WolfdogsVT Working hard and getting things taken care of. Guess you could say I'm getting in shape too since I ride my bike 5 miles one way to work. view more
I am a Rescuer at heart. Meaning that I spend a lot of time working with rescues at this time. I try to help in as many ways as I can. If I do come across an Animal in my area that needs help I do everything that I can to help them. Being surrounded by "No-Kill Shelters" means that I do not have any Urgents in my area.
Vermont is a very Wolfdog friendly state,Wolfdogs are regulated as Domestic Dogs, but they do not recognize any Rabies Vaccine for them and it is illegal to import wolfdogs from other areas into the state without first aquiring a permit.
I am looking to establish a Wolfdog/Animal Sanctuary in my area, at which time I will apply for 501c Status and for a broader import permit that will allow the import and export of rescue animals. I considered taking shortcuts to speed up the process, but I have decided to pursue all "Legal Avenues" so that I have no problems with suddenly having to surrender several Animals to the State. Better to wait awhile and insure the safety of those I wish to help, rather then finding myself putting animals that have already had rough lives back into "Harms Way".
So in the meanwhile I will continue to assist rescues by providing information to people about Wolfdogs in need of help and educational info and videos to those seeking it.
Who I'd like to meet: The Following Poem Was Posted On One Of My Wolfdog Groups...Author Unknown
*HERE IN THIS HOUSE
I will never know the loneliness I hear in the barks of the other dogs "outthere".
I can sleep soundly, assured that when I wake my world will not have changed.
I will never know hunger, or the fear of not knowing if I'll eat.
I will not shiver in the cold, or grow weary from the heat.
I will feel the sun's heat, and the rain's coolness, and be allowed to smell all that can reach my nose.
My fur will shine, and never be dirty or matted.
Here in this house...
There will be an effort to communicate with me on my level.
I will be talked to and, even if I don't understand, I can enjoy the warmth of the words.
I will be given a name so that I may know who I am among many.
My name will be used in joy, and I will love the sound of it!
Here in this house...
I will never be a substitute for anything I am not.
I will never be used to improve peoples' images of themselves.
I will be loved because I am who I am, not someone's idea of who I should be.
I will never suffer for someone's anger, impatience, or stupidity.
I will be taught all the things I need to know to be loved by all.
If I do not learn my lessons well, they will look to my teacher for blame.
Here in this house...
I can trust arms that hold, hands that touch...knowing that, no matter what they do, they do it for the good of me.
If I am ill, I will be doctored.
If scared, I will be calmed.
If sad, I will be cheered.
No matter what I look like, I will be considered beautiful and thought to be of value.
I will never be cast out because I am too old, too ill, too unruly, or not cute enough.
My life is a responsibility, and not an afterthought.
I will learn that humans can almost, sometimes, be as kind and as fair as dogs.
Your work is much valued. The Wild Ones sing for you as do I!
Thanks for your friendship. May the Solstice Sun and the Full Moon Rising bring Light to Your Life and Bless you and Yours with Life's Abundance in All Forms!
