Wings of Rescue saves 450 pets

[Catherine]

This is becoming a real working solution for over crowded shelters. There are a number of groups that will transport animals.

There are truckers who take dogs with them and pass them on to other truckers to get animals across the country.
There are groups of volunteers who drive vans full of dogs from one city to another so they have a better chance of adoption.
They even transfer large dogs from the city to country shelters where they can be adopted by someone who has room for them.

We have become uncomfortable with mass euthanizations of healthy animals. Shelters are looking for solutions when they are overwhelmed by animals. If they can become a little more organized, euthanasia of healthy animals will be a thing of the past.
It will be an act of mercy to an injured, dying animal and not a way of getting rid of animals.

Every time I hear about a rescue like this I know we are on the right track.
