Dear Friends<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On
\nDecember 21st, 2010, NJ Sheltie Rescue rescued 16 dogs living in
\ndeplorable conditions in a one family home in Brooklyn, New York. These
\nShelties were being kept by a hoarder who we know has been keeping
\nShelties in this inhumane environment for over ten years.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Though
\nthese dogs are in NY and out of the area we cover, it seems no one
\nwanted to step up to help them. Knowing these dogs were being kept the
\nway they were, we could not turn our backs on them knowing they so
\ndesperately needed our help.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
These Shelties are being kept
\nin a house with no running water, electricity or heat. The owner goes
\nto the house every few days to dump a bag of food and water. He no
\nlonger resides in the house because it is unfit for human occupancy.
\nThe windows are covered with cardboard allowing no sunlight, the house
\nis filthy and infested with mice. These Shelties are in total darkness
\n24 hours a day, everyday, and have never been outside in daylight. They
\nhave never known the simple pleasure of rolling in grass, basking in
\nthe warm sun, smelling the fresh air or going for a short walk. Many
\nhave been living this way for over ten years. The owner reports that
\nthere are, approximately, five feral Shelties living behind the walls
\nin the house. All the dogs are unsocialized and scared of the most
\ncommon every day sounds such as drawing a shade or the sound of
\ntelevision.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
There are still, approximately, 20-25 more
\ndogs living in this house, waiting to be saved. We would like to help
\nthem, but unfortunately due to the cost of rescuing these 16 dogs and
\nthe cost of caring for the dogs turned in to us weekly, our funds are
\ndrastically and dangerously low. So we are reaching out to all of you
\nwith the hopes that you might consider making a donation to NJ Sheltie
\nRescue so we may be able to save the rest of these dogs and also give
\nthem a chance to live out the rest of their lives as valued and
\nrespected family members. We do not want to leave any dogs behind.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If
\nyou would like to make a tax deductible donation to our rescue, it
\nwould be greatly appreciated. Every little bit will help us get closer
\nto our goal!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Lastly, if anyone would like to help foster
\none of these special needs dogs, please do not hesitate to contact us.
\nWe are going to need, approximately, 20 foster homes. A very secure
\nfenced in yard is needed for these dogs. The only other requirement is a
\nlot of love and patience. All they truly need is a resting place to
\nhang their Sheltie hats and be shown that the world is not a scary
\nplace.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If you would like to foster one of these special Shelties,<\/div>\n
please contact Julie @ <span>sheltielove94@aol.com<\/div>\n
