A passing thought..
Something made me wonder today.. are rescue groups in some sort of competition with each other to get animals, especially puppies? If they hear a group has interest in pulling a dog with puppies from a high kill shelter, why do they rush in to go get them themselves? Does it matter who pulls them? Really?

Experience and a better pole
Shadow, 6yo Border CollieYesterday I encountered my second stray dog. Where my first was a very mellow adult pit bull terrier; the second one was a very fearful generic brown puppy, about 4 months old.
The pit bull I had no trouble with and I was able to take him to ACC myself. The puppy (I'm calling him Mr Testicles, or Mr. T for short.) was another story. I followed him from underneath a bus, to the car park on Florida street. He was very scared and growley (understandable under the circumstances). Myself and a coworker was rather unsuccessful nabbing the pup who by this point was under a car. Our lack of experience with a control pole is pretty apparent ;)
Thankfully an Animal Control Officer came to our collective rescue and got him out. I hope he'll be offered to us after his 5 day stray hold.
