Two More Photo's



Many volunteers are working hard to help all the dogs on the property. Many different rescues have come together and are working hand in hand hoping to give all these dogs a second change.

More Photo's







More photo's from volunteers that have been on site. I have been told the horses were abandon too!

Another Update







Another volunteer went out and saw this:






I got there about 7 or so this evening (Sunday Night/Easter). No one had been there to feed them. In one of the pictures some of the dogs coming for food. Lo and behold a pregnant Brit showed up along with one who has had pups! WHERE have they been?? A pregnant Brit and she is ready to deliver. The one who is nursing gave me the slip and I never could find her. I went to the barn and out pops a pregnant pointer also ready to deliver. I was amazed. These dogs were not around yesterday evening. There are 3 horses they have also abandoned. Anyone know of a good horse rescue??
Another pic is just of some of the dogs laying across the road after they had eaten.
We are concerned because the dogs are getting aggressive with each other. Several of the Brits and Pointers jumped a small pointer, but I manged to break it up. Also 2 of the pointers that are kenneled together were squaring off when I was down at the kennels.

A wonderful volunteer



A wonderful volunteer was able to get on the property and sent the following information:


-It was pretty overwhelming! Some of the dogs in kennels had food, others did not.

-Countless dirty buckets were strewn about for the dogs, they looked as if they had never been washed.

-Most buckets just had dirty frozen water.

-We had to bring our own water, the water hose outside had been turned off.

-3 puppies were in a barrel along with the remains of an older dog.

-I had to get out of there quick, I did count 9-10 Brittney's.

-Most dogs were Pointers approx. 25-30.

-These dogs are beautiful!

More info to follow as it becomes available.

Rescues are 501c3 and get most of there funding through private donations. Emergency funds are needed! A list of all rescues involved will be added to this blog, all are accepting emergency donations. IL Bird Dog Rescue went through most of its ER funds at this time last year when we heard about a similar situation and brought up over 40 dogs from the side of a mountain. With love and care dogs that lived in the worst conditions can thrive and become great family pets.

Help Us!!



It's a breeding and training operation that has been spotted! This has been spotted in Southern Indiana. The rescue message boards have been burning up! Rescues from IL, IN, KY, OH, AND TN have all been notified and are working together to help rescues these poor dogs.
