Rescuers devote a lot of energy trying to close down the puppymills and back yard breeders, the places that breed grief--that victimize the animals and the poor unsuspecting families that love and lose their beloved pets because of greed.

Most Rescuers drive old cars, repairs put on the backburner because yet another poor soul needs expensive vetting. Rescuers will do without things others probably take for granted---because money only goes so far and the number of animals needing help never diminishes.

We take calls at all hours of the day and night. Why not--not a one of us sleeps well after the horrors we've seen--and when we do sleep, we hear the whimpering of those animals in our dreams. Please visit Pyrangel Rescue Network's website at http://www.greatpyreneesrescue.net. Look under "All About Rescue" to learn more.

What do rescue fees pay for?
Read about Hope and Freedom at http://www.dogality.com. Perhaps you'd like to read Eleanor's Rescue. http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/dog_rescue/73609. Eleanor's vet bills have exceded $1500, she will likely be here until she dies--as few wish to take on a senior Pyr.

Or read about Shelby, http://www.greatpyreneesrescue.net/rbmemorial.htm.

Or the TN 5, http://www.greatpyreneesrescue.net/rescues2.htm.
In January, PRN was having a 19 week old rescue spayed in a clinic near Knoxville--the clinic called to tell me 5 Pyrs had just been dumped. I also had a Rescue in KY. In just two days I charged the neutering and vetting of 7 dogs to my credit cards. The females of the TN 5 will require extensive fostering. They were afraid and unsocialized, and very malnourished.

Are the fees too high?
