Robeson County, North Carolina Animal Shelter – Our Stance
I feel that it is important at this time that I type up an article about Robeson County, NC animal shelter. At the current time Painfultruth.org has two dogs in custody from this shelter and soon we may have three in total. I want to make it clear that we are not just speaking out how we feel with out doing anything. We did something and took in a few dogs and we are half way across the country from there.
It is hard to fully grasp everything going on amongst this shelter and get your head around it. There is a lot of good happening there in that county, it has been a long time coming for the changes. There is lawsuit action, animal activists rallying around the shelter for change, more rescue involvement and push for changes from many fronts. This is good. Also, there is a lot of scams going around, a lot of bickering, arguments and back stabbing.
Painfultruth.org has also even been attacked a few times when trying to help. We have not and will not ever bow to the people out there spending so much time on drama. We continue to do our work as we support many areas of the country. We will continue to help where we can regardless of the immature behavior from some there.
We do not agree with everything going on there. We are publicly speaking our stance so that is it clear where we stand on this issue. We understand that there will be even more backlash and bad mouthing of our organization. We stay true to our views and will take on this bad mouthing head on. We will not bow down to it.
Links to as much information as we can find will be posted for you to make your own opinions. At the end of the day, the point is this area is one of many in the country that need attention. Learn from it, join in and fight.
In this post we will first touch base on our stance as a whole and post links to information on Robeson so that later on posts from us are grounded with information.
Holidays….
It is hard for me to not think about all the homeless animals out there in shelters that are waiting for homes this time of year. Many just have a concrete slab to sleep on, no blanket, no stuffed animal to cuddle with. They are not in a comfortable place. Shelter life is so hard on animals and many sit and just die waiting. You can see the heartache in their eyes. We sit around with family in comfort, many of us have companion animals of our own that we snuggle and talk to. We enjoy them. I am asking you to think about the homeless animals and do one of the following at least... the more the better.
- Take at least one bag of dog food or cat food to your local shelter.
- Take in old towels and blankets to your local shelter.
- Take old stuffed animals in to your local shelter for some comfort.
- Sign up to be a volunteer at your local shelter.
- Sign up to be a foster home for your local shelter.
- Offer to take a dog or cat home for Christmas Vacation to get a break from the shelter.
- Grab a death row dog or cat and just give them that extra time they need by opening up your home.
- Donate money to your local shelter.
These are just some simple things that have such a large impact and yet none of them cost that much. There is a lot of help out there but not enough. There are so many animal lovers that can make such a huge difference if you just try. Just one thing is all I ask, Just one.
