I have an obsession with rescuing dogs and cats and doing all I can for them. I've fostered dogs, and it is one of the most rewarding things a true dog lover can do. Cats need foster homes as well. I wish more people would foster cats. You have a great blog as well, just checked it out. I have an obsession with rescuing dogs and cats and doing all I can for them.

I am an animal rescuer in Mississippi, and I fight every day to try to do just that for these rescue babies. Thank you for all that you do. If I can ever help you with anything, please let me know! Also, I just started my own rescue blog, and would love for you to check it out if you ever have time! I adore your blog & agree that every rescue dog should have a home.

She is doing well and has been there about a year now! Checked out your rescue site. I hope all those pups get into good homes. Georgia is a sweet girl, and I’m so happy she has her forever home.

Wed, 05 Jan 2011 02:24:14 +0000 http://www.thatmutt.com/?p=4936#comment-92377 This is truly a wonderful and informative article. Who is to say whether a dog should be put down or not? I would say that the dogs spirit and resilience even in tough times speaks for itself. The bottom line there is a home for the rescue dogs as you state. But, the way to achieve this is also spay/neuter and I believe licensing for pit breeding and limitations on that. The sad story is that there are sooo many beautiful, fun pits in the shelters that it is difficult to keep up with all of them. And, because there are many people out there breeding them for a buck, something must be done. Banning pits is like witch hunting. People need to be educated that they are- except for a very small percentage that HAVE been abused- great FAMILY PETS! Instead of governments instilling fear into people by banning the breed, outreaches and promotion of pits that service dogs etc. should be emphasized! Thank you loving people who adopted Georgia! You are beautiful. This is truly a wonderful and informative article. Who is to say whether a dog should be put down or not?

I volunteered with 4 Luv of Dog when Georgia and Matty were "newbies". I knew Georgia was adopted, but didn't know who her new family was. Now I know and I'm crying while I read it. Georgia, you found home at last. You big sweetie! Thanks a million to her new family and I mean that ;) Kiss to you Georgia, good girl. Now if I could just read a story about Matty and his new family..... I’m so glad I found this great article on Georgia and her new family.

It's an intense debate... euthanizing or not... I don't really have an opinion on it, I leave that to those more educated in shelters. Good for Georgia.
