Welcome to
Stop Killing Dogs Rescue!
We are a rescue,
as the name implies, whose singular goal is to eliminate government
sponsored killing of dogs - simply for convenience. We believe that
dogs are the equivalent of children that never grow up. We created
them; they are our responsibility, and it is a disgrace for our
society to kill them simply because they have become impractical to
keep.
Stop Killing
Dogs Rescue is a non profit organization that is housed in the
Downtown Dog Resort and Spa. We have the capability of housing
up to ten dogs for adoption at a time from shelters that would
have otherwise put the dogs down, but we need
volunteers to take
care of the dogs until they are either fostered or adopted.
Stop killing dogs rescue was originally formed about five years
ago by Barry Glazer, an attorney, (barryglazer.com), who has a
deep love and respect for dogs. Barry and his partner Gina
Gargeu opened the Downtown Dog Resort and Spa in the beginning
of 2009.
In March, Dr. Marcella Bonner joined the project and opened the
Swan Harbor Animal Hospital, which is a full service - state of
the art - pet hospital, located and connected to the Downtown
Dog Resort and Spa, offering medical services to a variety of
animals. Dr Bonner has a long history of pet rescue and owns a
farm with many rescue animals. Dr Bonner is a strong supporter
of spay and neuter programs and works with Barcs and other
shelters providing low cost spade and neuter services to rescue
dogs. Dr Bonner was recently shown on television and the news as
a result of her rescue efforts in attempting to save the pit
bull that was so brutally burned recently in Baltimore. She has
been called on several times to assist in saving brutalized
dogs, some who have been shot by police, and others that have
been horribly victimized.
These efforts require substantial cost and we need people to
work towards obtaining funds to continue these efforts.
We have worked on and built the necessary infrastructure
necessary to pursue our goal of eliminating government sponsored
unnecessary euthanasia. We now have everything necessary to
pursue our goal, but we need a substantial amount of
volunteers
to not only influence the politicians so as to force them to
legislate euthanasia out of existence but to also help us with
the daily needs of the dogs we are rescuing, located at the
Downtown Dog Resort and Spa 200 W. McComas St.
It is our hope
that this project is just the beginning of our goal. We hope to
organize as a power that politicians will have to think about when
they budget for their dog programs. I can assure you that the
political powers would want nothing less than a group of us
campaigning for an opponent who supports saving dogs and against
them because they wouldn't.
We need
volunteers!
