| Barked: Thu Dec 8, '11 1:43pm PST |  |  |  |  | I got Daisy from a high kill shelter and it was the best thing I could have done. I not only saved a life but received a wonderful new family member. Daisy is wonderful, and so loving. The staff at the shelter work hard to save as many dogs and cats as they can and use the social networks to help with adoptions. That's how I found Daisy was one of the staff posted her pic on Facebook and asked would someone help her. They were doing everything they could to get her adopted before they put her to sleep. She was being overlooked mainly because she was a senior and also because she was heartworm positive. Not many people want a senior heartworm positive dog. Glad I did though. She's now heartworm negative and such a joy. I hope she has many happy years with us. My next adoption will be through this shelter. |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Fri Nov 11, '11 8:31am PST |  |  |  |  | Thanks for your post. I was in a high kill shelter and was being overlooked because of my age. I was fortunate that my new Mama wanted me. She tells everyone when she gets a chance how awesome senior dogs are. |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Wed Aug 31, '11 2:37pm PST |  |  |  |  | I adopted Daisy a few months ago. Daisy is a Senior and was at a local high kill shelter. In addition to being a senior, she was heart worm positive which was pretty much going to be a death sentence for her. One of the staff posted her pic on Facebook asking if anyone would adopt her. It was most likely that no one was going to adopt a senior heart worm positive dog and although I wasn't planning to adopt another dog at the time something about her picture made me want her. She received heart worm treatments and is now heart worm negative. She has severe arthritis but is receiving treatments for that. She is doing great and I am so glad I got her. She is such a pleasure. After this experience with her, I will continue to adopt senior dogs in the future. She was already housebroken, is not destructive, doesn't require a lot of exercise and is calm. She enjoys running in the backyard but also enjoys laying on the sofa and watching tv with me. Many positives in adopting a senior. |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Mon Jan 24, '11 6:26pm PST |  |  |  |  | Hershey - I just will never understand why or how someone could do something like that to a sweet fur. But right now they can torture a dog or cat like that and just get a little slap on the wrist if that. It is so sad. I hope we can get the law changed so people who do these awful things will spend some time in prison. Maybe you can let people in your area know that we need to push our legislators to pass this bill. The more people that back it, the better our chances.
If you went to JCJC you do know where I live. |  |  |  |  |

I see that you live in Mississippi also. I'm a member of MS-Fact and we are working really hard to get Mississippi laws changed so that abuse and cruelty to our pets is a first offense felony. Currently it is not a felony. Maybe you can help spread the word and help by writing to your Senator and Representative for their support on this bill. You can read all about it at http://www.ms-fact.org/
We need all the help we can get to get this bill passed. |  |  |  |  |
