Dont worry We are going to get them all

Quote From: popeyenyc

On today's show (Monday, September 12th), while Dr.Phil was wading through the bacteria-ridden flood waters, three dogs were passed who were stranded on house tops. The rescuer's response to Dr. Phil's question about saving the animals brought a neutral acceptance from Dr.Phil.  

   

Inter-[expletive-rogative?  

   

Whether the dogs will die or not is beside the point. I every reason to believe that I will be dead in another decade or two. The Rescuer will die. Dr. Phil will die. We all will.  

   

But to just abandon the poor dumb brutes because they will probably die? In a country where we pamper our pets? In fact, right after that segment on my local TV, a cute commercial aired about Kitty Litter. A show being paid for in part by pet-owners, no, pet-lovers, has the star not even appearing concerned?  

   

Something is woefully amiss here.  

   

   

   

  

I am with a group that is in Louisiana and have rescued over three thousand animals as of sunday 9/11, Here is the breakdown: 

  

Confirmed Totals to Date: 3815

   

 

 Dogs and Cats             2529                        
  • Horses: 121

       

  • Other Animals: 1165 birds, hamsters, some wildlife...etc.

I am leaving again tonight for a 9 hour drive and then will work non stop with twenty five others through saturday night and then will come home, it is amazing how much we love the animals. The people were told they could not bring there animals, next time,,,, just bring them and they will have to figure out something. I wont stop going back until they are all safe.
