At North Central L.A., CA pound--please please save them!!!
They have nothing but room at this pound--there is a huge new facility, with nearly 200 cages. The facility is AT LEAST HALF EMPTY. Yet this pound KEEPS KILLING ANIMALS. They have plants and water fountains, all kinds of decorations, but it's STILL A SLAUGHTERHOUSE. It's been barely a few days after the "grand opening" of the HUGE new facility, you would think they would at least hold off on killing for now--WRONG. They have ALREADY KILLED A BUNCH OF ANIMALS THIS WEEK at this pound, and they are KILLING MORE ANIMALS!!! The killing continues as always, please rise up and take action against the slaughter!
These are the 12 NEW dogs on the kill list--someone is working overtime, most of these dogs were posted late Sunday night, and the rest on Monday morning--someone obviously has time on their hands to condemn animals to kill instead of adopt. This pound often first kills off the newer additions to the kill list. But the dogs that have been on the kill list for a while are of course also in great danger. It's unbelievable that this pound is killing at all, let alone when they have SO MANY EMPTY CAGES. They also have ALL DOGS ALONE IN CAGES, which is absurd especially since the vast majority of dogs love the company of other dogs, and of course they could accommodate even more animals. But of course space has NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, they are just killing animals because that's what they have always done, BECAUSE THEY GET AWAY WITH IT.
The big semi-annual adoption event was just YESTERDAY, yet instead of sending a lot of animals, the pounds send almost NO animals even though there are usually 500-700 animals adopted at these events! Instead, LAAS is spending their time condemning animals to be killed, it's unbelievable! No matter how much room there is in the pounds, no matter how many new facilities they open, no matter how many adopters and rescuers try to save the animals, these slaughterhouses REFUSE to stop killing. Please, DEMAND REGIME CHANGE, get rid of the killers, it's the only way the slaughter will stop!!!
Any or all of these newly added dogs may be killed today, and they may also kill from the list of dogs that have been at the pound for a while. I don't have notes on these dogs, since I did not expect they would be suddenly on the kill list--I've met them though and I'm writing what I recall. If they are not killed today, then FOR SURE at least some, maybe all, of them will be killed tomorrow! Please save these angels!
A830638 "Stacy" HELP! This little baby Chocolate Lab is too cute for words, she's such a little beauty, and a total little doll. She's such a shiny little puppy, so healthy and full of life, though she may have a bit of kennel cough, no big deal. She's probably even younger than the 1 year listed, and she's TINY, weighing just 31 lbs. She's so sweet and friendly, though she's a sensitive little angel puppy, so gentle and submissive and docile, such a perfect pet, so adorable and totally adoptable. Please, please, please don't let this fabulous chocolate puppy be killed, put your name on her, go fall in love with her, and save her life!!! I am an unaltered female, chocolate Labrador Retriever. The shelter thinks I am about 1 year and 1 month old. I have been at the shelter since Sep 28, 2006.
A825223 "Buck" OMG, I can't believe they want to kill Buck now! He's the nicest, friendliest, sweetest dog in the place! He's a pure German Shepherd, and he's gorgeous, and so outgoing and loving, he comes to greet you with the most hopeful, loving eyes, begging you so sweetly to get him out of there. He's WAY younger than even half the age listed--he's NOT an old dog, this breed just gets grey in the muzzle at a young age. Buck is great with other dogs too, he's the most perfect pet you can imagine, you will fall totally in love with him, guaranteed. And he's SO adoptable. Please, please, please don't let this fabulous angel be killed, save him NOW!!! My name is Buck and I am a neutered male, brown German Shepherd. The shelter thinks I am about 8 years old. I have been at the shelter since Sep 08, 2006.
A709674 "Bosco" This is a stunning, total sweetheart pure Black Lab. He's a magnificent boy, super gorgeous and probably WAY younger than the age listed. I believe he had an owner so he was sitting on hold for a while. He's so adoptable, but they stuck him in the medical section for some reason, though he's so healthy and energetic. He's such a friendly, well behaved angel boy, great with other dogs, a typical wonderful good natured vital young Black Lab. He's a perfect pet, very adorable and adoptable, and he's already neutered and probably also microchipped. Please save him!!! My name is Bosco and I am a neutered male, black Labrador Retriever mix. The shelter thinks I am about 6 years old. I have been at the shelter since Jul 30, 2006.
