Now more than ever, you are needed to donate your old blankets, towels, and sheets to your local animal shelter. With financial cut-backs, repairs on shelters are often put off, so if it's drafty, the animals suffer. I know my shelter uses rags to stuff under doors. No kidding! Empty out those closets... this is your chance to get rid of stuff and do something useful!

Dog Stolen From Irving Texas Shelter - REWARD OFFERED

(Anyone with ANY information PLEASE call Irving Police at 972-273-1010 or the shelter at 972-721-2258 or 972-721-2259 or 972-721-2256 AND email laura at lforsythe@cityofirving.org ASAP)



I know this shelter. It's high kill but that's because of the volume of dogs due to there being fewer spay/neuter programs and because of the abundance of puppy milling in Texas. However, the supervisor there is very consciencious and they are careful about adopting out their dogs. About a month ago, I helped a family in Texas that was looking for a lab adopt Campbell, who now lives a good life. They got him from Irving.

Recently, a dog was stolen from that same shelter, and police are asking for the public's help.

Here are the two people seen in videotape jumping the fence with Wylie, the white dog pictured below.
