German Shepherd Dog Rescue Houston, Inc. Sadly, in Sept 2007,
German Shepherd
Rescue of Houston made the difficult decision to discontinue rescue
operations. As a parting message they write, "After eight years and the
successful placement of 580 abandoned German Shepherds, GSDR Houston is closing
its doors. Unfortunately a lack of new volunteers and monetary donations have
made it impossible to continue our mission to save and re-home German Shepherd
dogs in the Houston area."
Please don't let this happen to the rest
of the dedicated rescues on this list. Support Breed Rescue!

You can find any number of Web sites that review cars for all the usual reasons,
which is why we don't spend a lot of time dwelling on horsepower, handling and
other things that make the usual lot of car reviewer hearts go pitty-pat. We're
going to figure you know all about how many cup holders a car has, and how many
pre-teen soccer stars you can fit in it. So our reviews are about ... well ...
dogs. How well does a car hold dogs and their gear? How easy it is to get crates
into the back or otherwise restrain a dog for safety? Can you get air in the
back? Do the seats fold flat? And how economic is the vehicle?
What Can You Do If Your Pet Receives Negligent Veterinary Care?
The vast majority of veterinary care in New England is good. When
your dog is in physical trouble, a great emergency or regular veterinarian can
competently and kindly help you and your dog in what can seem like miraculous
ways. However, this is not always the case, as was seen in the tragic story of
Eli. http://www.gsrne.org/Eli_Memorial.htm

Maine Warden Service K-9 Unit Warden Ron Dunham and
K-9 Grace, the Service's first "rescue" dog donated by the German Shepherd
Rescue of New England, joined the Unit in 2001. Grace, a female German Shepherd,
is a true "workaholic" and a good choice even though she was a little old (three
years) when starting training. (NOTE: GSRNE also placed Dutchess, a Dutch
Shepherd, with the Maine Warden Service in 2005. http://www.state.me.us/ifw/aboutus/wardenservice/k-9/

Maine Friends of Animals
http://www.mfoa.net/news/companion_animals/dogs_chained_for_life_campaign_4.html
One of the most frequent requests MFOA hears from our members is
about doing something about what we call “dogs chained for life.” Time and again
we get calls about dogs continuously being left outside in inhumane conditions.
In our view it is arguably the most pervasive form of animal cruelty that we
presently have in the state, especially given Maine winters.
