASPCA and other organizations, including HSUS, Best Friends, United Animal Nation, Petfinder.com, are working to identify and log pets in need of rescue in affected areas. A database is being compiled and provided to animal rescuers, and will be posted on Petfinder.com shortly.
Louisiana Good news! Thirty-five dogs have been loaded onto the Rescue Waggin in Gonzales, and are on their way to safe haven at the Houston SPCA! Additionally, 75 dogs have been rescued from the Superdome.
Austin, Texas Good news from the Austin evacuation center, where the first evacuee dog has been reunited with his owner! This puppy's guardian is a 14-year-old girl, who arrived at the Austin evacuation center with her family members. The puppy was a gift from her father, whose whereabouts are unknown at this time.
The Austin Humane Society (AHS), in conjunction with The City of Austin Town Lake Animal Center and the ASPCA, has 75 evacuated animals in temporary care. Staffers are still working around the clock at relief facilities to help provide evacuee pets with a safe haven. AHS has set up a Pet Hotline (512-646-PETS) for evacuees moving to Austin who need to find care, placement and supplies for their family pets. Eight pets have now been reunited with their displaced owners. Click here to see photos taken at the Austin evacuation center.
Morning Update, September 3:
As of Friday evening, we were close to one million dollars in donations for grants! Thank you to everyone who has given so generously. If you would like to donate, you can call our toll-free number, (866) 275-3923, or give online. The more money we raise, the more animals we can help.
Several ASPCA National Outreach staffers spent a good part of Friday tracking down large, extra-large and giant collapsible dog crates that we could purchase and expedite to the Houston SPCA and the Louisiana SPCA staging area. We were able to locate and purchase 1,000 crates.
The PETCO Foundation has an additional 90 crates en-route to the Houston SPCA.
Pets in Distress (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) has food and equipment ready to ship to several points in Mississippi and Louisiana.
MISSISSIPPI The ASPCA trailer arrived in Jackson, MS, at 9:30 Friday evening. They will keep us apprised of their efforts over the weekend.
The Mississippi Animal Refuge League (MARL) reports that HSUS and the State Dept. of Agriculture are operating an emergency shelter at the Mississippi State Fairgrounds in Jackson.
There are 500-plus animals in Tyler Town, MS, evacuated from the Humane Society of Louisiana and the St. Francis Animal Sanctuary. They are in need of a generator and supplies.
LOUISIANA SPCA REPORT: The Louisiana SPCA has begun rescue efforts for animals left behind in the Greater New Orleans area. Animals are being brought to the Lamar-Dixon Expo Center in Gonzales, LA, which is serving as a staging center for displaced animals. They will soon be uploading photos of displaced pets onto Petfinder.com for people to look for lost pets.
HOUSTON SPCA REPORT The Houston SPCA has been doing a heroic job taking in animals from the Louisiana SPCA staging area in Gonzales and from families seeking refuge in Red Cross shelters. As of Friday morning, the Houston SPCA had already admitted 700 animals and expects that they could receive 1,000 more. The Houston SPCA staff is working round-the-clock to care for animals so that families devastated by this tragedy will not also be confronted with losing their pets.
HELP FOR HORSES Dr. Andrew Lang, director of the ASPCA Equine Program, will be issuing a grant to the Emergency Equine Response Unit to purchase “water buffaloes” (300-500 gallon tanks) and pumps, and an extra diesel tank for their truck, so they can head south to assist in the rescue efforts.
Late afternoon update, September 2:
As we write this, ASPCA Southern Regional Shelter Outreach Manager Laura Lanza is busy compiling lists to help with rescues and contacting local shelters in affected areas to determine their immediate needs. Having spent 18 years as a director at Calcasieu Parish Animal Services, Laura is very familiar with the Gulf Region, and has many friends and colleagues in the area. She is serving as the ASPCA point person for calls and email inquiries about relief efforts.
We'll be checking in with Laura as she begins to receive feedback from groups, and we'll share it with you. We know how frustrating it is for those who are so faraway, watching television reports and wanting to do something to help. Please check our website for updates often--we'll keep you up-to-date on new information, progress made, and ways that you can help.
AUSTIN, TEXAS A large number of people and animals have been evacuated to Austin, where the Red Cross has set up a shelter for people at the Toney Berger Center on Highway 290. ASPCA Shelter Outreach director Karen Medicus, a former shelter director in Austin, is helping local groups coordinate efforts. Many people are calling the Red Cross, asking about shelter for their pets. They have identified a staging area for animals who may be brought here. We'll be checking with Karen for updates and pictures. For more information about efforts in Austin, call (512) 646-PETS.
JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI Our team of veterinarians, technicians and medical staff are right now on their way to Jackson. Soon to follow them is one of our ASPCA Cares mobile veterinary clinics.
Noon Update, September 2:
HOUSTON SPCA The Houston SPCA has been working tirelessly to help the animal victims of Hurricane Katrina, and shelter staffers have taken on a lion’s share of the recovery efforts. They are housing 275 animals evacuated from the Louisiana SPCA, and last night alone they took in 300 more animals, including pets belonging to evacuees staying in Houston-area shelters.
The ASPCA has just purchased 300 crates, which will be drop-shipped immediately to the Houston SPCA. Additionally, both PETCO and ACES (Animal Care and Equipment Services) have been helping us with donations for shelters. PETCO sent the Houston SPCA 100 large dog crates, and ACES has contributed leashes.
Evening Update, September 1:
ASPCA ON-SITE EFFORTS A group of ASPCA employees led by Kelly Harrington, director of the ASPCA Disaster Response Program, have left for Jackson, MS, to assist Code 3 with their rescue efforts. Accompanying Harrington are Humane Law Enforcement agent Richard Raheb; Margaret McLaughlin, director of Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital’s veterinary technicians; and Sandy Monterose, ASPCA National Outreach’s northeast manager. They are traveling in the fully equipped disaster vehicle, which includes a 40-foot trailer and a boat.
LOUSIANA SPCA REPORT The ASPCA’s National Outreach department has at last made contact with Laura Maloney, executive director of the Louisiana SPCA. All of the shelter’s animals were safely evacuated, and the group is now concentrating efforts on helping remove and relocate other animals from the area. Maloney and some of her staff are using a horse farm in Gonzales, LA, as their staging area. Violence in the New Orleans area is prohibiting them from getting close to the city, and they were turned away by the State Police for safety reasons.
Other Shelters in Louisiana: - The LA Humane Society has evacuated to Mississippi and all the animals and staff are safe. They have issued a bulletin for help. -The Bert Smith Jefferson Parish Animal Services evacuated to Washington Parish in the town of Franklenton. Reportedly, things are deteriorating there. Plans are underway to evacuate them to Gonzales, where the animals can be evaluated and moved out to the Houston SPCA. - There are still many shelters we have not heard from. Petfinder.com is maintaining a list of updates from shelters and rescues.
MISSISSIPPI There has been almost no communication from the Humane Society of South Mississippi (Gulfport).
