Hoarders in Springfield: 367 Dogs Rescued- Donations needed

[mrs.cos]

Ok, so there was a Animal hoarder in springfield who has over 300 dogs.

 

These dogs are being taken care of at the Franklin County Fairgrounds in Hilliard.

 

The ASPCA is helping out as well.

 

Donations are needed, financially, or items.

I will be collecting them this weekend, as well as volunteering if possible for them. I will be volunteering here, starting on monday. I will also be doing some photography for them as well, to help the adoption process.

Scenes showing conditions at One More Chance Rescue and Adoption, 8393 Lower Valley Pike after 367 dogs were seized from the property Tuesday and were taken to the Franklin County Fairgrounds in Hiliard by the Clark County Humane Society with help from the ASPCA. The Clark County Combined Health District declared the shelter a public health nuisance last week.

This is the conditions that the dogs lived in.

This is horrible. My wife's family is from Springfield. PMing you now. I have items I can give you this weekend.

 

Also, is there a direct way we can donate to the humane society/ASPCA for this specific incident?

[Brendon]

I think on the news they said this isn't the first time something like this has been done by this guy, or something along those lines.

[mrs.cos]

From CR, Nasioc and COS, i have around 120 + Some donations!

 

Thanks guys.

They ask for hard plastic toys, so they last a while with the dogs.

are all the dogs healthy enough or will most be put down?

I, personally, have not been there to assess the situation. I will learn more on monday when i start volunteering there.

 

Some are in critical condition. There are feral dogs and there are socially ok dogs.

Poor dogs I will try to donate blankets/towels and such for them if they are still needed.

Trish, people like to write off what they donate, you can't write off a donation to a person. It's as simple as that.

+1 - it can make a noticable difference on your tax return.

[mrs.cos]

Thats fine, I have offered up PLENTY of information on other ways to donate in here.

All i care about is helping out these dogs.

[Browning]

wtf deletes?

Trish -

 

My wife is a Vet/office mgr at SOS ohio. I'll pass some info along.

[Clifford Automotive]

Seriously?

[MrMeanGreen]

There's seems to be a lot of angst concerning this thread, no offense Trish.

 

The issue I have is, why this? With the multitudes of hoarding and abandoned <insert living beings here>, why now?

 

I hate situations like this that turn into a pissing match and no way is the right way. The Paypal link is being removed due to concerns of it not being an accredited charity. If people wanna donate, then PM Trish or donate hard goods to the organization handing the dogs.
