40+ cairns coming into Col. Potter (udate)
From CRM list. Col. Potter rescue is in middle of receiving 40+ cairns. This is latest group to come in:
This is the group that was the impetus for the 40 PM KID CHALLENGE!!! We've worked for two weeks through negotiations, release snags, transport BUT THEY HAVE FINALLY ARRIVED!!! Today TWENTY TWO, yes I said 22, furkids made their way into the loving arms of Col. Potter and this does not include Gretchen and Barb would gained their freedom in OH today!!! While we don't have names, pictures or alot of other information yet, here is what I can tell you: 1 Male 6 months old 6 Males 15 weeks old 1 Male born 2002 1 Male born 2003 1 Female born 12/05 2 Females born 2001 2 Females born 2002 3 Females born 2003 1 Female has 2 puppies on the ground 2-3 weeks old 1 Female has 3 puppies on the ground 2-3 weeks old 1 Female is ready whelp within the next week (so our 22 will continue to grow) 1 Female is supposedly pregnant and will be checked by the vet (so could grow again) I will be announcing names tomorrow, many based on your donations and hopefully will have pictures soon. This has been an incredible two days with three PM kids yesterday, the two girls today and now these twenty two. This brings our 40 PM Kids Challenge currently to 31. If everyone that is planned to come in next weekend from PMs does, we will EXCEED 40!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE - if you can foster and have not already signed up for one of these kids, please, please, please consider fostering one of these kids. We don't have enough foster homes for everyone that coming, not to mention owner surrenders and shelter surrenders. These kids are going to run up some pretty high vet bills and that doesn't even contemplate our little boy Celebrate in FL who is awaiting surgery and heartworm treatment. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS MADE A DONATION TO THE 40 PM KID CHALLENGE!!! Every dollar is crucial now and is most certainly appreciated and will be put towards these kids. If you haven't made a donation yet, waiting to see if there really were going to be 40 PM Kids, I can tell you they are here and they need your help! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT!

And there's more at the door, more at the door!

I have submitted an application to foster so maybe I can help out. That sure is a lot of dogs that need homes.

Re: 40+ cairns coming into Col. Potter (udate)
Since Col Potter is financial stressed and behind in taxes why not let some of the other rescue groups help out and take some of the pups? I know several that would be glad to help, working together is so much more productive! Good job all!

Re: 40+ cairns coming into Col. Potter (udate)
Vickie,
It would be nice if before you post information you would at least check your facts.
From everything I can see on the attorney general's site ... Col. Potter is NOT behind in their taxes at all.
As far as working together, I agree ... working together is much more productive than than spreading rumors designed to hurt the rescue of the dogs we all care about so much.

I think this is no place to debate this. Shame on you.
Contact them with any ideas, I am only conveying information.

Contact Col Potter privately with your offers of help. Decorum instead of public mosh pit. Thanks! Darlene and Jolly, FL
