Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Big contest! Please help my shelter win! Voting April 5-16 543711_352429434800751_351324724911222_962145_97541832_n

My local animal shelter, Seminole County Animal Services, is entered into a really big contest! They are hoping to win the grand prize of $100K and open their own spay/neuter clinic!

Big contest! Please help my shelter win! Voting April 5-16 552109_355985214445173_351324724911222_971978_726970007_n

They are asking everyone to "Paws" to vote for Seminole! Voting is between April 5th thru April 16th and you can vote once a day. Winners of the voting round go on to try and raise their adoption numbers from last Sept., Oct., and Nov. to this year's Sept., Oct., and Nov. Seminole must raise their numbers by 300 more animals! Which hopefully won't be too hard since they get so many animals in and do great adoption events!

Here's a short video explaining how to vote:
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=356445504399144

I'm really rooting for Seminole! They have a wonderful staff and amazing foster/volunteer coordinator. They foster out kittens and puppies who are too small to be spayed/neutered and put them up for adoption once they are the right weight. They foster out sick or injured cats and dogs. They have a wonderful group called T.E.A.R.S. who does fund raisers for them to help pay for medical treatments for sick and injured animals. They do wonderful adoption events and one is totally aimed at rescues and not the shelter itself! It's a great opportunity for rescues to get one on one time with the public looking for animals to adopt. I really can't say enough about this shelter. They are county run and so are a "kill" shelter, but they truely try to save as many animals as possible. They extend the time they keep adoptable pets for as long as possible. Last time I was in there they were taking new pictures of one poor pit mix who has been sitting at the shelter for over 6 months. I don't think there are a ton of kill shelters who would hold a nice dog for that long. Hopefully her new pictures will capture some interest on petfinder and she'll get adopted soon! The staff really like her and decorate her kennel with signs saying how much of a great dog she is and how badly she needs a forever home.

So please vote April 5th to 16th at www.votetosavelives.org ! Thanks!!!

Some cool stuff about the shelter! I didn't know about the Taco Bell stand in! http://cassidyapril.com/2012/04/05/100k-aspca-rachael-ray-challenge/

Three of my mom's dogs are from Seminole.
From left to right the 2nd, 5th, and 8th dogs are from Seminole. The first is her friend's dog and 4th was a rescue who's found a home. The rest are my moms! All rescues!

lol. Fingers crossed! I know they would do a lot of good with the money if they did win. They won some of those shelter challenges on theanimalrescuesite.com and won about $1,000 each time. They put in a really nice indoor/outdoor cat room, so all the kitties didn't have to be in small cages and re-did their bigger dog runs where people can meet the dogs.
