Please think long and hard
before you take your companion to the shelter.  If your dog is turned over,
the chances they will be placed in a new home are very slim to nothing.  It's
almost an instant death sentence & many shelters in NC
still use the gas
chamber!
 This is a horrid, evil way for their life to end.
Some of the problems you might be experiencing may be very easily fixed if
you just know where to go for support!!

There are other options.  
Contact us... we'll be happy to talk over the situation and see if we can guide
you to some of these resources, so you and your companion can continue
with a happy, healthy life together.
If all else fails, or if your mind is set that you no longer want to keep your
pet, we'd like to help you safely rehome your dog so they have a chance at
the life they deserve.

You made the choice to bring your dog into your home and family.  They ask
nothing of you but love and safety.  
They do NOT deserve to die because they
are no longer convenient or you have come upon some hurdles that are
difficult to surmount because you have a pet.  
Please seek assistance before sending your dog off to be killed.  
A dog dumped at your local shelter may be an instant
death sentence!  Become informed before you make
that drastic decision!

Too many dog owners are very cavalier about how
they view their responsibilities when it comes to
protecting their pets.
You MUST be proactive when it comes to this choice.
How unfair is it to bring so many puppies into our
community, when they aren't offered the love and
care they need and deserve?
You can prevent this by spay/neuter for your dog.
A little money spent now will save a lot of headache
and heartache in your futures.
What We Do:

Reunite lost dogs with their families
Increase public awareness about the need for
basic obedience training
Referrals to competent, experienced trainers
Community teaching about the dire need for
owners to sterilize their pets: We offer services
to willing families to assist them in obtaining
S/N for their dogs.
Adopting dogs to worthy families looking to
spread love to our canine companions
Is your dog tagged with contact information so
you can be found if he/she misplaces you?
Every dog is vet-checked, up-to-date with
all vaccs, STERILIZED, & temperament-
assessed prior to adoption!

  Please Spay/Neuter your pets!!

Please sign this petition and send to your friends, family, and
contacts in NC... trying to raise 7500 signatures to ensure this
cruel act is punished to the fullest extent!! They've almost

let out into his OWN fenced-in back yard.
Fight for our pets' safety and help protect them from sick, selfish
monsters like this Mr. Stanfill
