ha! i just figured out why rescuers should keep blogging!
Carol · Dec 17, 2007
blogging is the direct and accurate time line on what we do, when we do it and how we managed to get it all done. right there in black and white and all in logical, reasonable and sequentional order. i do believe in trying to keep things straight or else it gets pretty muddled up and inaccurate and then you have got a real problem with credibility.
i was cherry picking thru the TG blog trying to get some sense from all of the conflicting and ever changing accusations posted on BW. i noticed something and started to look closer at dates and posts...here is what i found documented on the TG blog
October 7.....45 sherriffs dogs arrive at TG.... all emaciated.
Oct 12...on site vet visit to assess health of sherriffs dogs.
October 13...kelly and bev arrive and leave with 2 sheriffs dogs.
Oct 22.... a truck load of shavings arrive for kennels and dog houses. (hey...i am on a 6 week waiting list for shavings down here how did they get them delivered in only in 2 weeks!)
Oct 24th.. SPCA inspectors visit and bring food for the sherriffs dogs
oct 24 cont... TG is down to 30 sherriffs dogs...15 sherriffs dogs have gone out to other rescues.
Oct 24th cont.... only 2 of the remaining dogs are still out on tie downs
October 31 All of the spueters completed on the sherriffs dogs.
so what did i pull out of this.....1....in 3 weeks sheriffs dogs speutered....2....15 sherriffs dogs were in fact moved out to other rescues.... and 3....43 of the 45 are off of chains by Oct 24...two short weeks after arrival (the other 2 might have been by the 31st but yvette doesn't say)
i am impressed...that is alot accomplished in 3 short weeks...the gospel of rescue is right...TG will not be what it was 7 days after the influx of 50 starving sled dogs when those pictures were originally taken.... when i go to visit on thursday, it will be different.... way to go TG, good job!
i just thought this was kind of interesting... i went back thru brindle too and took some notes... that was interesting too but i won't talk about that...i don't have too, it is all there in black and white.
i am going to blog EVERYTHING, it appears to be quite a useful endeavor.
I am going out of town on Thursday for 2 weeks.. I am hoping I shall be able to pop into a site somewhere to see how your trip up north goes Carol. Thank you so much for cherry picking through everything Carol. I had thought of doing the same thing but you did it so much better. The chain of events just didn't add up to me. I feel so good having read your information..that of JD Cave and now Lindsay's posts on Brindle just reminding folks of what they should and shouldn't say. Again I hope the animals do not suffer through this. My post about the Urgent Dog at CAC brought immedate reaction and that is encouraging...at least we can still work through all this ugliness to do what rescue is all about. "SAINTS" be praised...
