[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 406530, member: 1169"] We got our dog in the fall from a no kill shelter in our area. She had been part of a shipment of animals from a kill-shelter in Kentucky. Appearently, we have more homes up here and they ship a truckful of animal up north every Saturday. We chose this shelter because they did not insist on interviewing the family and doing home visits -- I knew Tigger would not handle being turned down for a dog (talk about heartbreaking) and if the person doing the screening wasn't familiar with Autism, I can see them saying no. Our plans for when Tigger gets older, is to start a true no-kill shelter where the only animals put to sleep are those who are in agony and cannot be helped. Our goal is to staff the shelter with special needs workers. We're going to call it "Twice Blessed" -- giving special needs adults jobs and saving animals. [/QUOTE]
