| Hello Indiana-PAW Friends,
Animal shelters and rescue groups in Rushville, Cedar Grove,
Jeffersonville, Anderson and Indianapolis, Indiana have all reached
out to Indiana-PAW in the past two weeks to ask for help from YOU -
our constituents. Here is what is needed:
Rushville Puppies Need Your Help
Rushville Animal Shelter Puppy.
| Jaime Glandon, the Rescue
Coordinator for the Rushville
Animal Shelter, tells Indiana-PAW her shelter has an emergency
need for foster homes for a litter of puppies and their mom. Jaime
says the shelter has received a call from a citizen with a litter of
9 puppies who are five weeks old. The citizen wishes to bring the
puppies to the shelter, and is incapable of caring for them (3 have
already died in his care, and the surviving puppies are living
outside with their mom). Jaime tells Indiana-PAW, "Our shelter is at
capacity and if this litter gets brought in, [a different litter of
puppies already at the shelter] will be put down to make room."
Jaime's shelter is in need of foster homes for the 6 surviving
puppies (who are already weaned, and who are Bull Mastiff/German
Shepherd mixes, and who will be spayed/neutered), and their mom. If
you can help, e-mail Jaime.
Indiana-PAW will provide transportation of the puppies from the
Rushville shelter to any location in the State of Indiana, if
someone will agree to foster the puppies.
3 Remaining Trailer Park Dogs Running Out Of
Time
Trailer park dogs running
out of time. | Paula Brock,
the founder of Volunteers
For Animal Welfare (a Cedar Grove, Indiana organization) has
notified Indiana-PAW that the dogs we've told you about previously -
who were left in an Indiana trailer park to die - are running out of
time, and are in desperate need of foster homes. As we've previously
reported, Paula's organization has been taking the 9 dogs food, has
had many of them neutered and vaccinated, and has even found homes
for 6 of them. However, there are still 3 dogs abandoned in the
trailer park for whom Paula is desperately trying to secure foster
homes, and time is running out. If you can foster any of these 3
poor dogs, please contact Paula
Brock directly. Indiana-PAW will provide transportation of
the dogs from the trailer park to any location in the State of
Indiana, if someone will agree to foster the puppies.
Shelter In Jeffersonville Needs Your Support  The Animal
Protection Association (APA), a non-profit animal shelter in
Jeffersonville, Indiana, has notified Indiana-PAW that the APA is
losing its facility in Jeffersonville, where they've been for 7
years. They are looking for folks to help them by adopting animals,
and/or assisting with donations for their relcation. If you want to
learn how you can help this agency, please e-mail Jeni
Church directly.

Indiana-PAW Foster Parents Find Joy In Saving
Lives
Kittens fostered by Indiana-PAW foster parents.
| Indiana-PAW receives a steady
stream of positive feedback from our foster parents, who find great
joy in helping shelters and rescue agencies save the lives of
animals who would otherwise have to be euthanized due to
overcrowding, or minor health or behavioral problems. For example,
just this week, foster parent Sabrina Lanie wrote: "I would
certianly do it all [serve as an Indiana-PAW foster parent] over
again! In fact, when I move to Florida, I'm going to look around and
see if I can find something similar [to Indiana-PAW]! It was a very
positive experience. I felt very proud to be a part of
Indiana-PAW. I think that you have a wonderful helpful, caring
staff and volunteers." To join Indiana- PAW's foster parent
team like Sabrina did, and help animals like those featured in this

Thanks to all of YOU for all you do for Indiana animals!
