Rescues gone bad so who can the animals trust???

Pictures don't lie. Take the time to view each picture from Tom and Amber Adkins property of Reidsville NC and you decide which side of rescue you are on. These poor dogs were pulled from the Goldsboro Shelter in NC, transported to Reidsville NC and placed on the Adkins Farm where they made make shift dog kennels and placed more than 15 dogs in one small space. Many dogs ran free and due to lack of food they formed a pack and took down and horse and a goat to feed of off. Other dogs resorted to eating the smaller dead dogs that were in their own pen. As for access to clean water do you see any in these pictures? Also view how these animals were transported, do you feel that the Adkins Racing Trailer is humane to transport dogs across the street let alone all the way up to Pancake Hollow Farm's in New York? Image how hot it was inside this trailer with no air circulation, no wonder why so many die in transport.

So with this do you know who is pulling your shelter friend, what Vet is being used, if any medical treatment is being given to them, are they getting their health certifications to travel to another state, are they stopping every 4 hrs to allow the dog to walk, use the bathroom and have food or water breaks, where are they being housed and held before their packed up and shipped out on transport to you and how many are being stuffed on that transport. 

Are you really saving a life here or causing them to die a more inhumane death? Please note the dead pups on the ground that this rescuer never cared to remove from the others dogs to see or catch dieses from.



NEWS STORYDog Then Go To CourtPosted on October 14, 2010 by bats91360

REIDSVILLE, N.C. (WGHP) – Rockingham County Sheriffs added 19 more charges to a couple accused of animal abuse.

Tommy and Amber Adkins were each charged an additional 19 counts of Cruelty to Animals Tuesday. Both met the $5,000 bond on the new charges Tuesday evening and were scheduled to appear in court Wednesday.

The couple had already been charged with six counts of Cruelty to Animals when sheriff’s deputies found six dead dogs at their home. The couple is scheduled to return to court Nov. 11.

Beside the six dead dogs, 112 living animals were found at the Adkins’ residence, including 93 dogs, two ferrets, five chinchillas, five guinea pigs, six goats and one horse.

Deputies also witnessed several dogs attacking a horse and goat and other dogs feeding off the carcasses of the six dead dogs laying about the property.

Tommy Adkins did not deny that there were dead dogs on his property. He said that he is new to rescuing animals and that is a volunteer for Pancake Hollow Farm and Rescue Inc., in Highland, N.Y.

Pancake Hollow officials told FOX8 Tuesday they would be picking up the remaining animals, and future volunteers will be screened more closely.

A judge released the animals to the Rockingham County Sheriff’s Office on Wednesday.

Some of the remaining dogs will be shuttled to Guilford County Animal Shelter on Wednesday, while others will be put up for adoption at other area shelters. Some of those shelters include: Virginia Beach SPCA Norfolk SPCA, and tSaving Grace inWake Forest.

“Some of them look really bad and we don’t know if they’re going to make it but we’re going to do everything we can,” said Marsha Williams, director of the Guilford County Animal Shelter. “We’re going to get them on some (intravenous) and medicines that they need.”

The dogs at the Guilford County Shelter will remain quarantined for 14 days before being adopted NEWS STORYDog Then Go To CourtPosted on October 14, 2010 by bats91360 REIDSVILLE, N.C.

I do feel so bad for these dogs,but I bet I know where the animals food went to. The owners look to me like they never missed any meals in their life time. I would hope they would go to jail.
