Seven dogs and three cats were pulled from the Gaston County Animal Shelter on Friday morning, on the day they were scheduled to die.The mass adoption came courtesy of Help Save One, a Rhode Island animal rescue group that regularly pulls unwanted pets from Gaston and other shelters before routing them to new homes. But the supporters who attended Friday’s event did so to speak out against the use of carbon monoxide gas in animal euthanasia, as well as to raise awareness about irresponsible pet owners. Help Save One adopted 22 dogs and cats from the animal shelters in Gaston and Lincoln counties.
The mixed breeds that were pulled all bounded with energy as they were coaxed into crates for transportation elsewhere. Chuck Vachris, owner of Discount Pets in Mount Holly and Grateful Pets in Charlotte, has offered to groom and temporarily board each animal at discounted prices.

 Cowboy is a 10-12 week old puppy who was dumped at a high volume gassing shelter in NC Animal Control over the weekend. Someone must have cared at least a bit for him, because he was wearing a collar, and wiggles and wags with any attention. But he was not fed properly, and a nutritional deficiency caused his front legs to bow-in, so he now walks on his "knuckles" rather than on his feet. He will need a special diet and lots of vet care to have a chance of leading a normal life. |
