From Columbia-Greene Humane Society:

We need your help.

Over the past week, nine dogs have arrived at the Columbia-Greene Humane Society/SPCA under difficult circumstances, creating a sudden and serious shortage of available kennel space. And while we will always find a way to care for an animal who needs us, right now we desperately need adopters to help us make room.

Bella (brindle) and Luna (white), two pit bull mixes, arrived painfully thin. With regular meals and care, they have already gained approximately ten pounds each, while their former owner now faces charges related to their condition. Diesel, a German Shepherd Dog, was allegedly abandoned by his family, with charges also pending. Six black Lab/Pit mixes were removed from another residence in a case that remains under investigation.

That’s nine dogs in one week, on top of those already in our care and the normal stream of animals coming through our doors.

If you've been thinking about adopting, this is the time we truly need you to come meet them. Bella, Luna, Diesel and the six Lab/Pittie mixes all have sponsored adoption fees, and there are many other wonderful dogs here waiting for someone to take them home.

Every dog adopted right now does two things. First, it changes the life of the dog who gets to leave with you, and second—but equally as important—it opens a kennel for another dog who may desperately need that space tomorrow. We don't know who that next dog will be. We just need to make sure there is room when they get here.

Please, come meet our dogs. Help us make that room.
