I would hate to live in Rainsville, Alabama. Most of you have heard this story before. This nice lady rescued dogs, then some mean person set her house on fire and then mean Rainsville told Carol to get rid of all the dogs. She can only have 3 dogs on her 4 1/2 acres of property while the breeders across the street have 17 and yet more breeders at the other end of the street have more! Apparently there is NO JUSTICE in Rainsville, and Judge Raines is heartless. We hope when he dies he comes back as a homeless dog. (Please note that we did not say we hoped he died, merely that when he does he learns what it is like to be a homeless dog, if he is lucky Dog Raines will meet nicer people then he is).
Because of all the publicity she has until FEBRUARY 9th, 2009 to rehome the dogs. There are 17 dogs left. Most of them are large and some of them are black. Apparently black dogs are harder to find homes for.
If you have looked at the dogs before, new information has been added. Many are housetrained, and several are now living indoors at Carol's garage apartment. She and other volunteers have been working with them to make them more adoptable.
We first heard about this from Jan's Funny Farm and we want to thank them for keeping us updated on the plight of these poor doggies.
JFF also has a heartwarming post about a dog named Murphy and the amazing man that rescued him.

We haven't meet Pacco yet. We shall have to go by her blog and introduce ourselves.
We don't understand black dog syndrome either. Mommy's doggie Sir Lass was a lovely black and white Border Collie.
We think you will do great at headbutties Asta. You are one of the sweetest doggies we know. Thanks for coming by to visit us. We gots to go to bed now the Mom is pooped. Purrs ~Socks, Scylla & Charybdis
What can you say.. even all the way over here in Australia all you can say... "It's Alabama"...
Ditto on the judge!! :(

This is such a ridiculous story. How can it be legal to treat people so differently? We are amazed. In a very bad way. All the dogs look so nice but we read that they are difficult to place. Most of them quite big. We have all paws crossed for these doggies and for Carol. It is horrible to think of a 65 year old lady living in her garage after a fire destroyed her home. Then add the enormous strain of the threat to her animals... It is so sad. We are wishing very bad stuff for this judge and all the people who turned their back on this lady!!!!
