For my Valentine
Can anyone give this guy a home for Valentine's Day?
Charlie Boy is a senior hound who is on "THE LIST". This poor boy was most likely dumped by his hunter dad because he was getting old and need to stop for a rest. Charlie Boy is about 50 lbs and around 7 years old. He is VERY friendly and will jump into a back of any truck with the tailgate down. He is ready to ride and be loved. PLEASE save Charlie Boy... He is at a shelter that gasses or uses heart sticking* to euthanize the dogs. Both very painful ways to die.
We are totally full so we need an adopter or long term foster ( truly long term-must be will to stay with it through thick and thin with this 'young' man). Sponsorship also welcome-see below.
*Intracardial injections, commonly know as heart sticks, is a rather inhumane way to euthanize an animal that is not comatose(or nearly comatose) or heavily sedated. A needle and syringe containing sodium pentobarbital is passed through the chest wall and severely layers of muscle into the heart. However on an animal that isn't sedated or comatose this is hard to do because the body is in constant motion. It's not uncommon for the person administering the injection to miss and accidentally punctures the lungs and causes them to fill up with fluid. This is a VERY painful way to die.
In a shelter there is no reason for this to be done on an otherwise healthy dog. In a clinic however, it is often needed for dogs that need to be euthanized but have circulatory problems.

SMALL BREED RESCUE - HELP NEEDED
DAPPER
To all you small breed lovers out there - WE NEED YOUR HELP! Two breeders/puppy mills in Missouri released all their male Chihuahua's and several puppies. Some of these appear to be Pom Chi's as well.
In total there are 37 Chihuahua's and Chihuahua mixes. These kids can be adopted and the application fee is being waived for this group of dogs. We are going to start out listing a few and see how it goes from there. We need to vet and alter all these dogs and transport them so please if you can not adopt consider sponsoring a baby in need!
All the Chihuahua's range in age from puppies to 2 1/2 years old. All are males and young. You must fill out an application located HERE to be considered for adoption or fostering.
If you would like to sponsor the costs of saving one of these small breed dogs please donate below.

Policy Change on Paperwork
We have implemented a new policy in regards to paperwork. We are able to download your dogs paperwork into a PDF file which can be emailed to you. Since we spend so much time, energy, and money vetting these dogs we do not want paperwork to get lost in the shuffle. Each adopter will now receive their dogs paperwork prior to adoption and will need to sign off on it before the dog is given to you. This protects you, the dog, and us!

Help Save One - True to Our Mission
Help Save One was formed with the idea that making a difference in ONE dog’s life was better than not helping at all because the overpopulation issue is too overwhelming.
It was formed with the notion that saving ONE life was important. We have this crazy idea that our companion animals are NOT disposable. Help Save One believes no companion animal should ever be gassed.
Our focus will be on ONE dog at a time. The idea is if we take one dog every few days and make our website about them they will have a better chance of being adopted.
Are you ready to HELP SAVE ONE?
Is There Anything That Justifies This?
If gassing is too inhumane for serial killers and child rapists- than why is it OK for our innocent animals?
