Only nine dogs and puppies survived the Hammond shelter killings
Please say a prayer for the ones that didn’t make it out that animal shelter alive on August 4th.
Donations are needed for the rescued dogs and puppies
Friends of the Shelter has established a special fund for the eight dogs and puppies saved from the killing at the shelter on August 4, 2008. Tangi Adopt A Rescue (TAAR) a Tangipahoa Parish animal rescue groups has the animals in their care.
Money is needed to help pay for their care and vet costs. Also please consider helping by becoming a foster mom to one of our pets up for adoption.
Pet Adoption – Adopt one!
These dogs and puppies will be available for adoption after about a 2-3 week quarantine time and another veterinarian health check or two. All will be Spay and Neutered of course! If people spayed and neutered their pets then there would NOT have been 176 animals in the shelter to kill that day.

All of the rescued dogs/puppies were vet checked and so far they look pretty good – none are deadly sick with the mysterious killer shelter disease.
