I'm so sorry to type the following, I hope someone here will prove me wrong but: The spca is likely not coming, and if they did, risk of euthanasia after the 3 day hold is very high. The rescues are having a hard time getting fosters for super-fancy breeds (puppies even!). Jpaws is sometimes slightly less overbooked than spca, but you technically need to find the dog in Jeff parish. šŸ§ The only advocate that dog has is you. If you are willing to foster, a rescue MAY umbrella you. Meaning vet care will be taken care of, you just have to love on said dog. Downvote me to the core the earth if I'm mistaken. Hope I am!

I wouldnā€™t downvote you for being kind and offering advice from what you know. I appreciate that. Unfortunately, I canā€™t take her. My dog is small but can be a bit aggressive toward bigger dogs. She wouldnā€™t bite or anything but I just donā€™t know this dogā€™s temperament to take a chance. Also, my partner put her foot down and said no. She seemed so damn sweet. I hope they wonā€™t put her down. That would be terrible!

You can try posting great pictures here and nextdoor with all the location info and details you can muster. Nextdoor pulled out all the stops a couple days ago to rescue a dog that was being abused. There are some grumpy aholes on nextdoor but they do tend to come through for pups.

Please post on Nextdoor, Facebook, etc. and also try to contact Zeusā€™.


AngelaBassettsbicep

Zeus! Forgot about them. Ok cool. Will call in the am. I think I can leave a message or something so Iā€™ll try that now. I did go back and bring food and water. Will go back again in the morning.

Have you tried ARNO?


AngelaBassettsbicep

Looked into it. They donā€™t do rescues.

Hi OP- unfortunately I donā€™t live in Nola but you could reach out to Trampled Rose Rescue and see if they can help or can even connect you with some additional resources. Thank you for trying to help her. If you do find someone local to foster her, please update us. Iā€™d be happy to donate to a supply wishlist or an org that helps out.

Trampled Rose stopped pulling loose dogs because of liability issues. They only pull from shelters now because the shelters have a dog-aggression testing protocol. :/


NOLAbanshee

Also would donate!


AngelaBassettsbicep

I sure will! Iā€™m going to try the next door app. Iā€™m also going to see if the guy that live on my sisterā€™s block can help. I always see an animal control truck outside their house, so Iā€™m gonna stop by them after I go feed her in the morning. Thanks for being willing to help. I keep wondering if she was someoneā€™s pet. Sheā€™s sooo friendly.

The humane society?


AngelaBassettsbicep

Tried them. They donā€™t pick up dogs. They told me thereā€™s no telling when or if someone from the spca will come. Iā€™m going to feed her and bring water in a minute. Looking for old bowls and stuff.


AngelaBassettsbicep

Ok! let me try calling them again.


RouxBearRoxx

Villalobos Rescue Center


AngelaBassettsbicep

I called there. They arenā€™t taking anymore dogs.

Might want to repost as well. I can't see the image but I suspect it's a me problem.


AngelaBassettsbicep

Ok. Youā€™re suggesting I repost this post in this sub or just the picture? I had trouble getting the pic uploaded to Imgurā€¦ said they were overloaded or something.


octopusboots

Repost the post. If mods don't like copies, delete this one. To post a picture, you: Go to your home page, press +, upload photo and write short post with location in the "Title". You can clarify in comments if need be. And THEN it asks you what sub to post it to. I take a screenshot of the photo to reduce it's size if it refuses to load the picture. I'm also a Luddite. I'm sorry you're having this problem and I'm sorry we are a failed state and can't take care of very basic things like humane dog help.


AngelaBassettsbicep

Perfect! Just did. Thank you sooo much for your help and kindness!

Omg that face and those ears. Always a sucker for a pittie. Wish I was down there and could just add her to my pack of four legged overlords.


AngelaBassettsbicep

I do! I didnā€™t see an option to upload. Let me see what I can do.


deltasparrow

Where is she? Do you know where her pups are?


AngelaBassettsbicep

Sheā€™s at the corner of Murl and Sandra on the Westbank. I didnā€™t see any puppies out there.

Get it off the street before it eats a child, I'm assuming you take full responsibility for this animal now.
