After three or four days of spring like temperatures early last week, we got a quick reminder of why this is called The North Country. From February 19th thru February 23rd we received 24 new inch’s of snow on top of the fourteen inches still on the ground, with current Spirit Animal Sanctuary thermometers reading -3 degrees.
Total Boonville, New York snowfall for the 2008-2009 winter season now stands at 207 inches. For those of you keeping track, that’s 17 feet of snow.

I have a small 501(c)3 rescue organization. Last year we pulled a 3 year old neutered maltipoo from a NYC kill shelter. He is unpredicatable, and is aggressive with SOME people. He was adopted 2x but returned due to this. He also is marker (pee), which doesn’t help matters. He is fine with other animals, dogs, cats, etc. He was on behavior meds for a while with no difference noted. I cannot continue to help other dogs if I can not place him. I am hoping to find out how to get Nico on a list for placement with Spirit..my cell number is 732-829-1426… Thank you
I am writing about a 1 year old shep mix, 45 pounds, who was kept with a foster in Tennessee and was not provided any human contact. She is a pack dog who loves other dogs but is very scared of people. She is not dog aggressive or human aggressive. The only incident of record is when someone leaned over her head and she scratched his nose when pulling away. With much patience and time she will allow people to gently pet her but she is timid the whole time. She is too young to give up on but she needs more attention than she can get from her current foster. Otherwise, she would do well in a situation where she can run with other dogs. Do you have any advice to offer? Thank you, Dorrie
My husband and I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback who has been diagnosed with fear aggression by a behaviorist at Cornell University.He has bitten me several times.We do not want to have him euthanized.Do you have any openings in your facility for such a dog?
Sorry I missed this Brett, still need any advice ?
Hi,
I hope this email finds you well.
I volunteer with an animal shelter and we have a dog that needs to find a new place to live; either a new shelter to live in or even better a sanctuary to live out her days.
How does one get a dog into a sanctuary?
She is a young mutt, mid size, she can get very excited, and is weary of strangers.
Any advice you have would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Brett
