What organization monitors area Animal Shelters?

There is an Animal Shelter in Porter County, Indiana that needs to be checked on as far as the care of the animals and the general operation of the facility. Is there an animal-rights organization that makes periodically checks on Animal Shelters?

Have you tried calling your local humane society? In our city there are Animal Control agents there that do this type of thing but its not true in all cities as our neighboring city does not have this.
Hope this helps.

How long does it take to adopt a god from the humane society?

We are going down and filling out an ap tomorrow for a dog from the humane society…I’m so excited! But I am wondering how long it takes from the time you fill out the ap to when you get to take the dog home?
ya I mean a dog, not God, obviously :)
You guys are all weird…but really funny.

Since we are fast approaching Easter, he is risen indeed…

But still not up for adoption…

Each Shelter is different, ours takes 2 days. Good luck getting a dog, you can let him think you are god!

A Shelter Dog’s Story

A shelter dog’s story: Watch the story of how an ill-mannered former shelter dog, Vinny Love, transforms into a wonderful companion with talent!

I didn’t raise him from when he was a puppy. In fact, I know nothing of his history. He’s not purebred. And he didn’t have the perfect manners, in fact he had aggression issues! However, with training, he was able to transform into a great dog with wonderful manners. I see tons of awesome purebred Retrievers, German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Border Collies, and Jack Russell Terriers doing stunts and obedience but Vinny and I are proof that mix-breed shelter dogs can do it too, EVEN the ones with behavior issues!

Our goal through these videos is to not only showcase Vinny Love’s talent, but more importantly, show the world that there are MILLIONS of remarkable animals just like Vinny being euthanized and KILLED in animal shelters worldwide. If Vinny and I have even inspired 1 person to adopt his/her next animal through our videos, we’ve done our job.
