Animal CrossPosting

Please don’t stop loving me just because I’ve grown old. I’m still the same heart that’s loved you from the very beginning. My devotion hasn’t changed—I’ll treasure you for every moment I have left.

SB 201, a bill to make it illegal for Utah pounds to kill animals that rescue groups are willing to save, has passed the Utah House and Senate and is awaiting the Governor’s signature.

The bill, modeled after The No Kill Advocacy Center’s Animal Rescue Act, requires “shelters” to notify qualified groups two days before killing animals and allow their rescue. If signed into law, it will save lives, save money, spare rescuer suffering, and bring in millions of dollars in tax revenue.

In California, for example, a similar law has been on the books since 1998. It has increased the number of animals transferred to rescue groups rather than killed from 12,526 a year to 99,783 — a nearly 700% increase, all at no cost to taxpayers.

​In fact, it resulted in a potential cost savings of over $4,000,000 statewide for killing and destruction of remains. Over 2,000,000 animals have been saved since the law’s inception.

The No Kill Advocacy Center has model legislation for individuals seeking to enact a similar law in their city, county, or state: https://nokilladvocacycenter.org/the-toolkit/the-animal-rescue-act.

After years of service protecting communities, some retired K-9 heroes are abandoned or neglected. These loyal dogs deserve care, dignity, and a safe retirement. Will you stand up for them?

Bohdi is 2 yrs old no cats for him. He’s super dog friendly . He’s housebroken and crate trained . He’s a good boy will be fostered in Lansdale , PA area.

**update: adopted at the shelter 🥰🥰🥰

Winslow has been given the grace of ONE FINAL EXTENSION until Monday, March 23. After that, there are no more chances.

He is only 3 years old and has so much life left to live… but right now, he is out of time.

Winslow is:
✔️ Sweet and gentle
✔️ Dog-friendly (no cats)
✔️ Calm and loving
✔️ Desperate for someone to choose him

He doesn’t understand why he’s still there… watching others leave while he waits.

👉 He needs a rescue OR adopter committed by Monday 3/23
👉 Pledges are critical to help attract rescue backing

Every share matters. Every dollar pledged helps give rescues the support they need to step in. Every person who sees this increases his chance.

Elizabethtown, NC

Please don’t scroll past him.
Please don’t assume someone else will step up.

👉 SHARE this post
👉 PLEDGE if you can
👉 TAG rescues, friends, anyone who can help

Winslow is out of time—but he is not out of hope yet.
Let’s make sure Monday is not the end of his story.

We tried to get a big adoption celebration photo.

Pip said absolutely not.
His adopter agreed.

No posing. No smiling. No “everybody look happy.”

So instead, here’s a very serious photo of two individuals who would both like to go home now.

Pip wouldn’t look at the camera.
His adopter looked like he was being held hostage by a blue bench.

Zero enthusiasm.
Zero participation.

But also… zero hesitation about leaving together.

Just a quiet “yeah… this is my person.”

And honestly?
That’s how you know.

Which… mission accomplished.

And honestly?
That’s kind of perfect. ❤️
