[pyrnet] (Fwd) Donations for IL Pyrs

["Judith Stroh Miller" <jsmiller@newmex.com>]

It is my understanding that the Rock Island Shelter opened adoptions to 
the public this past weekend and adopted out most of the 23 pyrs they 
had. Several are being held to turn over to Rescue. The smaller shelter 
will turn their Pyrs over to Rescue, as well as a litter that is being 
privately fostered under the auspices of Rescue. So the Illinois 
Rescuers do need financial help.  There have also been some health 
issues surface with some of the Pyrs.  Expenses will add up quickly for 
those dogs needing Veterinary Care.
