September 7 transport

BLUE BOY'S BLUE EYESOn September 7, volunteers for Red Lake Rosie's Rescue met in Bemidji at Pete's Place South: Barbie, Kristin, Delores, Tom, Nancy, Carol, Arlie, and Karen.

NANCY & ORSONKAREN, KRISTEN, CAROLKristin and Barbie each had a van full of kibble for the shelter.

Eleven animals from RLRR and two animals from the Bemidji Pound were transported to the metro to various rescues including All Dog, AHS, Pet Haven, Animal Ark and MUSHR.

PATRICEPatrice went to All Dog.

BRANDI THENBrandi, a large malemute/husky mix was brought to the Ponemah Shuttle August 22nd. She was very starved and had been left at Battle River garbage dump a long time ago, as we had caught a glimpse of her there during several clinics and she somehow had managed to survive.

BRANDI NOWBrandi was illusive and we were never able to catch her- but a local resident of Ponemah caught her and brought her to us. She was spayed and vaccinated and thankfully was heartworm negative. After only 3 weeks she had gained lots of body weight and proved to be a great dog.

BLUE BOYMIAShe left for MUSHR along with Blue Boy and Mia on September 7.

FIVE PUPSAnimal Ark took in a litter of 5 pups which came from a large litter of 11. We made a home visit and the people wanted to surrender a large litter of very small pups. The mother dog was not producing enough milk and was moving the puppies and hiding them in the woods. We got these five before she took them into the woods. We are going to look for the remaining six and Ark has agreed to take them, too. Thankfully the owners have agreed to let us pick up the mama and have her spayed at the next clinic! Linda is the foster mom who has fostered so many Red Lake puppies and is expert at it. I expect we'll get some photos!!

HERSHEYHershey the little chihuahua went to Animal Ark, too.

KRISTEN & HER MOM DELORESThank you all for your great teamwork and commitment to the Red Lake animals!

Sincerely, Karen and RLRR
