Do you want to know what you get the guy who has everything for Christmas?
"Hey Joe,
Wanted to let you know that our adoptions are going through the roof! We have 21 empty kennels (as of right this minute) and we have 10 dogs who are adopted and will be going home in the coming week. Plus, we have 10 cats going home too! All of the dogs you have posted are adopted. We took photos to send you today but all of them got adopted before we could send them! So could you post that right now, we don't have dogs to post but we do have some that will come available this week and we will send photos then. In the meantime, isn't it GREAT!?!
Linda"
THANK YOU!
Everyone knows the kind of animal lovers Jennifer and I are and to think they could put down wonderful pets simply because families are going broke, they're losing their homes and relocating to rental properties where they can't take their dog or cat with them.
A very close friend called me just before I got this message telling me they planned on heading out to the Humane Society to look at their inventory and they wanted to know if I could give them the heads up on any new pictures. I told them that I hadn't seen any recently but I'd keep them posted. The next thing you know, this message came in.
Linda, I'm so pleased for ALL of you as well. Our goal is to create a No Kill Shelter there and that's exactly where we're headed if this keeps up. If people continue to adopt animals there the Humane Society won't need to put animals down. This is great news and I'm glad your troubles there are the best kind of troubles a facility like yours could have.
Remember Folks, they get in new animals every day and many of them come from a distressed situation mainly, (recently) based around people losing their homes. I would think many of these animals are pure bred and they're getting dropped off at the Humane Society as much as the mixed breed, (designer dogs).
As always, we will provide updated photos as they come in. What a great Christmas this has become and it's all because of YOU. Oh, I should end with this. I was at Sam's the other day ringing the bell when all of a sudden this wonderful young lady came up to me with this look in her eye. You know, that look of joy, pride and happiness. She was one of the new owners of one of the puppies recently Posted, proudly sporting pictures and all! Talk about rewarding! ;-)

Joe thank you for all you do. This made my heart really smile this morning. I am a pet lover. I actually have two children from the shelter. One is the most loving cat you will ever meet in your life. The other was a puppy when I adopted her. I have had many animals over the years, but I have to tell you adopting these two there was a real blessing. They are both so loving and spoiled. I don't know what I'd do without them. Keep up the good work Joe. Thanks for all that you do. Sincerely, Beth A.
Joe, this is great news! What a wonderful gift to all those innocent animals. I hope each and every family who has a new member of the family this year loves them as much as I love the one I got from there. She brings so much joy into my life.
One Word...AWESOME!
This is great. I'm glad something so positive can be done with the site. I do wish they would change the "policy" on pit bulls but they still are a great shelter.
If anyone ever has a need to for a shelter for a NON AGRESSIVE Pit bull please contact me as my wife and I as well as some friends run a pit bull rescue from our homes.

I am a proud owner of a cute puppy we just got from the humane society on wednesday :) she has been a wonderful addition to our family. Funny thing is we went there to look at Donner and my husband wanted to see the other puppies out of curiousity...well none of the puppies came up to the door. Then we get to Dasher's door and she was far back in her cage scared and lonely because her brother just left her...so all the people before us tried to get her to come to them and she wouldn't budge...my family came to her cage and she waddled right up to us and started licking our hands...Looks like Dasher(we renamed her Morgan) picked us instead of us picking her :) She has been one spoiled and loved puppy since she came home with us. My other dog has been mother hen to her as well :) Thank you for showing those cute pictures I have to say this has been a great way to get all those animals adopted :) Good job Linda and Joe :)
The Georggetown SPCA has lots & lots of animals. If the Salisbury shelter runs out, please go to Georgetown.
It's a TwoFer!!!!!
You and your (previously!) controversial blog have, single-handedly, saved the city of sby from an inept ruler, then you saved the lives of sooooo many defenseless pets by revitalizing the wchs.
The tide has turned.
(Now that you've accomplished these things, can you spend some time on the unfair double tax structure of city/county for city residents....???).
