Got this email from a coworker this morning and I am always trying to help, so I am spreading the word. If anyone is interested, contact me and I will give you the contact information for the rescue group:

We are hoping to find 4 very loving foster homes for the following young dogs. If you, or anyone you know, can offer a place in your home, please let me know. The first two listed, Isaac and Suzy - have been waiting to find foster homes for some months now, both would benefit from homes with other dog(s) they would love to go on walks and the occasional trip to the dog park! Although they are siblings, they do not need to be homed together.

Isaac - 8 months old black lab/mix He was abandoned on a deserted dirt road, with two of his siblings. They were rescued by extremely kind people who took them into their home. Isaac needs to go to a foster home where he will be exercised, be socialised with other dogs and get the love and attention he deserves. A fenced yard would be fun for Isaac, he needs a foster who will walk him and give him attention and training. Not yet crate trained but working on that. He is handsome, lovable and loyal.

Suzy is Isaac's sister - also approx 8 months old black lab mix. We need to find a loving foster home for her. Suzy would also benefit from a fenced yard, she does need a foster who will walk with her, and help her to learn She is a cute, lovable dog. Not yet crate trained but working on that.

Coco - 2 year old hound mix - Coco has a lot of youthful energy and would love to go on walks and to dog parks. She is sweet and sociable. She was left behind by some renters and was found in a pitiful thin condition. She was nursed back to health by her rescuer and is now lively and healthy. Coco is looking for a longer term foster home with other dogs to play with (she is also good with kids and cats) She would benefit from walks and trips to the dog park. Coco is submissive to other dogs.

We also have a 6 month old GSD/Husky mix pup rescued from a high kill shelter over this weekend. He is described as friendly with other dogs,cats and kids. Very people friendly. He is still a puppy and so needs someone who can help with training. He just wants to be loved and shown attention.

All of these dogs need kind and loving homes in which to develop and thrive.

BFPA will provide all medications, Flea Tick and HW prevention meds. and will schedule and pay for all vet visits. We are looking for people who will open their hearts and homes to one of these loveable mutts and give them a safe and secure place to live as they wait for their forever homes.

If you can help with one of these adorable dogs, or if you know someone who may be able to help, please let me know.

WHO FUCKING LEAVES A DOG IN A HOUSE WHEN YOU MOVE OUT?

christ almighty people are horrible
 
Man, Shun Lee was good back in the late 80s, early 90s under the original owners. They were awesome. Not sure when they sold it, but I understand that it sucks now.

No clue. Happened in my neighborhood here though. Family left in the dead of night. No one knew. Then they found three dogs left in the house and they all had to be put down because they were already nearly dead.

You understand wrong. Shun Lee always have influence over real estate. You pasty face American can go eat at Mama Fu's or Pizza Peel.

i actually hear about this happening fairly frequently and it blows me away. I know how sad my dog is when I leave for work in the morning, I can't imagine knowing i'm shutting him up with no hope of being found for some time. Once it was a house that was foreclosed on and the dog was like 5 mo old and left for 3 weeks.

holy crap. this is such bizarre timing. our office just moved in right next to shun lee. ate there for the very first time ever for lunch today. weird.
 
all the crap on this thread has got me wondering if there were news stories i missed...

but the consensus from our group was that it was pretty good. thumbs up to the chicken and broccoli.

I have nightmares about something happening to me while I am out and no one getting to my dogs. Would be almost impossible with all my friends and family who would immediately go get the dogs, but still.

I also have nightmares about a fire in the house while I am gone, but that's another fear...
 
so HP deleted his comment (which i'm assuming was meant to be from shun lee). but HP, were you trying to make sure you knew which company i worked for? are you stalking me?

This. I get text pages for all our fire calls on my phone, and I've always said if I get a text for a structure fire at my house, I'm calling dispatch and telling them to give specific instructions on how to get the dog out. Forget the house, but guys, you better save my dog.
