 Hi all!
 I have a situation near Lancaster TN, 1 hr east of Nashville. I need
 rescue contacts for that area. Please email me privately.

 This concerns a Mom Pyr with 4 pups dumped in the country. There are no
 animal control or Humane Societies in the area. I have called the
 Nashville Zoo, TN wildlife Resource Agency, and every trapper in the
 book. No help! Momma is not aggressive, only leary of people--can you
 blame her--and the friends I sent were able to feed her from their
 hands, but with pups not present were afraid to attempt capture. Reports
 are now there are only 2 pups, unknown as to reason. Farmers will grow
 tired of feeding, dogs will become nuisance and will be shot. This has
 gone on too long. Please respond! email to: Pyrangel@webtv.net

 Mom dog can be seen here:

 Please help me to restore the trust that was broken in this girl. Thank
 you,  Joan Fremo
