Thanks to some caring pet advocates in Memphis, Mama Pibs has a super comfy bed to lie on tonight. I loves me some irresponsible public. Damn!
Updated: Shelter Pet of the Day
This senior lady Pibble (ID #238955) at the Memphis pound was submitted by reader Jody who writes: I saw her when I was at MAS. She is incredibly sweet. All that she wanted was to be petted. She would close her eyes as if she was in pure ecstasy, as I rubbed her face and … Continue reading Updated: Shelter Pet of the Day

Misery in a Photo
The troubled pound in Floyd Co Georgia lists animals on adoptapet.com. With each listing, there is a mission statement from the pound which begins: The Animal Control department controls the stray population of Floyd County by code enforcement, capture of strays, and education of citizens.

If some slack off, we are only as strong as our weakest link. I work in … Continue reading Work Ethic: Just Doing My Job

Love, The Spanish Inquisition
UPDATED: MAS Impounds Stray Mama Dog Without Pups
This mama dog was impounded by MAS yesterday. She appears to have a live litter on the ground somewhere, most likely in the area where she was picked up, which is unknown. That MAS would impound this dog without her pups is unfathomable to me. Where are the pups? This dog may have an owner … Continue reading UPDATED: MAS Impounds Stray Mama Dog Without Pups
Things That Make You Go “Hmm”
The troubled Spartanburg pound in SC spent $17 grand on lobbying last year according to the group's 990 tax form (page 10). The Spartanburg pound has no lobbyists on the payroll to my knowledge so I presume they gave the money to one of the large national animal groups who does. The form doesn't state … Continue reading Things That Make You Go “Hmm”
Shelter Pet of the Day
Despite the Memphis pound's listing for this pet, he looks to me to be an elderly male Boxer type dog. If you know of any Boxer rescues who may be able to help him, please share.
Name That Animal
