Unfortunately, the message is slow getting out about TAS adoptions. Most people still think Humane Society whenever they think about dog adoptions and don't realize there are other places they could look as well.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243247582677457166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492255858171331632.post-68164594984669354292008-10-19T10:40:00.000-04:002008-10-19T10:40:00.000-04:00TAS South is doing a great job.

Have they ever been on Animal Housecalls on City TV or tried for some media coverage to advertise that they do adopt out dogs, cats, rabbits and such? A lot of people don't know that the shelter adopts out.Social Mangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14135369986061367480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492255858171331632.post-42008561742659418832008-10-15T14:16:00.000-04:002008-10-15T14:16:00.000-04:00That's totally the idea, and I'd certainly be up f...That's totally the idea, and I'd certainly be up for it but we are still talking about a municipal bureaucracy and I imagine there'll be a few rules and regulations and liability issues that will have to be dealt with first.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243247582677457166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492255858171331632.post-82756432533562027782008-10-15T13:31:00.000-04:002008-10-15T13:31:00.000-04:00Wouldn't the volunteers who walk dogs be able to s...Wouldn't the volunteers who walk dogs be able to supervise? It would actually be a more efficient use of valuable volunteer time because more dogs could get attention from fewer people.<BR/><BR/>I'm sure you have already thought of that, though.Caveathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10712858257904194590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492255858171331632.post-63803593024136279932008-10-15T10:04:00.000-04:002008-10-15T10:04:00.000-04:00I believe that all dogs coming in get their full s...I believe that all dogs coming in get their full set of shots unless it's an owner surrender with papers. I don't think the increased risk of infection or fights is a big deal with proper screening and supervision - after all, it works in doggie day cares across the nation, but supervision means additional employees and I suspect that might be the deal breaker.<BR/><BR/>But, who knows, the day might come ...Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243247582677457166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492255858171331632.post-51190043870818657872008-10-14T23:37:00.000-04:002008-10-14T23:37:00.000-04:00You might try setting up some of that temp steel f...You might try setting up some of that temp steel fencing they use around construction sites to see how it goes. I think you can even rent it, not sure. It's sturdy and they aren't going to knock it over.<BR/><BR/>Fights are rare between dogs, especially when they're not on leashes and any communicable diseases will spread in the kennel anyway.<BR/><BR/>Do you guys vaccinate for bordatella and parvo?Caveathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10712858257904194590noreply@blogger.com
