Looking For The Owner Of This Lost Doggie

This lost dog was found earlier today. She was wandering around a neighborhood very close to Franklins (Farragut and 43rd Ave). She's wearing a collar, but there are no tags and she's not microchipped. This is a very sweet, affectionate dog that I'm sure misses her family and home.

If you know her owners or where she may live, please contact Meg.

Welfare advocates still wary of new oversight at Prince Georges County Animal Shelter

This week, The Gazette has an enlightening article regarding current management and their euthanasia rate.

Do you know where your cats are?

Somebody has been trapping feral cats in the area around Belleview Avenue and Kilmer Street. Apparently, this started a few weeks back and is still going on. If you care for ferals or even let your indoor cat outside, please keep a close eye on them. When these cats are trapped, they go straight to the PG Shelter and are put down. They get no second chances!

There is a more humane and effective way to deal with feral cats. If you or a neighbor cares for ferals, but need help stabilizing their population, please contact me thru cheverlycarneys@gmail.com. Feel free to contact me if you are also just interested in additional information and resources that pertain to feral cats.
