[MR] Fw: OT. Dogs Desperate for a Home!

Tue Mar 17 18:59:12 PDT 2009

  I don't know anything more about this offer. But they're beautiful dogs.   

I believe Samoyeds are a breed of "husky" from Siberia.         

I had to remove a beautiful picture of the snow white dogs, because it made
the message FAR too big for the Merry Rose.

      I received this this evening.  We are having our own troubles with ours,
and can't possibly do anything. Know anyone who can?      Vicky and Ron

These dogs need a new home..Send this to everyone you know that might know
someone wanting a wonderful pet..

There are 7 pure-bred female Samoyeds who need a "forever home" because their
owner/breeder, Cathy Pendleton, is losing her battle with breast cancer. She
can no longer care for her dogs and has been moved to Hospice after being in
the hospital for a week.                                        
I'm giving this a wider distribution than usual, so some of you may receive it
more than once. Even though you may not be on a "rescue" group email, I'm
including you in the hopes that you can forward on to the widest distribution
so that these girls all have a chance to find the perfect new home. The dogs
are in the Atlanta, GA, area, but they will allow them to be adopted out of
state.                                        
All the owner/breeder wants is for all of these girls to get good homes.
Currently, they are not wanting to place any of the dogs in foster care
because they are trying to move the dogs only once. My understanding is that
the older animals have been spayed. Because she is a breeder, the younger dogs
are not spayed; however the new family would need to have the dog spayed if
she is less than seven years. (The dogs range in age from 1.5 years to more
senior dogs.)                                        
One look at their picture (below) shows how extraordinarily beautiful these
dogs are. (I count 8 in the picture, but perhaps one has been placed already.)
All are healthy and well cared for, up to date on shots, heartworm, flea
treatment, etc. The new "forever" home will need to have a fenced yard with
sufficient space for an active dog. The folks who are placing the Samoyeds for
the owner may do a home visit either before, after, or both to ensure that the
dog and their new family are a good fit.

Thanks for giving this the widest distribution possible. Following is the
email from the lady who is managing the adoption of these 7 lovely ladies.

Hello, everyone,                                        
It is with great sadness to pass along that my dog breeder, Cathy Pendleton,
whom I love and treasure, is losing her battle with breast cancer. She can no
longer care for her dogs. She is in hospice after being in the hospital for a
week.                                        
We are in the process of placing her Samoyeds. If you know of anyone who would
like a sweet natured, playful pet, please let me know. She has all girls who
range from 1.5 years old to more senior dogs. All are healthy and have been
very well taken care of. New homes need to have space for an active dog and a
fenced in back yard. We may do a home visit to ensure that these precious dogs
and their new family are the right fit. There is no cost, but the new family
will need to spay the dog if it is less than 7 years old.                     

They can move out of state. The new family needs to be willing to stay in
touch with the "Sammy family." We will want to know how they are doing and if
it is working out, etc.                                        
Let me know if you have any leads. Thanks for your help!
