Question:
:tissue: We have over 60+ dogs. We had to euth this morning because we have no room and adoptions are so low. Then, to make matters even worse, someone drops off 7 5week old lab puppies..................because they are owner turn in, they could be put down in the morning, we just are out of room.

This is just awful for the poor Babies at Stark. Stark gets such beautiful dogs.

Pet Tips and Tricks
Help Your Pet Beat The Heat This Summer
Pets, like people, can overheat and suffer heatstroke. Always offer plenty of water before, during, and after outdoor activities, and don't exercise or play hard with your pet in the heat of the day. (Some animals, particularly those with light- colored noses, may benefit from sunscreen for lengthy outside exposure—ask your vet.) Make sure your pet has a cool, shaded area to rest in if he is outdoors. Never leave your pet unattended in a car in the summer, even for a short period of time, as temperatures can rise fast!

Answer:
I could be there in the morning to get the puppies!! I am not a rescue - will they charge me the adoption fee for them all or will they cut me a break just to get them out of there and give them a chance?

Answer:
We normally have a very high adoption rate. WE don't know what is happening.........dogs are coming out of the woodwork! We hardly ever have to put down for space, this is a very very sad day.
